Why don't you take her to Court over those Illegal seizures !

edit to add  ;D

That might not be prudent, RJ.  Around these parts she IS the court.  Besides, she's got armed bailiffs to do her bidding.

Howdy, folks!

My first post here, though you may know me from TFL/THR/WT/GT, etc. I just bought my R-9S this morning from an outfit over in Arkansas for $946, delivered to me and including their "3% for credit card" fee. Cash list was $889.

I'm excited about getting the pistol (a tenth anniversary present from my wife) and sincerely grateful to you all, since nosing around this forum was a big part of what got me to take the plunge. Can't wait until it arrives on Monday . . .

cheers, erich

Erich,

Wow, what a gift!!

Does your wife have any sister’s? (Just kidding)

I’m sure you’ll like your new Rorhbaugh.

Regards,

Bill

Thanks, gentlemen, for the welcomes and the kind words!  :)

I am really eager to go try the R9S out - so eager that I think I'll actually drag myself to the hated indoor range on Monday evening. I hope to have nice things to post the next day!

Bill, Gina has one sister that is as yet unmarried. 33, cute and sweet, too. However, she doesn't shoot (although she's not at all against it) and she's not all that into cooking (although she can certainly do just fine when she puts her mind to it). She has cats, though.  :P

You are all very kind to comment on the beneficence of the gift - I'll pass along your gracious words to Gina (who's enjoying the anniversary band that I - very romantically - had custom-made for her :)  ).

Erich - the board software squishes your avatar pic into square format - yours reminds me of Duane's early pic which I tweaked.  It has lateral compression.

I have tweaked yours so it is less distorted!!!  Grab this one and replace your old one - then it'll look better - if you want to that is!  I am a meddling ol' phart as most know!! ;D

Erich,

All sounded so good until the “cat” thing. That’s a deal breaker.

Congratulation on your 10th.

I could handle the cats...  Where does she live??  Of course, she'd have to like flying/airplanes.... ;D

R9SCarry, many thanks for the photo tweak! Unfortunately for you all, my photo now resembles my actual appearance!  ;)

Flyandscuba, she's here in Albuquerque, NM. Not much scuba diving here, alas (although the Blue Hole over by Santa Rosa is supposed to be interesting), but lots of airplanes. Neat ones, too.

Erich, I love Albuquerque and travel there often. I see and buy indian jewerly from Wrights Indian Collection on south San Meteo. I have been doing business with them since 1965. We may come up there during the Christmas season this year.
