Boberg XR9 9mm thoughts?

[tnhawk]

Before I pay that much for a pocket pistol, I'd have to see it prove itself.

At the moment there is 714 on the pre order list.

Arney says they are making 60-80 gun a month now. So about a year to wait.

These are selling on Gunbroker form 1500-2000$ and all that have been listed have sold.

I am on the list and looks about 9 months more for me. So Ill let you know then.

I've been on the list since October 2010.

I'm likely in the next batch (I may purchase 2). There's a good chance I may have them around Jan/Feb

Can't wait! I want to buy 1 as a collectors piece, the other to be used and hopefully carried.

[xRUSTYx]

just checked .... I'm around #75 to go, so yeah, I should be in batch #3 !!! woot woot!

think I'm gonna save my pennies for 2 ...

And yeah ... Gunbroker seems to be the place to get one if you don't want to wait. BUT you will be payin a premium!

$1300+ with 3 days to go! eeek

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one intrigued by this pistol. I'm on the list as well, but I'm probably a year or so out.

Rusty, you have to give us an update when you get it. I hope and think this one is going to live up to the hype. My last gun I waited a long time for did. (PMR-30)

Rusty.....

When you get yours in and if you want a holster for it let me know.

Rusty, have you been contacted yet for payment? I believe another wave went out today so I was just curious. You have to send pics and a range report when you get it.

Sorry for never updating the thread on my status!

Was on waiting list since October 2010 ... Payment made on 11/14/2011 ... Roughly 13 month wait.

Hoping to get them by mid January and will definitely post a review and some comparisons!

[Guest FiddleDog]

I'm I crazy for being reminded of the mechanism in the Kriss Super-V?

[Guest rebeldrummer]

kind of a neat looking pistol....cant wait for a hands on review from someone on here (Rusty).

Different, But Different: Boberg Arm's XR9-S - Topic

There is a review one of the sigforum members did on the gun, he went and toured the facilities and got to see how it was made. It is a good read and lots of good pictures.

[JeffsSig]

Dont ya just hate to wait.

But I am sure it will be worth the wait.

[Guest DELETED]

I'm looking at one and it kind of looks and operates like a bull pup.

[Fourtyfive]

Here we go , reports , reports !!!!! YAHOO !!!!

[xRUSTYx]

Well... I got them in my hands. The guys at D&T are awesome! They ended up having to wait on hold for an hour and a half since boberg arms isn't a recognized handgun in TN! Great group of guys Dave has over there.
