CCW's estimate of the value seems right on the mark to me.

CCW.  I agree as well.  Your estimate on Agile's R9 seems to be right on.    :)

I'm going to put a little less on its value @ $900 - $950

because

1) R9 without sights just dont bring as much money and are harder to sell

2) Black frame two tone guns dont bring nearly as much as a gray or silver frame carbon fiber gun (unless its a stealth with CF grips witch are seldom found for sale)

3) The NO box, 2nd mag, paperwork thing


Although I have bought quite a few Rohrbaugh pistols and watch the auction sites like a halk for them these are only my opinions and I am wrong quite often.

Corey,
   I think from a buying selling prospective I would have to go with your estimate, because of your experience in that area.
   But in the words of P. T. Barnum  "There's a sucker born every minute"
and you may find someone who will grossly overpay.

"SME"...must be a MIL channels kind of guy..don't see that too often...

And just for the record, I would lean to more of "what Cory said" based upon the criteria mentioned. So maybe a price right in the "middle" of the spread could yield some fruit. You could always lower it if need be. Aim high I say. I would also consider throwing it up on GB as well. There are a lot of perps out there that "pay" without knowledge. The members here are obviously very knowledgable on these and will know the actual worth....as they say, every item has a price that "desire" will dictate. My two cents worth...

Thx for all the feedback so far fellas, it's been helpful. Spoke w/ Rohrbaugh today & I could replace the case, docs & mag for $55.

I'm not going this route & certainly not going to separate the CF grips, selling as a package & also not looking to trade. I will post the ad here,

possibly on M4C or ST but not on GB. Email me direct @ MBGs1911@aol.com with any questions/comments as PMs are a PITA IMHO.
