Single stack delayed action factory threaded pistol? yup.

As far as calibers the R-51 is rated for 9MM+P ammo. A .40 caliber version will be next in the lineup. The magazine capacity is 7+1. Of course this is a compact pistol with a single stack magazine. Night sights are also an option. A Crimson Trace model will be available as well as one with a threaded barrel for a suppressor.

The mechanism of the model 51 is unique and only used in one handgun and that’s the model 51. The layout of the Remington 51 is similar to the Walther PPK pistol in the use of a stationary barrel and recoil spring surrounding the barrel. However, the unique feature is the use of a locking breech block within the slide. When the pistol is in battery, the breech block rests slightly forward of the locking shoulder in the frame. When the cartridge is fired, the bolt and slide move together a short distance rearward powered by the energy of the cartridge as in a standard blowback system. When the breech block contacts the locking shoulder, it stops, locking the breech. The slide continues rearward with the momentum it acquired initially. This allows chamber pressure to drop to safe levels while the breech is locked and the cartridge slightly extracted. Once the bullet leaves the barrel and pressure drops, and the continuing motion of the slide lifts the breech block from its locking recess through a cam arrangement, continuing the operating cycle.

That means this should be a hush puppy with that delayed action. Might be one of the few firearms that makes ownership of a micro 9mm can make sense.

Pretty much looks like a Makarov to me.

It's the back half of the slide and rear sight I hate. But I agree that it sounds like a perfect host

I read this article today. Depending on price it might be a good one.

That and how soon Remington puts out the threaded model.

Meh if tornado tech , m60 Joe or ft Daniel can't thread it... I don't want it anyway.

I think I saw something that said MSRP of $350. That seems really low so I have a hard time believing that, but I have been wrong before.

I'd rather have a solid barrel than rely on an adapter which uses adhesives.

That looks like something the gay version of 007 would be carryin
