Has anyone seen an R9 with red lettering like the one on GunsAmerica?

Go to:

http://www.gunsamerica.com/976911775/Guns/Pistols/R-Misc-Pistols/Rohrbaugh_R9_9mm.htm

The listing is number 976911775
Look closely at the pictures; all the lettering is filled in red.
Was that ever done at the factory or (probably) has some nut done it?

Actually, the gun is only $99.
The Custom Crayola Lettering is $700. What a DEAL!
Why would somebody do a Stupid thing like that?  :-/
Some people just can't leave well enough alone, I guess.

I think you should practice on all of those pups you have, and let us know how it turns out. One in each color ;)

I may do that!!

It all comes out in the "wash" as they say!!! ;D

I bought it. The red came out with a little fingernail polish remover. Looks like new. Even has the CF grips. ;D ;D ;D

Hope it was not a rare, one-of-a-kind, red letter version! :-/
