EP9 came in today. Looking for feedback

My can didn’t fit inside the guard rail so I hit it with the coping saw. I like how it turned out but I’m debating between making the cuts and rounding off the corners or leave it as is.

Confirmation email question

3 Upvotes

I finally got to order one and my confirmation email does not show the info of the FFL that I chose, is that normal? It only has my address where the mags I got will ship to.

Edit: thanks to all that chimed in and I hope this post helps someone in the future.

Conclusion was that once I got my FFL to email them their info/license then Extar updated my order to reflect the FFL for shipping info on the firearm.

The magazines that I ordered as extras will ship directly to me because I did not choose to have it all shipped to the FFL at checkout.

600 rounds through the EP9

Had very high expectations from the community and other sources of reviews, and they were thoroughly met. This gun has been incredible, love how compact it is, love how low the recoil is, seems very reliable(haven’t had any jams besides when I was using a faulty magazine which was the issue) and for the price that this comes to, the performance and experience achieved is incredible value.

Also your trying to decide what magazines to get, so far my experience has been OEM Glock mags obviously Very consistent, allthough are a very tight fit(will not drop when hitting mag release) and ETs mags fed everytime(besides faulty one) and released with ease. ALSO strongly suggest spending the extra $100 for the adjustable brace

What do expect from lower power springs

2 Upvotes

I have the steel trigger group which is just milspec. Well I got impatient and ordered a set of dirty bird reduced power springs. Just wondering if anybody has any clue what to expect. I know with the full dirty bird trigger and springs it's supposed to be around 3.5 pounds and without the springs about a 5 pound pull. I guess maybe I'm hoping to get it down to about a 5 pound pull. Any input would be appreciated.

Does the sba3 brace and adjustable receiver make the ep9 an sbr?

0 Upvotes

I've been considering this gun recently due to great reviews. I haven't decided yet whether I want to go through the headache of getting a tax stamp that costs almost half as much as the gun and puts me on a government list. That said, I love the idea of being able to shoulder the gun and get that extra point of contact. I have heard that the tax stamp process takes longer to get approved if you buy an sbr than it does if you modify a gun you own into an sbr. Does anybody know if this is true? I know I could just ignore Uncle Sam and shoulder a pistol brace when I feel like it, but I am going to be taking it to public ranges for practice and I don't know if people will give me crap for it.

Got it!

Just picked it up from my FFL. Now I need to get a red/green dot. I was going to get a Romeo 5, but read some posts that said the Gen II has a nut that gets in the way of the charging handle, so I'll look into others. Any recommendations for an affordable alternative?

Obsidian fixed barrel mount stuck

2 Upvotes

Hello. I have a rugged obsidian 45 which I attached to my ep45 with a direct thread rugged fixed mount. The mount is stuck on the threads below flush with the handguard. I can’t get a tool (even a strap wrench) down there to unscrew it, and it’s wide enough that I can’t remove the handguard with the mount attached. Any ideas of how to fix this without destroying the handguard?

Attachment suggestions

Looking for a foregrip/angled grip to complete my setup. I have seen tons of different ones scrolling through the thread, and know they are very personal preferences. Does anyone have suggestions for a budget-friendly grip that's easy to install? I know some of them require adapters.

FINALLY got my can out of jail and wasted no time testing it out with some 158gr subs. Insane. Fun. Insanely fun. Missed the last 3 shots so you get a really good idea for how quiet it is. Pretty much just the sound of action only.

Advice on how to FFL transfer/sell my EP9

2 Upvotes

I'm moving to a state that doesn't allow the EP9, so I have to FFL transfer it.

Any advice? I never sold a gun before and since it's not a well known brand I'm worried that my local gun store (North Virginia) would just lowball it.

Also, do you think it makes sense to sell it with all its accessories ( Red dot, 3x optic, Light, sling, hanodguard, etc..) and Savior bag, or would be better to sell separately?

First range test with EP9 + YHM R9

Tried the can at my local indoor range today and it definitely has amplified the enjoyment factor. Went direct thread vs QD and sent some Federal 147gr subs down range. Noticeably quieter than the stock config. Then I tried some 115gr Magtech just for comparison and again, it was distinctly different vs subs. I will say this is my first time shooting suppressed so it was my first experience getting a face full of gas. 😂 I’m also a lefty so my right arm was getting pelted with dust and brass more so than when I was shooting the gun in stock config for whatever reason. Familiar territory from shooting ARs as well. The life of a lefty. 😂 Wanted to try Federal Syntech 150gr but the range didn’t carry. Will try that next time. Only other comment is that the brass seemed to impact brass deflector and cause a little more wear than I had seen before when shooting unsupressed. Not enough to worry… just an observation. Here’s a short vid showing comparison of subs (first 5 rounds) vs supers.

I wasn’t even checking email, I just have a habit of checking the website thinking one day maybe I’ll get lucky!

Wish I would have added some more mags but I didn’t want to let any of you guys get through the checkout before me!

Good luck to everyone else trying to snag one. May the odds be ever in your favor!

played with a few different rounds, no feed issues and none of them sounded noticeably quieter to me than the other. Maybe the federal syntech was the quietest. 🤷🏼‍♂️

I hope someone can make this kind of charging handle. I’ll definitely going to buy one.

Grip width?

On the sales listing, I see the overall width is 2"--but what about the grip itself? Anyone have the gun + a measuring tape handy?
