need a trigger too.

dangerco website still says out of stock.

Thanks.  That's what I was afraid of.

I seem to recall DangerCo was planning on doing another run of R51 triggers, sometime in 2020. 

Their website shows these are out of stock.  Has anyone heard any news about this?

Thanks for the summary.  That is a good start.

thank you everyone.  Good to know that even Rem's techs see this, and brand new guns in the gun store case show it.

I looked at the takedown pin, and it is tight.  I think this is just the way it is.

I acknowledge that taking the wheel to the frame is a bad idea.  I've been known to do bad ideas, even when I know they are bad ideas.  Although the mis-alignment is stupid and it bothers me, I'm not sure this bad idea is worth it or if I'd be bothered less with the finishing mismatch.

Looks just like mine!

The thing still shoots - mostly, depending on which mag I put in there.   

I'm considering hitting the frame with a wheel and making it match the slide - but I really want to make sure this isn't because I lost some small part that supposed to go inside.

That end looks good.  I'll try to get a picture later this evening.

Sebvox.  Putting the original barrel back in was the first thing I did.  That did not change a thing.

Has anyone see a misalignment between the slide and frame (see pics in attachments below). 

If so, can you tell me what is going on?

If Cameron is watching, I missed my chance at a trigger too. 

+1 to the waiting list

Thanks.  It seems the sliding block really locks up against cams cut into the slide, so maybe the wear on the frame only go so far.

You have may more rounds through the thing than I will in the next decade, so the future looks good.

Thanks David for the update.

It is good to know the springs are reasonably priced.

I was wondering, after 2500 rounds, how are the aluminum parts of the frame that come in contact with the steel holding up?  After the initial wearing off of the paint, does the erosion on the aluminum part continue?

I trimmed the bottom of the breach block like yours.   There are no 7+1 issues. 

To be fair, my magazines have been hacked and modified so many times its hard to say.   

I just went through your video and noticed the same thing regarding the projection.  Thinking I saw something new, I left you a note on YouTube.  What your thinking sounds **exactly right**.

... now where is my dremel tool...

I think its interesting that the dimensions for the magazines lips are **still** backwards, narrower in the front than the rear.  If the gun runs, who cares!

by user Big10.  Re-posted because what we have been hearing from Remington and others is to remove a coil from the spring.  The following discussion seems to make sense and suggests the spring isn't strong enough.

The problem is NOT that the mag springs are too strong. The symptoms your gun is showing is often too WEAK of a magazine spring. The round is escaping the control of the magazine under recoil (inertia of the round tries to keep the round in the same position -- an object at rest tends to stay at rest) while the gun and magazine are moving backwards. But the pressure of the spring is too WEAK to hold the round in the magazine. When the the round pops free of the mag, it will be IN FRONT of the extractor hook. The next round below comes up to the top of magazine, pushes the escaped round up into the path of the slide on return, causing the bind between slide, round, and barrel . This is true for both the "weird horizontal pinched round" and the "stove piped" round. if you remove a round or two from the mag, it won't have the problem since the spring has less weight of the rounds to push up, keeping sufficient pressure on the top round.

Three points: (1) were any of these jammed rounds UNDER the extractor when you looked? I'm guessing "no". And if so, then they were released from the magazine BEFORE the disconnector rail of the slide pushed the round out of the magazine. (2) If you download the magazine, does it ever jam like this? A downloaded magazine is often used to prevent jams when magazine springs are weak (think Viet Nam and M16 -- 18 rounds vs 20 rounds.) (3) The old axiom: first round or last round of a magazine that jams a gun is a weak magazine spring issue; the fix is to install a stronger spring! Want to reproduce the issue in another gun? Got a 1911? disassemble the mag and cut a couple of coils from the mag spring. Reassemble and watch the same jams magically appear. Quod Erat Demostrandum.
