Extar EP9 Gen 1 9 mm Luger Pistol – 6.5-Inch Threaded Barrel, Brace, Polymer AR-9 Platform
The Extar EP9 Gen 1 blends lightweight polymer construction with AR-style ergonomics in a compact 9 mm package.

This EP9 uses a direct-blowback, semi-automatic action paired with Extar’s Advanced Recoil Impulse Damping System buffer and cone, mitigating felt recoil in a lightweight build.
The 6.5-inch steel barrel is black-nitrided for corrosion resistance and threaded 1/2-28 TPI, ready for muzzle devices or suppressors. A full-length Picatinny top rail provides ample space for optics or iron sights.
Monolithic glass-filled-polymer upper and lower receivers keep weight to a minimum while incorporating steel reinforcements at wear points. The grid-pattern polymer handguard includes molded Picatinny segments for accessory mounting.
Controls follow familiar AR-style placement with a left-side non-reciprocating charging handle, standard magazine release, and a manual safety selector. The pistol ships with a skeletonized SB Tactical brace and a B5 Systems Type 23 P-Grip for a secure, comfortable hold.
