Remington sends Reviewer a hand picked T&E (Testing & Evaluation) handgun for assessment after first epic fail.

Hold me back!

What were they thinking???

Hold me back!

What were they thinking???

This is the part where the "New" CEO of the company flies in every mid to upper level manager, locks the doors and goes berserk for 45 minutes without taking a breath. Severance checks are handed to a very large chunk and security escorts them out of the building without so much as a "see you later". Scorched Earth would not describe my reaction.

Maybe they could send a copy to Gaston Glock to see if he can do anything with it.

Did anyone really expect anything different than this from the company that currently masquerades as Remington?

My Ruger LC9 is looking better everyday.

Yea, that's what we have to remember. This is not Remington. This is a company that owns the Remington name and produces guns that look like Remingtons. Very sad to see. At least you can go to a pawn shop and buy a real gun.

There will definitely not be one of these in my safe. I was a bit curious at first but somewhat sceptical of remingtons marketing claims. I feel sorry for my buddy who already has one pre ordered.

The only people that will purchase that gun are those that "Don't Know", and still think remington is a grand old company of unquestionable reliability......

It sounds to me like they issued it without finishing R&D.

Now, of course I'm guessing but it sounds like the springs they are using are too light. Like maybe a marketing person decided to go with the lightest springs possible to enhance the easy slide pull.

It's a shame because I like this little pistol.

 

[Mike 338]

If these guys can get it done, what's Remington's excuse?

 

[RB Rider]

according to the full page ads they're buying, it's the cats' meow.
that guy above just ring a dinger or somethin'?

 

[Barenjager]

Every cat hacks up a hairball now and then....Remington seems to make it a regular practice.

I'll be keeping my Ruger LC9 too!

Give Remington a few years and maybe they'll get it right. :flute:

Maybe Remington thinks they are Microsoft and wants us to Beta test their
guns for them? :shot:

 

[Mike 338]

Remember the movie Schindler's List? There was a line that went something like, "you'll never see another working shell leave this factory again". I believe that's what we have here.

 

[Magwa45]

What junk! But I like this guy. How often do you see such honesty from a gun writer? Most of them never see a gun they don't like.

When I first saw this new gun, I *Wanted* to like it, and noted its similarity to the early model 51. But after watching this video, I'm hanging onto my revolvers (and probably buying more wheel guns). At least my older Remingotn 870 still goes bang every time.

My sentiments exactly.

 

[dmc12pimp]

Ugly as sin, the answer to a question NO ONE asked, and about as reliable as a US congressman, its just one miss after another for Remington these days....
