I have one of these in .380. Super easy to point and shoot. Everyone I have ever taught to shoot says that the Remington is the one they were most comfortable with.
Steve, I saw one of those last week at the store I work at: Davenport Guns! The customer was looking for a holster for it! His was a 380. I couldn't believe that he was shooting it!
The Remington Model 51 was made from harder steel over Colt's softer steel. I had both and they were .32 ACP until they were stolen. The Model 51 was a smoother firing pistol as the Colt was prone to muzzle flip upon firing.
Its probably a mistake about the slide starting to move only after the breach block hits the stop. At first bolt and slide are travelling together like in blowback guns, then the bolt hits the stop, but the slide got enough energy to tilt the bolt out of this recess. Then bolt and slide go together again.
For getting the slide on, I just partially incert an empty magazine, hold down the hammer and pull and hold the trigger. This way you can let the barrel back into the slide without having to do that 3 handed operation you just did
I have one I just got, and its in serious need of cleaning. I haven't found out how to open up the bottom yet, but I have ideas I want to try. I think the grip pin is the key to the kingdom, so to speak.
Thanks for giving such good information. To a gun I do use. Not the easiest to disassemble. Like anything else. The more you do it. The easiest it gets
Thank you so much for this very information video. Can you please consider making one on the take down of the Ortgies pocket pistol? It’s a wonderful little contemporary of witch there are still quite a few around.
I would like to see two pistols in your program. One is the German-made Haenel .25 cal pistol. It has a unique system and is a nice-looking little pistol. The second pistol is the Sauer & Sohns 38H. It is a .32 cal German-made pistol. It has features that make it really uniques and classy.
How does the breech-block backend rotate up with the slide moving back? What is translating the backward force to an upward force to move the breech-block out of the lock?
Good watch ty. Neat breech design. Could you do a video on the evolution of the Beretta 92 and parts interchangeability? Just bought a used Beretta 92G-SD and want to spruce it up for high round count shooting and a surpressor just for s&g.
(Semi) automatic pistols were fairly new and a lot of talented people were designing and patenting their versions. Pedersen had to work around everyone else's patents.

I too have one. Easy to shoot. Love it

Love these instructional videos on these classic pistols!

Got me a 51 not long ago! Definitely a cool little gun.
Excellent review. Never seen one for sale but I can see why they would sell even today. Thanks
Thanks For The Detailed Theory Of Operation And Field Stripping Tips 😀😊😊😊😊🧰👨🏼🔧

Very, very interesting. As European, I discovered something new, thanks
One of My Favorites John Pedersen Made Some Great Designs General George S Patton Carried One 😀😀😊👍🏼
I was going to write exactly what you wrote !! what a coincidence :)

As always an interesting and great video. I’d like to see a video on the trapdoor Springfield.
love these videos keep em coming brother
This pistol in .380 is my daily carry.
Only my army model 1911 do I love more.
Thank you for this elegant explanation.
Thanks for the video.. I see the rational and now I see why the browning design 1910/1955 was popular if having more recoil...

Great videos love to see a savage 1899 or a 30-40 krag
Have you done a video on the Deutsch Werke Ortgies? That would be an interesting video.

Could you show the 1903 Colt, with the Remington 51

Brownells clone of the Model 51 when?
Any thing would be better than Remingtons attempt with the R-51
Does anyone know of a list of years of manufacture (serialization) on these?

Trigger assembly
My dad owns one!
Yes complicated but there aim was a great easy carry
Lewis Gun 😀 Please WW1 Aircraft Mounted Twins 👍🏼
looks similar to 1903 hammerless (hidden hammer)..
Do a Lee Enfield
Music is too loud. Distracting
So complicated and over engineered.
Mr. Petterson was obviously a German
He was the son of Danish immigrants.

Really? Awesome. That's close enough.
Not really all that complicated, just not necessary for a 32

Colt M1917
Wow that’s complicated😐
