I noticed a lot of gun shops in northern Indiana are offering the Remington R51 for around $200. Don’t be tempted by this. I bought a Remington R51 two weeks ago. It’s the biggest pile of crap I’ve ever had. The grip safety needs to be jiggled to engage and the slide won’t rack with a full magazine. Remington has told me on two different calls that these issues are normal and it should all go away after a few hundred rounds. I’ve wasted 500 rounds through the pistol and the problems persist.
It it really is a good shooter once these two issues are worked around. It just takes a lot of time to get to a point where the gun can be fired. Definitely not a CCW pistol.
