Those VZ grips really set off that R9. Congratulations and good luck at the range.

Excellent looking pup.  Congrats and I know you'll love it just as we all have come to love ours.  It is sort of funny how the flash of the camera in the picture almost makes the slide look unmarked, and really makes the gun look unique.  Nothing against the Rohrbaugh markings, which I carry with a lot of pride, but that unmarked-looking slide in the photo looks incredible in my humble opinion.  It kind of makes it look like an Apple product!

Another fifty rounds fired!  Dang I love this little shooter!
The VZ grips made a heck of a difference with the grip.
Single shot fire was very secure, double taps had the R9
still shifting a bit.

You might want to speak with Yankee2500 and see if you can get your hands on one of his magazine extensions.  It should help you keep control.   http://www.rohrbaughforum.com/index.php?topic=1230.0
