Roverron 01-02-2014 08:09 PM

I like the original one better

milkmanjoe 01-02-2014 10:18 PM

I'll buy one....looks like fun, boys will tear it up, and it's cheap.

Of course, watch for the video!!!

This^^

But, it's so ugly that I think I actually like it. I would buy one if it was reliable, time will tell.

The mechanics of it sound interesting. I'd like to see how that grip safety works. I just wonder how safe that is... being single action and just a grip safety. Seems like safety would be off as soon as you grip it to draw from the holster.

It's a Phazer! I don't think it has a "Stun" Setting though.http://i1353.photobucket.com/albums/...ps29eae4c9.jpg

Looks like the pistol that James Bond always had in the early movies....was that a Walther????

It actually looks pretty cool to me. I like the checkered frontstrap, but it looks like that slide will bite you. I'll wait and see. Once enough people buy one and they get the bugs worked out I'll probably grab one.

Yes sir it was...Walther PP and a PPK.

Grouse 01-03-2014 05:57 AM

I like it

girphoto 01-03-2014 06:47 AM

They should have called it

R2D2

It does look a bit odd but kudos to Remington for getting back into the pistol design business. Not much original about their 1911s...They haven't really designed a pistol since what? 1917?...unless you count the XP-100 and that was 1963 - over 50 years ago.

The pistol has some interesting features like the 1911 style trigger system, and the fixed barrel.

Grouse 01-03-2014 09:17 AM

I always liked the 51, but did not care for the .32 or .380 limitations.

I will likely pick one of these up. I like the looks a lot.

DaFadda 01-03-2014 07:13 PM

Actually.... I sorta kinda like it. But if it shoots like my Remington 597 22LR rifle.... (which jams all the time) I would pass on it. BUT.... I maay give this onèshot. It's prettier than a Ruger in a strange futuristic sorta way.....

BlackKnight 01-03-2014 07:20 PM

I'm not too keen on it yet, but then again neither were Glocks when they first came out.

milkmanjoe 01-09-2014 10:39 AM

I cannot believe Remington is selling Star Trek paraphernlia!
