Just for Fun! - Engineering Automatic Slide Pullback and Release (empty chamber)
16 Replies

Just musing today and thought of an overly complicated method to skip the "rack-the-slide-everytime-due-to-the-unique-firing-mech-of-the-Boberg XR9" "problem". Sure it's not needed, but solving…Continue

Boberg "XR9S/M/L Model" - aka All in ONE Model? Any Consideration?
6 Replies

I know that a lot of people are still waiting for "their" model to come out; whether it is the XR-9M or 'full-length' XR-9L. Everyone also knows that Boberg can't afford to even think (let alone…Continue

Integrated Laser: Yay or Nay? Plus: Ideas for a Switch

I know that Arne was thinking about making an integrated laser in the Full-Size XR9, but would there be enough room for one in the Mid-Size as well?  Wondering if the (IMHO of course) ugly bulge…Continue

"Possible" Model... How to make it a "future" model?
1 Reply

Couldn't find a poll or anything about how to voice our opinion on the "micro vs m' debate or whether Boberg arms is even considering one of the other.If there is someone keeping tabs, my vote would…Continue

"Black does indeed look very good Arne.  Great job!  Can't believe I'm saying this, but I actually prefer the original silver/black theme.  I can't explain it since I normally like all black guns.  Maybe it just…"

"Arne, Pretty excited for the black Boberg, but couldn't you make the barrel, trigger, and trigger transfer bar black as well?  Seems like you did that on the "Silver theme"...  Kinda got it backwards on the guns (silver…"

PTrinh replied to Kevin L Dearth's discussion If no Arne thus no XR-9s what gun purchase would you have made?
"If the Boberg didn't exist, I would have went for a HK P7/P7M8.  Not in the same size category mind you, but I'm just a sucker for engineering marvels and it shows in my "grail" EDC possessions (of which I only have one of…"

PTrinh replied to Steve Shadwick's discussion Problem with my new XR9s
"Arne, maybe incorporate a fluted chamber like the HK P7 series? I'll admit that I have no idea how your mech works and if such a thing can bee added.  I'm sure there are also patents to jump by as well... Guess you are going to…"

"OK, I didn't know how hard it would be to spot the round on the breach face.  Regarding capacity, what I meant was that it would reduce your "continuous" firing capacity.  You fire off 7 rounds and then have to pause and hit…"

"The flag thing is fine, but what if you still pull the trigger and the weapon is now empty?  The flag would have to indicate whether you have an empty magazine or an empty chamber.  I guess we could have the hammer/trigger locked back upon…"

PTrinh replied to Techat Chatanuluk's discussion When .40S&W or .45Auto Boberg will be in production?
"Then, I believe that may be a key issue.  The heavier bullet will tend to stay put twice as much.  I'm sure you (Arne) are thinking about making a jig that can serve as a test bed for the XR mechanism with differing ammo.  Maybe…"

PTrinh replied to BretShooter's discussion Rohrbaugh 45 in the works...
"IMHO, I don't like it....  At all.  It won't be in the same market niche as a future Boberg XR45 due to its size.  Rohrbaugh obviously had to make compromises during the model up scaling.  I wonder what Arne will…"

"Yep.  Suspect was over 300lbs, overweight and out-of-shape, armed with a .22 NAA derringer.  Trooper Mark Coates (ex-marine), muscular, probably over 200lbs, great shape, armed with body-armor and a .357 revolver with +p rounds…"
