Whoever wrote that is BRAIN DEAD, anyone who writes about guns and has an IQ over 26 would know that is total BS, and a STUPID ststement.  I guess the guys with over 5000 rounds through there guns are real lucky.  ;D

I guess some of mine did not get the memo.  ;D  I have one that has a little over 3,100 rounds through it from ME and I bought it used.  I plan to put 10,000 rounds through it and let the brothers check it out to see how things are going but I will bet things will be just fine.

Well at $1200 average price and only 150 shots, thats $8 per shot, you have used up $1192 worth of your R9. Yours is ready for the junk pile in one shot, so being a nice guy, I'll give you $10 for it (that's $2 more than it's worth) and cover any transfer fees and shipping.  ;D ;D

That's what I call an oversized load of "Bravo Sierra."

John,

Thank you, the gun is on its way.

I don't need it anymore as I have now retired, purchased a small island in the Caribbean, and will from now on have a couple of bodyguards (and a lingerie model) in attendance.  

Please remember me fondly every time the Visa bill arrives...

PS, the bill will be so big that it will arive in a box from now on.

No problem with the size of the bill, I have gone paperless.  ;D
  Maybe I can stop by the island and we can do some shooting, do you have a dock for my 380' boat? or should I just use the copter to come ashore?

John

Post by: Alphonso on April 21, 2010, 01:26:29 AM
You are welcome on the island anytime.  Please bring your own lingerie models, as mine are quite busy.

Of course we have facilities for your boat.  The  'copter will also be fine if you phone ahead.  My shore aerial defense placements are sort of touchy of late and we wouldn't want to have any misunderstandings.  

Seriously, I think I'm gonna risk it and shoot that 150th round out of R9 and just hope it doesn't disintegrate in my hands...

Alphonso.  You'll be OK on the 150th round and many, many more.  Excellent story, BTW.     :)

Guys, he might be correct.  I bought an R9, took it to the range, loaded it up, and it stopped working after only 7 shots.  Piece of junk if you ask me.

I've got a friend who bought a new revolver and it only worked for 6 shots.

Put it back in the safe now that I know it will last more than 150rds.
 
Brenen: Congrats on your new Farmie from P7, you've got some nice early R9's. ;)
