You can use the standard white box Winchester 9mm with it to practice? What grain on the Winchesters? No jam issues with them?

The Speer Gold dots are not that easy to find....115 or 124?

Thanks...I will pick up a box of those. I have a Desantis Nemesis pocket holster that fits both the Beretta Tomcat and/or the Rohrbaugh...so I have that already for pocket carry.

Looking for a slim belt hoster that works perfectly with the Rohrbaugh

Kevin at K&D Holsters (who is an advertiser and supporter of this forum) does various holsters for the R-9.  You would be well pleased with his products.

Picked the pup up yesterday...love the feel and quality of this firearm....

I have a couple of questions...I have read 2 things about lubrication...one says use Superlube, the other says gun oil...so which is it? I am talking about what to use on the slide rails, barrel, etc...obviously gun oil for the exterior. Let me know your recommendations.

Also, how old is this gun...it was NIB with a 1500 serial number? Looks like it was packed with the older recoil spring? Is this OK? Should I order a couple of the new springs....

Thanks for your help...I am sure I will take some pics, and looking forward to a trip to the range with her!
