« on: June 16, 2011, 04:07:33 PM »
Does anyone know what number of OEM Black Carbon Fiber Grips are out there on the Farmingdale and Deer Park PUPs?

I just pulled the black CF grips from my R9s, Serial # R3xx out of  the safe.  There are no model or serial numbers anywhere on them.  
Sorry.

I found out some unofficial info on the grips.

They were installed on the R9s from 2005 to 2006 some time mid year. (this is an approx time frame)

There are approximatly 1500 sets of these beauties out there.

Marshbrook.  You may want to put your request to buy an early R9 with the black carbon fiber grips in the classifieds.  May help.  Someone wanting to sell one is out there, I'm sure.  May also want to specify how early you want; good luck in your search

I purchased an R9, not a sighted model and the ser. # was in the 800s and it had black CFs. I sold the gun but kept the grips. ;D

I like the look of the Black CF grips on a black framed gun.

I love the look of the Blue CF grips on a silver framed gun! ;D

I bought my first one in 06 and it did not have the CFs.
