Title: Rohrbaugh size comparison pic
Post by: alfonso2501 on April 01, 2005, 07:51:37 PM
Hi everyone! While googling around today I came across this picture that shows a size comparison to some of the other guns that are in the Rohrbaugh’s league. I hope it’s a good reference for you guys. And I hope it’s not a repost either.    

It’s right here:   http://tinypic.com/2j8hhs

If you go by the date at the top right of the picture, it looks to be a very recent image (yesterday - 3/31/05).  I've never seen this picture either.  

The R9 has a polymer frame?  ??? ???

Any idea where this picture came from?

Wow I didn’t even catch that typo! Good eye Wayne! I suppose it’s just some random guy(or gal). I just came across it googling around today, I had some time on my hands, and figured it would be a good size reference for everyone here. I’d like to know who made it as well, and if he owns any of them.

This is a thread running on THR

http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=132788

The typo (which I confess I missed myself initially!!) has been drawn to attention there now.  I was going to post here about this - as the pic does show a useful selection of sub 6" pocket pieces.

Keep in mind that the PPK and .38 snub J frames are 6.2-6.3" long.  The steel framed .38 is 22-23 ozs when loaded with 158 gr lhp's, and may be an oz heavier due to having "boot grips" on its butt.  The PPK is 21 ozs empty.

The guy Bobo - doing the chart - has made some changes - and I think is getting closer to a final version soon.

On the FAQ site I have an earlier one but will update that when possible.

rory - welcome to the forum! :)

robert - welcome!!!  :)

That pic is somewhere!  OK here we go - tho not ideal as a true ''side-by-side'' but best I have.  KT P32 (or P3AT) - the R9 and the P11.

BTW guys - the latest update pic for the size comparison chart is now on the FAQ site HERE (http://www.acbsystems.com/boards/rohrbaugh/basefile/compared4.htm) and there is a nice PDF version you can grab too.


And robert - go to this page for a load of pics of R9 against all sorts of stuff. (http://www.acbsystems.com/boards/rohrbaugh/basefile/compared.htm)

Thanks for the picture, Im trying to decide if getting an r9 to replace my p11 Diference in size and weight is minimal with the difference of 4 more rounds, im a little consern about reliability, when it come to a gun you carry for protection nothing but 100% reliable is acceptable.

Hi everyone! I apologize for bringing this thread back from the dead, but has this size reference chart ever been updated by this Bobo guy ??? ? The last one I could find was the 5/14/05 update in the FAQ section here. It’s a great piece of work, I just want to know if he ever updated it.

Alfonso - I think I do have a more up-to-date version tho IIRC changes fairly small.  I will have to check and see and then update on the FAQ site.

I had been waiting after last update because of knowing small changes were still planned - in order to ry and finalize.  Since then time has whizzed by as usual.

I will check this out soon as I can and post once I have got the latest version I had on the site.

Thx RJ - I think that is later than what I thought was latest.  I wonder if there is a PDF that is same date - useful to offer that for quality reasons.

Anyways, I'll try and get that update on FAQ pretty soon.

Post by: R9SCarry on August 22, 2005, 09:15:18 PM
Thx again RJ.  

Alfonso - I have now placed that on FAQ site - it is converted to grayscale to save some space - and is available as small quite compressed and larger 200k version.

Oh RJ - if you think there is a PDF could you point me to it?  I'll go check over on Bobo's thread too when I get to it.
