Finally popped my C$R cherry

Maxsplat · Apr 4, 2014

So I just won an auction on GB for a beretta 1951 (apologies and thanks to Kazan and abr for outbidding and also not running it up) from Numrich. I paid by credit card over the phone as well as emailed my C$R over as well last night. What's the usual turn around time for them to ship and do they send any tracking info when it ships?

Never bought a gun from them , but congrats on the purchase!!

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but what is Numrich listed under on Gunbroker? I tried to search by seller "Numrich" and "gunpartscorp" and nothing comes up. I've heard they sell firearms on there but haven't been able to find them?

Thanks!

Congrads on the '51. They're beautiful pistols.
I've not bought any of their guns either, but I usually receive parts from them in ~one week, with tracking sent the day of shipment.

Thanks Fred. I'm looking forward to breaking it down when it arrives. Oh and shooting it too. Lol

This may be an odd question but can C$R packages be delivered to my house if I am not there? I work nights so I won't be home when UPS stops by. But my wife will be. Can she accept or sign for the package?

Yup. If it was even sent with signature required

Oft-times people skimp on that extra $5 or so.

BTW - love that pic, Rev!
Welcome to the party :party29:

You'll like that 951 - very good ergos, even with the cross-bar safety. Only problem with them, besides some pitting on the frame, is the mag situation - they're hard to find, and thus expensive.

They're certainly out there. I just picked up a NOS (Interarms-packaged) '951 mag for $99.

Helwan mags should work also right?

So my latest family member has arrived. Here's a few pics of "Ole Blue":

Blueing is mostly gone from what appears to be wear and tear. No big scratches or anything like that. Numrich also sent a clean bill of health. Slide release seems tight but is functional. I think that's more of me getting used to operating it with one hand.

Now I need ammo and some range time.

Looks good and Helwan and 1951 mags are exchangeable.
