 I remember a fictional character in a cartoon strip called "Li'l Abner", ...his name was "Joe Btfsplk" ,, he walked around with a dark cloud over his head all the time.  

Not to show any disrespect to Incursion,  but I have known people like this..

I have a brother-in-law that I would not be surprised if he broke a 20# Anvil with a Tack hammer.....

Sorry Incursion...

They have emailed me and offered a full refund.  I could not sell this gun to someone on this board and feel good about it.

Incursion -- I hate to see it end this way, but I think it is a very stand-up way for the Rohrbaughs to hande it.

What we need now is a full ''autopsy'' on this gun - some way to find out what was the problem.  I am sure Eric and Karl will be digging deep to try and establish this.

I'm going to take it out one more time, but this time I won't use the grease.  I've never had any luck with it.  Jax doesn't use grease either.  I plan to video tape my session this time.

No need to beat a dead horse I guess.  What are you going to get instead? Seecamp 380, Kel-tec 3AT, Kahr PM9, S&W 342PD, Colt Pony, or what?

I'm not sure yet... probably a Kahr PM9, maybe a NAA.  I'm really bummed about my Rohrbaugh not working. :(

NAA's are blowback, and heavy but they do accept regular sights.  Maybe try again in a year or so with the Rohrbaugh.  I'm sorry you invested so much time and energy into your Rohrbaugh and ended up with nothing. :'(

HLG - I am sure in the fullness of time there will be feedback on this.  After all, I'd reckon Eric will want us, owners and prospective owners alike - to know, so that any changes can be made either in the gun, the handling, ammo choice etc.

I know a lot of people who like Kahrs but even the smallest aren't pocket guns.

NAA is probably the most durable and reliable of the pocket guns, and in my opinion is one of only a handful of companies that truly take pocket guns seriously.  Plan on getting an NAA custom shop sight upgrade and a Teddy Jacobson trigger job to really bring out the best in these guns.
