Post by: DDGator on April 01, 2013, 11:04:56 AM

Some great pieces of Rohrbaugh history...

A set of the two guns made famous in the American Handgunner first review -- an R9 and R9s.

Karl's personal R9, with serial number R9!

Awesome.

I bought my first R9 after reading that review. I still have the article  and the gun.

I'm surprised there hasn't been more action on these great guns. My only thought is that everyone has been buying "assault weapons" and ammo while they still can.  Interesting times......

You are probably right -- and I agree that I thought they would move very quickly.  We have lots of collectors here and these are great collector guns without a huge markup for the collector status.

It's actually very sad because I am sure what we are seeing here is on a much larger scale being felt by the Rohrbaugh's with respect selling guns that arn't on the list of guns to be banned. If people know they will still be able to buy an R9 or 380 in 6 months they are going to buy other guns/mags/ammo in the meantime.

I wish them the best with sales during these times. For whatever reason I am really only interested in guns that are very unlikely to be banned so I guess it is a good time to pick those up.

I wonder if the issue may be that no one is buying guns that they cannot get ammo for?
Maybe if there was a way to have a supply of gold dots available for purchase as a package with a new Rohrbaugh?
