ed note: Sadly they could never get it to run. Even the Gen2 versions had problems and then, of course, REM themselves disappeared. I was hoping that they would revitalize this forgotten design.


The Remington R51 is REAL. And it is nice. Rem had several displays with the pistols to actually handle. The grip safety is unobtrusive. The synthetic frame is comfortable. Trigger? Not bad! MSRP? $420 and made in the USA. I predict they are going to sell a truckload and add me to the list!

I was disappointed that there wasn't one at Media Day to shoot, but apparently it wasn't quite ready.
