Sure glad I didn't re-mortgage the house for an R9.  I did give up a month of movies instead for the PF9 - which, BTW, has more than 200 rds thru it - some of the CorBon DPX - without so much as a bobble or bibbledydo.  Disappears in my front pocket, too.

My itty bitty teensy weensy Kel-Tec P3AT, which is at least 1/3 the cost of a "R" pistol, has never had a stupid remark made by the manufacturer.

"and was told that the gun shouldn't be fired that much as it was meant to be a carry gun and not a regular shooting gun!"
"It didn't make any sense that a gun that finely made and expensive wasn't made to be shot a lot. Except that today the head of Rohrbaugh, Karl Rohrbaugh, called us about the guns we had sent and during the course of the discussion he confirmed that the gun was not intended to be shot a lot and that 150 rounds was too much."

150 is 3 boxes of ammo, for the price, I would expect it to handle that amount.

F-350 Ford Super Duty can tow 15,000 lbs, just not everyday.... ???

What did PT Barnum say?

Pay A grand for a gun that breaks at 150 rounds? CAN YOU SAY RIPOFF! Or did I just get spoiled on my Glocks and Ruger P Series pistols?
