flawed so much so it was recalled by the factory and then the guns sat in limbo for almost two years people were offered chits from remington to exchange for rNUMBER_TOKEN NUMBER_TOKEN's because it took him two years almost to try and fix the flaws of the gun but if you go back and watch my old videos there wasn't really any fixing the gun the gun just continued to have problems and so you know you look at that and i'm sorry little buddy you can't even fix this thing with the force but you look at this thing and it has all the right ideas okay so it was designed to be a a compact carry firearm you can see the swoopy line here in the rear so if you're drawing it from a pocket it's not going to snag on anything the slide was fairly easy to manipulate it fired from a seven round magazine which is kind of limited by today's standards but it used an old design that remington had originally used before called the hesitation lock developed by a gentleman by the name of pedersen and the hesitation lock was different than a browning action it has a little bolt in here and it has a little block and it's i'm not going to field strip it you can go watch one of our old videos for that but it's a pain in the rear end to take apart it definitely takes practice and patience to learn how to take it apart it was intended to be a novices gun something that you could just buy and easily learn how to shoot but field maintenance was a huge problem for me and one of the biggest things i dinged on that and the magazines especially the first gin were horribly flawed they would have problems but even the second gen magazines i still found problems with it has a grip safety back here that is so hard that it's easy to grab the gun and not squeeze it tight enough there i squeezed it tight enough there i actually have a nice tight hold but the grip safety is not engaged so the gun won't fire so the grip safety was bad had reliability issues the trigger literally is made up it's like a polymer trigger and it moves back and forth so when you put your finger on the trigger and start pulling it you'll feel the trigger like move if you're right handed you'll feel the trigger move to the left as you're pulling it horrible trigger nothing about this gun was done right now the original model NUMBER_TOKEN was a widely popular pocket pistol back at you know just after the turn of the century but when they brought it back to life remington launched it with much fanfare and it was a horrible flop and it wound up becoming one of the many nails in the coffin of remington which finally put them out of business they promised it in other calibers and things like that but they never got it working with nine millimeter so it was dropped and remington went out of business all right let's take a look at the next gun in line here that i think might wind up on a forgotten weapons video in the future if you guys haven't checked out primary arms online please swing by and check out their website they have all sorts of inventory that ranges from firearms to accessories really good prices fast shipping outstanding customer support if you use the code mac mac and you purchase a pa branded optic or red dot sight with a magnified
