R9 shortage?
« on: July 10, 2017, 08:11:40 PM »
Anyone notice that R9's for sale on G-broker seem to be at a all time low? There is exactly ONE for sale. Looks like those with them are keeping them. 7-8 months ago I paid $800 exactly for a two mag two tone LNIB R9. Got the feeling those days are a thing of the past.  :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[

I may be thinning out my safe soon, and, as you may imagine, I have some interesting R9s to sell. Stay tuned as I am looking into posting any sales here that I put on Gunbroker.

Pretty much finished the writing of the ad for it. In the next few days I'll do the photography for the ad and then get her posted by early next week.

Good night folks.

Thanks Brenden . . . . . Done with some chores, now I'm sitting at the computer downsizing the exceptionally large photographs I get when I use the silly iPhone 6s Plus. I need to reduce them down to human sized photographs. Once I have that done, I'll insert that information into Gunbroker and place the ad. Once that is done, I guess I'll post a new thread with a link to the sale here on the forum so people can watch and, hopefully, bid on the ole' gal.

We'll see what happens I guess.................

I think they are priced right and all have been selling around a 1000. Still a great deal. One covert seems to be over priced but the rest seems right in line.

Actually I thinK the Covert is underpriced and may just pull the ad. Where could get ANY other other type of gun of that type for 3K?




p.s. Just pulled it. I need the gun more than 3K. There were 115 watchers, and 43 that ad it saved.. Someone would have paid 3K or more . That Special Forces sold for$4500 and that was just stamps. The Covert is a DIFFERENT GUN Things may change but for now, THAT'S IT.......................... ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
