I'm going to start a 2010 SHOT Show thread and post some vids from Gun Websites on youtube.

First one - Troy industries

Those S&W pocket 380's with built in laser sights are nice. On the down side is they're almost twice the price of a P3AT.

I keep looking at the Ruger LCR, but think I may have to wait for the Smith.

I shot the LCR, its got quite a punch due to the weight.  Its a good revolver carry.

Guns America is running a great group of Shot Show videos.

Buy a laser for the keltec or LCP and you real close to that,plus its not an ugly add on.Its integral to the gun.I will be getting the 380 with out a doubt when it comes out.

I have a laser on my P3AT. In reality it's a point shooting affair with the P3AT (standard sights are worthless) but the laser helps.

I wanna get a laser for my lcp just because the site are useless.

Im curious to know why everyone is making a .380 pocket pistol and Rohrbaugh took the plunge and made a 9mm.  Smith&Wesson, Keltec, Ruger, Sig, all multi million dollar companies that are giants compared to Rohrbaugh and they dont have one.  My hat off to Rohrbaugh for taking that risky step.  Now if they were less expensive I would have more than one.  Ide have the stealth one as well. Hope your listening Eric

they are trying to catch up - Ruger has a pocket 9mm in the works and I think S&W does as well = and once that happens usually everyone else will move on it as well

great job Eric!

Here's a collection of random pictures I took at the show this week.

I saw a picture of the Ruger.  I think its bigger than the Rohrbaugh

Lewis Machine & Tool (LMT) - Check out 4:40 into it.  Sights angled off to the side.

Ahter shooting my LCP for 400 rounds or so I kinda got use to the micro sights and it shoots fairly tight groups at 7+14 yrds

Can someone please tell me who makes the grip at 14:05!!!!!!  I was loving it even before he said it....

SIG SAUER by Nutnfancy

His comment makes it seem like it's a one off that they are planning to have made but haven't finalized. That is sweet though.

I'm not a big keltec person but heres another good review

This is something interesting....  I personally haven't seen before!!

I know I a week late but I interested in one of their uppers

      Yes. . . I’m listening.  I’m sorry it has taken me this long to answer any questions, however, with the crew and I just getting back from the SHOT Show and playing catch up at the factory, along with doing the requisite follow-ups on the connections made during SHOT Show, it is most difficult for me to get in here, read and answer any questions with a lengthy response which would fully explain the question for you. That said, here we go with this one:

      We took the mini 9mm pistol plunge 8 years ago! Our first R9s were coming out just post 9/11 at SHOT Show 2002. We were the first to bring the mini pocket 9mm to the market in a fully custom hand-man product. No MIM or forging used. . . all CNC cut solid billets for every part and hand fit. . . . hence the cost factor. Quite a few of "The Biggies" in the industry actually carry the R9 on their person, rather than their own firearm because of the size and weight factor along with it’s quality. To answer why we brought out our .380 last year. . . we had many of our clients and other folks new to our product who liked the high end idea of our 9mm pistol but may find it tough to handle.  The R9 Series Pistols are smaller and lighter for them as an everyday carry. Mr. Bill Wilson, of Wilson Combat fame, whom I met at SHOT Show years ago, stopped by our booth. I began to do my presentation for him, but he said I didn’t need to do that as he already had one on order! I had to ask him why he would carry our little gun and not one of his own beautifully made .45s!? He said to me that we had filled a niche that was needed for some time and that the machining and design of the little gun was carried out top notch. Why would he carry one of his .45s, at around 32 to 39 approx. ozs. when, for an everyday carry, he can put the R9 (at around 14 ozs) on his hip. We thought that wonderful to hear and are humbled by his statement and that of others in the industry who also feel the same way. As for our pricing to drop, it was Bill Wilson himself who mentioned to us that the base model should have been priced around the $1,800.00 mark years ago. Our current pricing we have kept in place for over two years now. With overhead and raw materials climbing all that time, an increase is coming shortly. We understand that that will stop some folks from a purchase, however, those who can. . . will . . . and do make the purchase. After showing a prototype of a “full-sized” R9 Series 9mm pistol to a select few at the show, we have decided to put that on the back burner for now and work diligently on the R45. We hope to have it completed and tested by sometime next year.

      I hope this response brings some light to what is happening behind the scenes at Rohrbaugh.

          Thank you all for reading and listening here.

               Respectfully,

                    Eric R.
