Nice. Ive never heard of this brand but after doing some google searches this looks pretty awesome.
The price is a little bit out of my range. Im currently considering the Kahr CM9 for a 9mm pocket carry.

It's definitely a cool design. More barrel length means more velocity out of the same overall slide length, so that's a good thing. I'll be curious how the reliability turns out as more and more of the guns enter the market. A radically different design and a new manufacturer means I wouldn't trust my life to a first generation model without some substantial testing first, but the design is certainly quite intriguing.
I'd imagine with +p loads that will punish your hands almost as bad as shooting .357s out of a J frame smith. Muzzle flip should be quite substantial. But that much power in that small a package is very cool.

Sweet little gun. First time I have heard of it too. I like the design but also dont know if I would trust my life to a first gen gun.
A, not so glowing review, on "Truth about Gun" web site last week: http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2012/05/eric-nelson/gun-review-boberg-xr9-s-update/
Crazy interesting design. I have been following this one since its introduction. Don't know how I feel about the action but I love the ingenuity. This is what will keep the gun industry moving forward.
Let us know how she fires!
