P-01 on its way to Robar
« on: November 15, 2013, 01:11:49 AM »
Hi everyone,

I am sending my P-01 off to Robar for refinishing.  It will probably take a couple of months to get back but I know it will be worth the wait. 

I am getting the following services:

NP3+ to slide and internals (slide, barrel, trigger, hammer, decocker, slide stop, mag release)
Poly-T2 Gunmetal gray on the frame. 

This will be the 3rd handgun that I have had refinished by Robar.  I can't say enough about the quality work they do and I can't wait to get my P-01 back. 

Oh, here are a couple of pictures of my SP-01 and Beretta that have been refinished by Robar.






I will of course be posting pictures as soon as I get her back.

-Jason

That's gonna be stinkin' awesome when you get it back.  The picts of your existing ones are way cool too.  I've been slobbering over Robar for years now but have yet to send anything to them.  There was an online article (forget where) a few years back about a Robar'ed Kahr P45 that I fell in love with.  Always wanted to do the same to my TP9.

Somebody a few months back sold a P-01 on GunBroker and it was Robar'ed, satin-ish finish, NP3 I think.  Very Very Cool !

Picts when you get it back...please.

All said and done for the refinishing I am getting + one additional magazine, is around $400.  One magazine is included in the price. 

I am also getting the NP3+ finish on the slide.  that costs a little extra. 

Their price list and order form are located here:

And just because I thought it was flipping cool:

Yep, that is my SP-01.   ;D

Just got the work order from Robert, 16 January is the estimated completion date.  So, that is about 7 weeks. 

It's going to be a long wait.

I love Robar. I had a 92 Centurion done in it. I know they have to strip anodizing off stuff like the frames of berettas. NP3 is sweet and slick.

Great looking Robar'd guns.

I have acquired a P-01 with a Robar NP3+ slide and all internal steel parts. The frame is the stock matte black alloy finish; back when it was done there was some question if they could do the scandium/aluminum frames.  It's not a pro-tek, but it's pretty sweet - all the robar'd parts look perfect (no surprises there, it should outlast me). It was filthy, and when I took it home I cleaned it with (drum roll) my air compressor. If that's not an endorsement of Robar, I don't know what is.

A robar'd P01 is near perfection!

 ;D

I am not much of a photographer - but here's one from my iphone. btw- there is a serial number, I just don't like showing them online so I blurred it. The whole "gun registry thingy" is why :D

The holster is an HBE IWB model for the P01 and it fits exquisitely. The gun looks much better in person, of course.

That looks great!  Looking forward to mine getting back, I was think of those same grips.

The whole pro-tek thing got me thinking so I drove over to the cz custom shop... I ended up buying the pro-tek style grips and the tactical night sights. They installed both while I waited. Very cool shop, incredible customer service. I'd recommend these grips over the VZ personally - those other grips would dig right through my T-shirt, and I am sensitive to that YMMV.

This picture shows more of the Robar'd parts (at least the ones outside - all the internal steel parts were done too, including the barrel).
