    Well, you certainly can't fault that kind of customer service, providing the new pistols live up to expectations.

    If they live up to those words it'd be a change in the right direction for the Remington of recent years.

    Wait and see.

    I'm already annoyed with Remington because of the secret design changes in the 1100 shotgun; interchangeable barrels are no longer interchangeable.

    Not sure I want to be surprised again....

    There have been a lot of problems with the R51 so far. This is the Remingtons' way of trying to make up to a lot of disappointed buyers. They hyped it a the next best thing and their experts praised it up and down for its reliability, and control-ability, and a lot of them failed miserably. The R51 isn't even listed on the Rem. website anymore.

    I thought this was going to be about the old .380ACP
    The last Remington 51 was produced in 1927.

    You might think in 87 years they could pick a new model number !!!

    They need to replace those "numerous experts" they claimed to have had try the pistols out, if there was ever any experts at all [:(!]
