Remington 51
I discovered two things on my Remington 51 in the last week.
First if you pull the slide back and hold it, release the grip safety the slide stays open. This makes it easier to clean the barrel after shooting the pistol.
Second the bullets were not loading into the chamber of the barrel on the first round. Well a gunsmith told me to hit the magazine on the palm of my hand and this angles the shells upward a small bit and it goes right into the chamber properly. This is using newly manufactured magazines which had been giving me problems and now they are working great. The gunsmith told me the pistol is good but pesky in loading the chamber. I had been very disappointed before I was told this method. The old magazine was somewhat worn and allowed the shells to be angled a little upward and always going in okay. Now the new magazines are okay also.
