The '''Rohm RG''' (also known as the "'''RG-8'''"

== History / Pop-Culture ==

The '''Rohm RG8''' pistol was featured in Hong Kong action film "[[Royal Warriors (A.K.A. "In the Line of Duty")|Royal Warriors]]", and is carried by security guard Michael Wong in an ankle holster as his duty weapon. Of course, the irony being that in real life, it's actually a gun that fires 8mm blanks.
