Certainly hoping these guys get back up and running.
Great to see them back then and read Eric's posts now.

Thanks chameleon. They were fun days for sure! Thanks for your thoughts about us. You never know what can happen after the 5 year "None Compete" clause is over with. Two years down ~ Three to go.

But, we may just continue to enjoy our retirement! I'm heavily back into the arts at this point.

Getting ready to play B.B. Kings in New York City come April 2016.

Moving ahead good Sir. . . . . Movin' ahead................

Nice photographs you posted there Duane. Hope you are enjoying the S.H.O.T. Show. Karl and I miss that part. We should probably try to go next year as guests!

"Those were the days my friend,

At least members of this Forum are privileged to own the finest 9mm pocket pistol ever designed and manufactured.

I always say that the cream flows to the top.
You will accomplish greatness in any thing you choose, however, each day I get older retirement looks great too!

Yes I am happy and proud to own an R9, and it isn't going anywhere.
I thank you gentlemen for that piece of fine art.

Duane, those pictures are amazing, and you have been a great huge part of the success and the word getting out there many years ago, if not for this forum I may not of heard of Rohrbaugh so early in production.
