    If it feels good in the hand I'm buying. The breech block blowback design has got me all hot and bothered.

    I think I'm in too. As long as they run well, Remington has a winner right there.

    Just a warning, the last new gun that came out that I decided was such a good idea that I was going to buy it was the Beretta arx160, and we all know how well that ones working out.

    It's an interesting looking piece. I kinda like it. I kinda don't like it. I don't know. I'm so confused.

    I wonder if they will sell them at Dick's.
    I agree with you about the pocket thing. That's why I put it in quotations. I had a Kahr PM9, and tried to pocket carry it a few times. Unless you wear fat mans pants, they feel like a 2x6 in your pocket, and look like it too, and dang near impossible to get out in under a minute.

    Hey, at that price, as long as the trigger doesn't suck and it doesn't have a mag safety, I'm in for one.....

    Hey Glock, see what ppl can do when they look at current market trends?
    Yeah, and apparently the grip safety is the only external safety. I like that.

    That was my first reaction too, until I thought about it: the slope on the rear of the sight really does make it snag-free, and with zero slope on the front, you can easily rack the slide one-handed.

    Hell, I swapped the stock rear sight on my XD-S with an Ameriglo block sight, and had it installed backwards just so I could have a truly vertical face facing forwards for one-handed manipulations.

    I have a PSP in my safe (which I found for a good price), and it's my favorite pure shooter...but the manual of arms (with the mag release in the heel) is too wonky for me to put it in the carry rotation. Had I found a P7M8 for a decent price...

    I hope that they make an extended and threaded barrel version for suppressed shooting.

    My Grandfather said "it's a 51 that I got in 51". I now understand what he was talking about.

    After reading a few other things on the R51, I may just get one.

    I believe I read they are coming out with a threaded barrel version.

    Looks very much like a HK VZ70 the worlds first polymer pistol or a South African Vektor Pistol.
