R-45 Update ???
« on: January 23, 2010, 02:50:40 PM »
Hi All I have been reading the forum for a long time but never posted while patiently waiting for the R-45 to become available. I was really hoping for a surprise showing at the Shot Show. That not happening I am looking at a used R-9 Stealth on Gun Broker but would rather get the 45 if the wait is less than say 6 months. Does anyone have any news?

NOLA.  Welcome to the Forum.  The R-45 is over a year away
and here's a link where our moderator DDGater explains the situation.  Just scroll down the thread until you get to it.

Thanks for the welcome. I did not see that post. I guess I will buy the R-9 and then sell it for the R-45 when available...
I thank you for the help... I am sure my Wife will not feel the same.....

NOLA:

Welcome to the Forum.

As for what to do with the R9, offer it to your wife when the R45 comes out -- or get her the K380, and then keep both the R9 and R45 for yourself. (Just a thought.  ;) )

Thanks for the welcome!

Good idea about giving the R-9 to to the Wife. The only problem is she is a "One Gun Gal" she carries a stainless SP-101 .357 bobtail revolver and thinks I am silly with all of my guns. She Claims one good one is all you need....But if its hers and just sitting in the safe ....Yea that could work...

I hope she wears ear plugs while carrying the .357.

LOL, She carries it in a concealed carry purse. "A poor Womans silencer" if she uses it that way. Now I suppose they will want a silencer tax stamp for purses as well...
