John,
I'm a brand new member here as of this morning and this is a heck of a way for me to make my first post but I believe your Takedown Tool maybe just what I need.
I purchased my first R9 last Friday and am going to shoot it this afternoon for the first time. Over the past few days however I've struggled big time not taking it apart but getting it back together. The barrel pin was virtually impossible to get back on. Fortunately I have a forum friend who lives close by that has a similar tool and after some struggle we got the gun back together.
I will post a range report with some other thoughts when I get back.
I will send you an email now with my name and address and hopefully I can purchase one of those great looking tools.
Thanks,
Doug
