R9 Front & Back Strap Checkering, Barrel Porting, Site Modification

(1/5) > >>

billib:
I found some interesting photos on Googles
Public Domain Photo section of a Rohrbaugh
with Front and Back Strap Checkering as well
Barrel Porting and Red Site Dots.

Can anyone shed some light on these mod's
and maybe the Pistol?

Z:
The work was done by Bob Cogan @ Accurate Plating & Weaponry.

Hard Chrome Plating Matte rounds and brushed flats
Porting
Sights drilled and colored
Front strap checkering
Back strap checkering
Front of trigger guard checkering
I believe all the checkering is 40LPI

Z:
The grips were an older style aluminum with checkering.
They are no longer available.
I am not sure if Rohrbaugh offered them or Bryce from IDM.

tracker:

Rohrbaugh and Bryce both offered aluminum grips. I think these particular grips were made for Rohrbaugh by AlumaGrips but they have been re-anodized and checkered whereas the original AlumaGrips were smooth.

billib:
Thanks guys. its truly stunning work
though I don't get the porting in what
amounts to being in the middle of the
barrel.
I would have preferred a slightly longer
barrel that protrudes a little past the
Slide with the porting in the very end
of the barrel.

The rest of the mods make sense.

Its a shame Night Sights can't be
reliably installed. I like Night Sights.
