Upcoming Magazine Reviews
« on: June 24, 2004, 11:35:13 AM »
I have a Gun Test subscription and looked at upcoming reviews. This was on the list:

Tiny 9mms
Kahr PM9 V. the Rohrbaugh R-9

It didn't say which month. I know it isn't the July issue.

Gun Tests is way behind, that topic was already covered in the early days of the Rohrbaugh Forum:

http://www.rohrbaughforum.com/YaBB.cgi?board=R9S;action=display;num=1085699807

The answer is still the same -- the PM9 is a decent gun that is larger and heavier with slightly more firepower.  They fit a difference niche -- one is a true pocket gun and one is a gun you can cram into a pocket.

I am going to have a full review of the R-9S in an upcoming issue of Concealed Carry Magazine.

Thanks R9SCarry -- I will take you up on that offer.  I am doing the review.  The Concealed Carry Mag articles tend to be more "carry" oriented and less techie / numbers / velocities oriented -- but I will throw some of that in too and I appreciate the offer.

In the upcoming issue I have a review of the CZ RAMI .40.

Mike .... here ya go .......

Concealed Carry Magazine

Duane ... yeah I realize the write-ups are not putting great emphasis on figures and stuff .. but anyways .. could well be worth a mention of the Gold Dot figures and performance.  If you want any higher res pics that you have seen ... shout!  I can email them over if needed.

BTW - just posted a new thread .. re a new page I have done .. with All R9 ammo data so far .... shows all makes and figures covered by my test thus far.

MurrayNevada,

Just so you know -- its not cheap.  This is basically a grass-roots start-up effort to create a different kind of magazine that is not a shill for big advertisers or run by a mega-media conglomerate.  They just published issue #3, and each one keeps getting better.  Nice people with great ideas.

They will send you a "trial issue" free.
