$389 MSRP? So, street price is likely in the $350-60 range....might be wroth picking one up at that price! certainly seems interesting.

 

Anyone notice the location stamped on the frame?

IIRC Remington has had their HQ or something in Charlotte for some time.

I'm not a fan of the grip safety. At this point it doesn't do anything that my XDs doesn't already do.

 

sure is ugly...

Folks said the same thing about Glocks when they first arrived, too.

haha. true

but they sell millions every year. This one could be the next Glock. maybe

 

Remington Outdoor Corp also owns Para which is based in Charlotte

 

New Remington Pistol

The sights look "futuristic" swept back toward each other. Before I read the description I was kind of thinking of the Walther PP series. Could be a first step towards something interesting.

 

It might....although it'd have to be a real shooter to win out over the whole slew of new bandwagon single stacks

This may be a perfect pistol for the wife, she is a little recoil sensitive. With the fixed barrel and high grip placement it may be just right. time will tell though.

 

I dont care for the aesthetics, however it looks like has a nice hand feel much like the old Colt Pocket Model. I'd like to check one out when they hit the market.

 

The more I look at it, the more interested I become. If they are really priced the way TFB says they are, I'll buy one.

 

I like it!

Yeah, they look interesting for sure. I didn't realize that it is a modernized version of one of their old models.

When does the Buck Rogers edition hit the shelves? Certainly looks futuristic...in a 1950's sci-fi kinda way.

 

I'm not sure, but didn't Remington produce a Model 51 semi-auto handgun in the past that this new one strongly resembles?

 

I don't think it's ugly, just a little different. I have to wonder why they stopped building the Pederson action in 1930 and why Remington decided to re-invent it now? Is it just to be different?

Give it a chance, it might feed hollow points. I kid, I kid.... ;sofa

 

I like the roundedness of the back. That would be much better than a pretty gun with sights that
make you bleed after wearing for long periods.

And that's why I'm buying one.

 

Can you set it to stun?

 

Lol! That's what I thought initially as well.

 

Not polymer? Interchangeable grip panels? Trigger that travels straight back like a 1911? Under $375?! In a major caliber (or two)?! Um, yeah...I'll take one. I want to go full buck Rogers and have mine in stainless.
