Title: New R9 owner with some questions
Post by: Romad84 on August 04, 2010, 02:30:53 AM

Well after being a long time lurker, I was able to purchase one of these little gems. I took it out today before work and ran about 20 rounds of WWB through it. I love this pistol! I paid $800 for it used at the local fun store. I know I got a pretty good deal. Is there any other grip options for the R9? Maybe pacmayer? Or Hogue? Did a quick Google search and couldn't find anything. Is factory my only option? ::)

Romad:

Welcome to the Forum, and congratulations on selecting the finest pocket pistol out there.

After-market grips are a "work in progress" on the part of a couple of Forum members. There may be some developments soon in that regard.

    Romad, welcome to the best forum anywhere. I think you'll enjoy it here. As to the extreme grips that Tom mentioned in the previous post, I have them on three of my rohrbaughs, and wouldn't be without them. Your grip on the gun is more secure and feels more "solid" for lack of a better word. Hope this helps. Again welcome.     Gene`

Romad.  Welcome to the Forum; what Tom of the Irish Guard said on the grips; lots of folks here like those.  Oh! And congratulations on getting the R9.  It's a little wonder, for sure!

Thanks for info and the warm welcomes. I'm going to look into those Hogue grips. My pup came with these blue black grips that are a little to smooth for me.

Yes Sir - I understand.  Grail is Grail - even where I came from over at Beretta Forum, we had the same "problem" with 'favorite colors' and such... ::)

Ohhh.  Trust me.  The color blue is not a problem; just what the color is on; however, I do know what you mean.    :)

I also highly recommend the Hogue checkered grips for a carry pup. I called Rohrbaugh today and ordered a spair set.
