Boberg XR9 (SHOT 2008)

Thanks, Corey - now I don't have to take a picture for the up-and-coming BobergArms.com website.

All the production tooling is out of my hands, so if I continue guessing when that stuff gets done, I get blamed on both ends. But we are making progress every day - it's all gotta get done before we run out of money! That's the best I can do!

I just wanted to chime in and say that while it will most certainly be out of my price range, I appreciate the thinking that went into this. Far too many pistols are just a different finish on the same thing. I wish you the best in this endeavor and hopefully one day I will be able to afford one.

I don't think I heard a price range and I'm curious about a ball park figure. Abbo, do you have a price you're shooting for barring unforseen variable popping up?

Just out of curiosity, did you ever decide on any alternatives to the bolt hold open? I understand that with this gun's operating system, it really isn't practical to have the bolt hold open on the last round, but I seem to remember the old FN 1900 .32 pocket pistol having a pin that stuck up to block one's view of the sights when the chamber was empty, indicating to the firer that the gun needed to be reloaded.

I realize that with the gun ready to begin mass production, it's probably much too late to insert such a feature into the design, but did you by chance come up with such a concept on your own, and already engineer it into the weapon?
