Also, taxes in N.Y. are on the high side. The factory was closed for approximately one week following Sandy and wasn't up to full production until early January following landfall on Oct. 29.

Rohrbaugh / SHOT Show Updates

Hello all,
I recently heard from the Rohrbaugh brothers and wanted to update everyone.
Following all the problems with Superstorm Sandy, the factory is finally back to full production as of Jan. 2. However, Rohrbaugh will not be at the SHOT Show this year, and there are no new products to announce at this time.
I am sure this is disappointing for many of you (and me too), but it's really not hard to understand. Karl lost his house and his boat in the storm, and others were similarly affected. This has been VERY disruptive, and they all have been focused on rebuilding their business and their lives.
I know that we all wish the Rohrbaugh extended family the best in getting through this...and they will. But, the time and effort that could be spent on developing new models has been spent just surviving.
Of course, I will still be covering the SHOT Show -- I just won't be making my first stop at the Rohrbaugh booth. More on that later.
Thanks,
Duane
