I thought someone called a truce until Thanksgiving?   ;)

I'M STILL GOOD UNTIL THANKSGIVING :)

I do have the warranty card for what it's worth.

This could be your ace in the hole...

How much of an Ace?

Is enough of an ace that I should press the warrantee obligation card?

Or is it a little bit softer than that since I am not the original owner and should therefore just bide my time and wait?

Are you saying that the original warranty card was never filled out and sent in to Rohrbaugh?
Having a gun in your hand is much more effective than having the entire police department on the phone!

IMO
You should send a humors letter every week or two, skip some during holidays (tell them so)
Begging for help...
Maybe -  Return receipt     or   --- Boss.   ---   on occasion.
Patiently wait or spent   $$$

Most of all - buy a another  w / card     and testing first    LOL    But seriously  You will love it.

Thanks for the ideas Bamboobob. I may consider going one of those routes.

Josh -- I supect your chances of getting warranty service with the original warranty card are pretty good.  In those circumstances, they may never ask if you are the original owner.  If they do ask -- then I guess you have a moral dilemma.

The waiting was just for your own mental health since there may be a system avaiable soon regardless of what you do.  However, I don't see any reason you have to wait.  You have waited a long time already.

for me it will be a spare firing pin and hammer spring. I do want the firing pin to be original Rohrbaugh production machined pin though, who knows what kind of MIM parts Remington might use in the Rem version.

If we are still talking about the .380, I don't think you have much worry about a cracked frame.  The 9mm pushes the limits of this design, the .380 ACP does not.

I feel the same dilemma. The last thing I want is to end up with a cracked frame and have to send it in and get a Remorhrbaugh R9. 

I should have hit the quote button The first time Duane. Sorry.
