I know the owner of Barami Hip Grips pretty well. Next time I see him, I'll ask about making some that will fit the R9.
They're molded plastic and would require a set of injection molds, so I'll bet he will laugh me out of his house. He probably needs to sell 5,000 to 10,000 sets to see a profit.
Hmmm. Do you think that's why the R9 costs nearly $1,000? The Brothers R have labored for years, invested tons of $ in facilities & tooling, and produced about 1,000 guns in two years on the market. Thanks in part to this forum, every owner feels like part of the Rohrbaugh family. And expects special treatment like family.
Rohrbaugh is probably only halfway to making a profit. Unless you think $2.50 / hour is good pay!!
Sorry for the diversion from the thread, but I got to thinking what Jack will say about making grips for such a small volume, and the realities of business overcame my affection for my R9.
