I just got home with my new Boberg XR9S. Can't wait to put some lead downrange with it. I'll post the results once I do. It sure feels good in my hand and has a very Kahr-like feel to the trigger pull, a bit heavier, but real smooth. I got a low serial number, just under 00200. That will be nice if I ever sell it to a collector. I noticed they just raised the price to $995. Wow. The Contents of the box, and a comparison with my Kahr CW40

I'm actually ready, I think, after 20 years of saying No No No, to own a 9mm.
Let me know how this gun works out.
(BTW: Currently I'm wading into the shallow end of the 9mm pool.
Ran across a Storm Lake stainless steel G27 40-9mm conversion barrel for $120)

My latest infection - Walther PPQ

Ol Coot, Probably next week sometime before I can get to the range, might pop off a few in the back yard Tuesday while everyones at work.

Barth, that looks like a keeper. I'm looking at another 9mm. The S&W M&P Pro 5" version for IDPA competition.

Finally got rid of that damned Diamondback. Hope this guy has better luck than I did with it.

Another size comparison, Ruger LCP vs Boberg XR9S. They are about the same length, the Boberg is a 1/4" - 1/2" depending which mag base you have on it.
