They also made it very clear that if you use anything other than the exactly 3 or 4 loads that Remington recommends for the gun, it not only won't work, but it creates very dangerous situations with case bulging, etc. Additionally, using other than the sanctioned ammo will cause the gun to jam up making it almost impossible to disassemble.

I read that article too.

IMHO, any gun that won't safely and properly digest SAAMI specification compliant ammo from all the major manufacturers isn't ready for prime time, although I would make exceptions for some specialty niche guns like the tiny Seecamps.

I don't call that unpaid.
In fact, if anyone has a R51 they don't want to hassle with, I'll buy it from you for what you paid and I'll send it back to Remington.



I call it bribery to get you out of the inevitable class action lawsuit.

Call it that if you like. I'll take the bribe.
Come to think of it, that's more than I ever got out of any class action lawsuit. If memory serves, I got a coupon and the lawyers got millions.

My offer stands.
