Luv my R51 - unfortunately the only 3rd party accessory outfit, DangerCo, is apparently no more.

They would have had a winner on their hands with the Gen 2 if they had fixed the mags. As it is, I was able to tweak mine for better reliability. Love the R51 with the exception of field stripping the thing - it makes a Ruger Mark 1,2,3 look sane by comparison!

I am a life-long gun lover and I have owned several Remington rifles, but somehow I overlooked the Remington pistols until I stumbled across a model 51 a few years ago.

I fell in love with the design, size and feel of the weapon and then several months ago I found out about the existence of the R51.

I was told to stay away from them by friends, but that just made me want to research them to find out why.

I ended up finding one of these sadly panned pistols and bought it.

This little orphan has seen very little action and I figure that even if I get an occasional stovepipe, that with the gen II guns, that like many other weapons, there probably is a break-in period I will experience.

A lot of guns are known to need as many as 200 rounds fired through them before they are "broken in" but people don't castigate those weapons.

I guess these guns hit a point of no return of criticism and that was sad for them as well as for Remington...one thing that I don't understand is why it seems Remington never seemed to correct the follower issue in the mag.

Anyway, I'm 66 and live in the beautiful state of Tennessee!You cannot see attachments on this board.

Nope.  Only option is to send the barrel out....if that's even an option now.
