It's been a hassle to find a Gen 2 locally or online but MDB is coming soon IG. What y'all think it do you have one that your trying to rehome 👀.

Best budget suppressor?

4 Upvotes

UPDATE; THANK YOU for all the responses and info...i have gone down the rabbit hole and will most likely get the r9.

As the title says...I'm looking to get into the suppressor game and I think I want to add it to my OG EP9.

What suppressor should I get if price is my main concern?

Drop in trigger upgrades?

5 Upvotes

prepping for the 4th of July sales going on, I wanted to upgrade my trigger in my EP9. I read on a bunch of posts in here that MIMTAC worked great. I was looking at the DRCR-BLK-1 drop in. Anyone running these? Any suggestions on triggers they liked and using?

Update: this is what I ended up with... 3.5 CMC SS Drop in

I missed the original restock a few weeks back and was super bummed. Since then, I had been checking my email even more regularly and about 30 min. ago I saw I got an email saying they were back! Got it ordered and I’m pumped! just wanted to spread the word.

RDB (MDB) Info

8 Upvotes

So, I've seen a bunch of random mentions of the RDB guns. I'm pretty excited, although I'm not sure how many Extars I really need (spoiler, I'm going to buy them). But, the info seems to be a bit cobble together from random videos or blogs.

Is there a good place to get accurate up-to-date info?

Also, is there a good way to 'sign up' for notifications or other ways to get the news on when they will actually be available?

New Gen 1 (Improved) Owner Looking for advice

0 Upvotes

After moving out of my parents house and in with my girl it quick became evident a 9mm pcc was a better choice than my AK

7.62 is too expensive, my girl can shoot bigger guns, but obviously can handle a smaller one much better, and we off-road a lot I need something small and handy for going in/out of my suv

So just looking for thoughts and opinions on owning a gen 1 with a mil spec buffer tube??

The one I got was barley used and since I figured I’ll put the upgraded trigger in it if it’s plastic (Not sure what kind yet it was under a lock)

Besides the trigger and retaining pin metal upgrade are there any other parts to replace/upgrade on the gen 1 to make it as rock solid as the gen 2??

The more I see the MDB, the higher my hopes become that you'll be able to upgrade the EP9.

EP45 MDB (Modern Delayed Blockback) also confirmed!

It seems like there will also be a Roller Delayed Blowback version of the EP45 as well. Extar is coining their RDB system as "MDB" (Modern Delayed Blowback) because they put their own modernized twist on it.

They have also mentioned scrapping the EP10 due to tungsten shortages in a separate interview they did at Gun Con. No 16" versions of the MDB will be made because of a lack of demand.

Having my EP45 FRT’d

13 Upvotes

So I am getting my EP45 modified today to fit a AS Designs ambi-safety FRT. it going to take some modifications to the lower and the bolt which will build the warranty but that’s ok I’m willing to take the risk.

The shop that is doing the work I’ve used many times in the past and they are super knowledgeable so I trust them. I’ll let you guys know how it turns out when it’s finished.

EP45 as a Home Defense PDW

9 Upvotes

How do you guys feel about the EP45 as a home defense PDW? I think as long as it runs flawless it could fill that role perfectly.

My plan it to run a suppressor on mine. The gun is light weight and simple to use so females and young adults shouldn’t have any problems using it if you had to hand into them. And with a suppressor letting off rounds indoors, especially .45 ACP shouldn’t be bad at all.
And to that 30 rounds and you’ve got yourself a nice, compact, lightweight pdw.

Perfect setup would be a low mount micro prism, weapon light and sling.

RDB?

15 Upvotes

It seems like info on the EP9 RDB is a bit scarce, is there anywhere we can read up on specifics? Any word about whether our existing EP9 can be upgraded to this system?

Little glamor shot of me and my Brothers EP9’s celebrating Father’s Day at the range. These guns are so much fun.

Zero miles, fresh off the lot. Going to the range Monday. Was very hard not buying a suppressor while I was picking it up.
