Don't know, just got off the phone with them and they told me it sold earlier this morn. They knew all about it being a Robar , they told me they were trying to be realistic in thier pricing as it was used. He tried to talk me into a Wilson/Rohrbaugh "Covert"

Since it was purchased outside of Gunbroker I would guess $1400 shipped maybe less. The guy answering the phone may have known it was a Robar but whoever listed it was clueless. That gun if properly listed would bring $1700 easy. Best production Rohrbaugh made thus far, LOVE mine. Hope a forum member got her.

 The Gentleman I talked to was the assitant Manager, They knew what they were doing, They specialize in High End .45's . He had talked to Karl (Rohrbaugh) the day a few days earlier concerning the R-45 as well. They were just trying to be fair.  They bought it at a good price and were passing it along.  I am starting to think about the Covert.... Blueprinted by Wilson, Given a Trigger job(Reconturing and less pull) by Wilson as well, Plus the Armor Tuff Coating Everywhere, Looks like it could be a
High Performance Rohrbaugh.

Chief.  Good luck in getting the Rohrbaugh Covert.  Not that I have owned one, however, seems like a great pistol.

 Yes it does sound good, the average Pup is pretty accurate for the ranges intended, I am wondering how much more accurate it would be given the lighter trigger pull and the Wilson Tuning. (oh also, Karl is still tweaking on the R-45) If I get the Covert there will be a Stealth for sale on here.
