You have my sympathies, Skyhook.

I know it's a hassle to have to send a gun back, but I'm confident that our friends at Rohrbaugh will do what it takes to make it right.  :) Hang in there, and try look at this as an opportunity to get reacquainted with guns that you may have abandoned when you moved to the R9s! I'll have a good thought for you that it's resolved quickly.

No one was hurt, no property was destroyed, but as a NRA certified pistol instructor of thirty years, I have never owned or operated a firearm that did what this one did.

I will wait for Rohrbaugh's evaluation before I say more.

This will take some time.

Skyhook:

Why all the mystery?  We're supposed to be friends sitting around a campfire here.  What in Hades happened?

Yeah, Skyhook,  now some of us are getting nervous and worried.

Could you let out the secret?

We are just one big happy family.

Skyhook, your own words for self comfort: "these things happen.. what's important is how they are handled" - But what the heck happen?

Cheers!

Skyhook,
You sure have my undivided attention.
Should I put my pup in his crate until you can tell us "The Rest of the Story"?
My Michigan CPL covers handguns but not hand grenades!!  ???
Seriously, I hope you weren't injured when TSHTF.

I sure hope there was no injury, too.

I'm thinking about giving my R9S a rest, until we know more.
Skyhook sure has my undivided attention, just like friend Steve.

I'm an old counter-intelligence type.  I'll wait for the specifics.  In the meantime, my early-isssue R9 was flawless last week.    

What happened, Skyhook?
