I have a second generation. Mine works. Nice size, points well. Yes, a pain in the butt to disassemble. Friend gave me a couple of first gen mags. The followers are different. Emailed Remington to see if I could get new followers; no joy. Probably because Remington doesn't manufacture the mags (just a guess on my part but most companies farm out mags).
Neat design. Obviously Remington screwed the pooch on the first ones but I think they have figured it out. |

The R51's that are coming out of the factory now are all sorted out and great shooters. I don't think there is a better gun in the price point actually.

Mine has been GTG also.
Soft shooting, and as previously said, a great value. |

The gen 1 mags worked. So far anyway. The gen 1 mags have a flat follower. The gen 2 mags have a ridge in the middle of the follower. Gen 2 mags have a larger base plate as well.
