Robar with Carbon Fibers
« on: July 31, 2009, 11:57:10 PM »
This is my newest addition. Dealer owed me a favor and gave me a deal, the black carbon fibers were free from a previous gun flip. This gun looks different depending on the lighting. First four pics are without flash, next four with.

This string is comical for me. I have been relying on existing strings for my posts (received on Outlook) and have overlooked new posts.

Therefore, I was unaware of this string and just read the Irish Guard's post as to what I would think when I saw this post; never realizing that by the time I caught up with it, I would be enroute to buying it from segquick.

What I don't get is that segquick boasted about it and then quickly went about selling it(!?) Hey, I'll take it, but I'm just saying.

I think he was still proud of it; he just saw a way to make some quick dollars.  And you're right; your gain.

Thank you, and apologies to Jeff. His handle is Sigquick, not Segquick.

I was impressed by the way the carbon fibers brought it to life and wanted to share the pics, but over the weekend I realized it was too nice to carry or shoot, and I already have a safe of guns that rarely get shot. I've been flipping Rohrbaughs for the last couple months and I am very content with my first Stealth and will keep it as I continue sell. This is win deal for both ACP and myself, and I'm sure he won't mind putting that first round through her. It's definitley one of a kind!

ACP:

It would appear that congratulations are in order. I hope you come to value that early classic as much as I value "132".   8)

Thank you Sigquick and Richard. Concur with comments and I am grateful for your goodwill as to my Robar R9.

This is a crazy story with a happy ending. I obsessed over the one tone, did not want to go to Robar with my two tone, ordered a Robar R9 the day before I discovered Sigquick's classified post at 3:30AM in the morning and Sigquick is (today) in possession of the $1885.00 postal money orders I sent Express Mail yesterday.

Timing is everything and this appears to have been my turn. Now what do I do? I mean, I will have nothing to complain about when I get the perfect R9! Maybe tracker was right.
