So I picked up a Remington R-51 tonight from the local dealer/pawn shop. New with a spare mag and BGC $354.00
Laid out a cloth and field stripped it to make sure its clean for this weekend at the range.

WOW not an easy pistol to break down you end up working against the recoil spring (which is stout) a lot of the process. Not complicated and I am sure once 500 rds is through it it will be come easier.
All parts look to be very well made all machine work is finished very well.
Don't like the grip safety in that it has an audible click when being compressed.
Trigger is a little stout but then its brand new and an EDC pistol so thats what you get.
All and all on first blush I like it fits my hand and the wife's well sights easy to find and use.
A day at the range will tell a lot.
Certainly a nice finished piece.
Wouldn't mind a metal trigger for it. Wonder if anyone will make one. I guess I could make one myself.
