Any Rohrbaugh's out there ?

Looking for a small carry handgun in something "more" than a .380ACP. Heard about a small 9mm called a "R9". Anybody out there got one?

I don't have one but I've heard LOTS about them. They're nice guns, but they are the opposite of cheap. I could never justify buying one myself. Especially when there are so many options in that price range. But, if you want a truly pocketable 9mm they may very well be your best bet.

I have one. It's really nice. Shoots great. Small and smooth (no sharp edges). Very nice gun. It's expensive but I'm worth it.

I can't afford a Porsche, but I can certainly splurge on my carry gun.

There are usually a few on Gun Broker and other on line auctions. They are somewhat scarce and command a premium ($1,000 - $1,200) when you can find them.

I've never held one, but they do look like the perfect pocket 9mm.

Or, you could try a Kahr MK9. Robert Kayland is the only member here that I can think of that had a problem. I love mine. It's only slightly larger then the Rohrbaugh, but has better sights. I've never shot a Rohrbaugh, but I would be really surprised if it had a better trigger than the Kahr. Crazy accurate, too. I'd let you shoot mine if you were closer.
