A general rule is. Holes kill things.

Where you put the bullet is far more important than what you put it there with.

Obviously the patent on the original lazertag pistol is up. I see striking similarities.

Might not look so futuristic with the laser of.

Oh! That's right! It would have to be a sub-compact made by Tikka that came with a free Sitka Gear shamwow to get most peoples attention not in the (509) area code.

If it comes with a shamwow I'm in! As soon as it comes in mens calibers though. Now if I could get one converted to 50 GI........

Yup, also the top picture makes it look like an over sized sub compact.
The G26-27 are smaller, as is the XDs. The G29 is very close in size as well, and with 11 rounds of 10 on tap.
I'll pass on the r51

XD-S .45 is crap(Own one, shot it twice)you better be able to make your first shot count because that handgun sucks for double taps. Now some People can play the internet guru and claim their wonderful but I own and have shot a chit load of .45's and the XD-S is a control nightmare in double tapping and rapid fire. The XD-S 9mm may be the ticket. Maybe M&P will come out of the Stone Age and offer something new and catch up with Springfield.

I think some of you miss the point. Do the research on the original Remington R51. The R51 isn't all new for 2014 it's a redesign and a chambering change  to a old Remington handgun.  It isn't all new to compete with the modern line up. Bottom line is, if you want to play the compare game. I would take a Glock hands down pretty much every day of the week and twice on Sunday over pretty much anything on the market when it comes to a carry gun.

So compare away if you have nothing better to do, or don't understand the the arrival of the R51.👍 Math is simple, common sense is in short supply.

I think it feels cheep and the trigger was similar to a hi-point.
