R9 Prototype

Here is one most have probably not seen. The grips appear quite thick but this may be due to the slidelock assembly.

Does look nice!  I sorta like the grips!  Now that's just sorta!   ;)

Some nice ivory grips on my Robar R9s would look pretty cool, actually.   ;)

Yep!  Sure would, however, those in the above picture, as John mentions, appear thicker, and have that ridge down the grip, is why I say "sorta" on these particular grips.

Agreed. That is the only thing about having a relatively rare, niche gun. Hard to find any accessories to "personalize" it.   ;)
