Can I be directed to where one can find takedown instructions for the Rem 51

Google "Remington model 51 takedown".

IIRC the only trick is removing the grips .Make sure you know how before you try !! Otherwise you'll break them !
That's one of the very best pistols ever designed .Unfortunately I had to sell mine.

Mine is so well designed that if I put my hat where the first empty lands, the rest of the clip will land in the hat.
Neat pistol, self points, you almost don't need the sights.
Really worth keeping.
Good luck!

Thanks Guys
