R51 General Discussion / Re: Grips?

I bought the set off E-Bay they were a little dull so I touched them up . They fit perfectly, very well made and best of all they still use the OEM grip screws. They are slightly contoured and feel good compared to the slab side grips that come on it.

R51Fan,
     My serial number is H023102R51 on my Smokey!   I see no reason to hide the last
three numbers,   If my gun gets stolen, I will still  have the number to give the
police.

There have been instances of fraudulent sellers on gun auction sites using serial numbers and photos harvested from sites such as this.  I doubt that it is common but it has happened and that would be one reason to not share the complete serial number.

Peace favor your sword,
Kirk
Some FFl`s such as Buds online gun shop when they have multiple items offer you your choice by choosing serial #s

Sadly, I dont see anyone selling Remington branded wood grips anymore.

There is a guy on ebay selling the Remington wood grips.  He had 10 pair but is down to 4 pair.
He is down to 3 pair now. They might need some attention but look good overall .

General Discussion / Re: R51 after action report.

I`d forgotten about the different site settings , good thing you brought that up but I`m a combat shooter as far as that goes. But I got my 51 in january and run 200 rnds of +P thru it 100% perfect with good accuracy. But I had the forsite from reading the reviews and dry cycled the gun before firing it and quickly found out it was going to give problems. So end result was I didn`t try to shoot it with other than 6 in the mag and was 100%. The only other issue was if I used my Lulu loader to load a mag it would promote the rounds to nose dive in the mag so just a rap or two in my palm would straighten that out quickly. They do need to have better quality mags witch I don`t believe is going to happen. But I did`nt buy mine for carry but would trust it. I just like the looks and the pederson action.

That I could`nt say but Classic Fire Arms just got some more in last week. They were selling like hot cakes in january. It took me quite a while to find one because I wanted one from the Huntsville plant in which almost all that I could run across were from the Charlottesville plant.
