Those VZ grips really set off that R9. Congratulations and good luck at the range.

Excellent looking pup.  Congrats and I know you'll love it just as we all have come to love ours.  It is sort of funny how the flash of the camera in the picture almost makes the slide look unmarked, and really makes the gun look unique.  Nothing against the Rohrbaugh markings, which I carry with a lot of pride, but that unmarked-looking slide in the photo looks incredible in my humble opinion.  It kind of makes it look like an Apple product!
