If not mistaking I think the prem. one came with gf grips and had extra jeweling/polishing done. There were only 16 made and the serial numbers were ie 12 of 16.  They also came in a display box and were priced around two grand.  There are a few threads here about them with pics if you do a little searching for them.

Looking good, Corey!   8)

The  R9s "RR" is already taken by the Robar Rohrbaugh NP3 coated model, so that one is out.

John is this one yours?  A RR model with serial # R360 seems like its missing a number.  Maybe R360x with a little photo shop? ? ? ?

I wish it was mine, the pic is the way I found it, the OP may have photo shopped the #.

Yes, the owner must have deleted the last number in the pic. As I mentioned earlier, I have the fourth Robar made, and its serial number is R360x.  ;D

I still have mine - my daily carry.  It's showing a little wear here and there but it's been 100% reliable and very comforting.  And it sure is accurate for such a small gun.  I'd sell it for $7,500 right now and even throw-in a holster.  I'd be hurt to see it go but I'd deal with the pain... by buying another R9!  Bids?

Well it's been over 5 years and the good old R9 SF is still in my pocket and still 100% reliable.  I carry it always and shoot it (a few magazines) a couple times a year.  Have yet to find anything to replace it.   ;)
