R380..
« on: July 29, 2004, 06:44:02 PM »
Looking at one of the magazines yesterday-believe it was Guns Annual and I looked up to see if they had info on the Rohrbaugh..They had it listed as the R380,R9..

May have been R9s also-cannot remember..

Just wondering if they have/had plans for this Cal.?

Brendan:

Welcome to the Forum.

Any reference to a Rohrbaugh .380 has to be a typographical error (not likely) or worse.  Karl Rohrbaugh has said that he was originally considering the production of a .380 but decided on a 9mm when the Seecamp .380 was announced.  The result is the tour de force we now have in the R9/R9s series.

Actually, there is an R-380 model in .380 ACP.  It is designed for the European market where civilians can't have handguns chambered in "military" calibers like 9mm.

I don't believe it will be offered in the U.S.

Thanks-Figured it may have been something like this..

Are they producing the .380 now or is this a plan for the future?..

Hopefully they are busy building my 9mm right now!! ;)
