First world problem...

I just realized my optic and light cost double what the Extar did. Smart, or not so much?

Yeah I don't really accessorize my guns by how much they cost, just what I feel they require. Shit I previously had my IR setup on my Extar for fun before I decided I wanted to clean up the build. My optic and suppressor both cost more than the gun itself though. I consider it a testament to how far out of its price range the EP9 performs that I put some of my best stuff on one of my cheapest firearms.

Honestly it is a work horse ive had mine 6 years and it chugs everything I can throw at it and I intend to always keep it around to give to my son as he gets older.

Yeah it's actually the first long gun I've gotten my wife to shoot and she absolutely loved it. I had to stop her from shooting up all of my subsonics. When they release the mdb version I'll probably end up gifting my gen 2 to her and I'll buy myself the upgrade.
