Cleaning and Maintenance of the R-9 / Re: Alternative to Eezox
« Last post by Wanderer on February 08, 2024, 09:55:58 PM »
I'll probably stay clear of the Eezox,  no point in tempting fate.   When I was a kid my dad had some left over DDT long after it was banned and decided to spray the yard with it.   No telling how much of that is already in my system from the garden. 

I'll check out the Ballistol.

Well what usually happens is I get one of something, and then my wife wants one so we get two.   And then I can dual wield  ;D

I was curious about that too,  I did some looking and from a post I saw the gun smith that owned it was a friend of Karl's.    I was also curious about the 'fine tuned" springs

Wondering about how a U.S.A. marked slide is on serial number R1453 is being sold as Brand New?  Gun was listed tonight on GB.  My mind thinks it has to be a replacement slide?  Thoughts?

With the help of Cargaritaville who let me purchase one of his collection I am soon to be the owner of my first Rohrbaugh.  I have waited a long time to finally get one.

It should be in next week,  and then I'll have to schedule a range trip.

Thanks Norm!

Wanderer, contact member 'Brian' here to see if he can make you what you want.  He's got a good number of posts that show his work for the Rohrbaugh and I think you will be impressed with the quality.

Cleaning and Maintenance of the R-9 / Re: Alternative to Eezox

I've used Ballistol with good results for years.  It was originally developed to treat wounds as well as firearm lubrication/protection, no issues with it being a known carcinogenic I am aware of.

If your worried, stock up on it from Amazon.

Cleaning and Maintenance of the R-9 / Alternative to Eezox
« Last post by Wanderer on February 08, 2024, 10:53:17 AM »
I saw a few posts about people having used Eezox in the past,  and wonder if anyone had found a good alternative.

Eezox contains Trichloroethylene which is extremely toxic and there is currently an effort to ban TCE in the US.

It is already banned in a few states so a total ban doesn't seem out of the question and may get enacted.
