Boberg XR9-S is now shipping

[CZ-Guy]

For those who have pre-ordered, the XR9-S (shorty) is now shipping in stages. The first batch have been shipped out and the owners are starting to post some good feedback/range reports here: http://www.bobergarms.com/forum/topics/xr9-s-reviews

For those who still want to join the pre-order list, you can find it here: http://www.bobergarms.com/page/pre-order-request-form

Per Arne Boberg, he will be shipping out approximately 80 a month on a first-come first-served basis. He'll be filling backorders for a while. The initial cost is $949 plus shipping.

I'm seeing lots of discussion in the forum about other variations that are being worked on as well (including a full-size and a micro - maybe even other calibers).

80 a month? Sounds like he needs to step up his game.

^ Ruger's a huge company and they're reportedly only putting out 300 or so SR1911s a month.

Hopefully, it'll be a success and the'll be able to make more.

I'm rooting for him!

(I'll probably buy a Beretta Nano, though. )

^Oops, it was 200 PER DAY. My bad.

for a new maker, 80 a month is pretty darn good.

Is the trigger any good I wonder?

 

[CZ-Guy]

From everything I've read, the trigger is great. The reference in the video to "hitting my finger" was from the cameraman who was hit by one of the ejected casings.
