I have Tritium sights on my NAA G-380, and I appreciate them. However, I have always wondered if I were not attempting to "guild a Lilly" by having them installed.
The Rohrbaugh 9mm series is, in my opinion, the ultimate pocket pistol yet made -- given the current state of the art in such things. It is in the nature of human beings to stretch the limits. However, I wonder if "glow-in-the-dark" sights are actually appropriate in a pistol which was designed to be a last-resort, up-close-and personal defensive weapon.
As with aircraft, sailboats, and ships of war, every handgun is a compromise of one kind or the other, depending on the mission and purpose. The Rohrbaughs are the lightest, smallest, most efficient, and most powerful 9mm pocket pistols ever seriously offered to the public. I simply wonder if we should not accept the Rohrbaughs for what they are -- the lightest, smallest, most efficient, and most powerful 9mm pocket pistol pistols ever seriously offered to the public.
I have a Colt 1911-type which started out its life as a standard, "Plain Jane," Government Model 1991A1. It is now one of the "loveliest lillies of the field," courtesy of Clark Custom Guns. You can do that with a 1911-type, with which the sky is the limit. With a Rohrbaugh, you are already very near to the edge of the envelope when you take the pistol out of the box.
All of the above comments are just some random thoughts as I wind down after a difficult day. No offense is intended to anyone. However, I think that I shall leave my R9s as it is, except for some personal engraving on the slide and some sterling-silver grips -- which I am told by my individualistic but gifted silversmith friend may be ready in the next week or two. (If he pulls it off, I shall attempt to post a photograph.)
