Re: EXTAR EP9 - 9mm AR-ish pistol
Oh wow! These come in 10mm and 45 ACP as well as 9mm!!!
I'm really interested in this because of the price - and now because I could have a 45ACP "AR" for dirt cheap.
I called to check my ZIP CODE!....DY-NO-MITE!!!

Re: EXTAR EP9 - 9mm AR-ish pistol
Curious to know if this can be converted to a standard buffer tube and sbr'd. I reached out to Extar a few weeks ago and they made it clear as mud, as in "we don't want our guns to be mistaken for ARs". Guess they think that if another ban occurs, their not-EBR will be spared the fate of the AR.
It looks like the buffer tube is proprietary. Wonder if an adapter could be fashioned to allow it to take an AR stock.

Re: EXTAR EP9 - 9mm AR-ish pistol
From what I have read in youtube comments the answer is no. Only parts that are compatible at this time are grips and some trigger components. I’m thinking this was intentionally done to make it NOT AR like. However it’s black and shoots bullets out of 30 round mags so if that was their intention they failed.
Personally looks wise it’s way to much plastic for me. So far they appear to be reliable but I haven’t seen a single review that has gone past a few hundred rounds.

Re: EXTAR EP9 - 9mm AR-ish pistol
I got the same impression from their customer service folks. It's a shame because I'd buy the 45 and 10mm version if I could submit the forms and SBR them. The 45 version with a can would make a great HD gun. In its current state I guess it could still, but I'd like the option to put a vertical grip on it along with a folding stock. If I cave and do buy one, I'd probably make a stock adapter or find someone that could.

I keep watching the limited number of videos I can find and now I'm trying to decide what gun I can sell to get one of these.
Unless some design failure crops up once these have a few thousand rounds through them, I can see no reason to build an AR15 in pistol caliber - ever again.
Well, there are a few reasons, but most I can think of are based on "customization", as these don't allow you to pick and choose every single aspect of the gun as you build it. I think the hand guard looks horrible and there isn't much you can do about it.
That said, for the price, you learn to accept the little things you don't care for.
I'm determined to get one of these. Now I need to determine if I want it in 9mm or 45ACP. (I submitted my email address to be notified when the 45 is released)I called to check my ZIP CODE!....DY-NO-MITE!!!

I wouldn't rush too fast to get one of these just yet since it's yet to prove itself for the long haul unlike the AR but that's just me.

Re: EXTAR EP9 - 9mm AR-ish pistol
These look neat. It’s ugly but I like it. I just can’t justify more then 1 pistol calibers “pistol” and I already have a CZ Scorpion that I love.
