They are in stock right now. 5pm Mountian Time, as they say on their site.
Mine is ordered.
This Might be the next evolution for us with the Roni. Ima think on it and what it might offer that the Roni doesn't give us. Any help would be appreciated. Right now the Roni has a mini Bushnell red dot and no other mods. I'm new to this and am so taken with the concept I could easily be swayed to this but help me as to what it would offer me extra over Mr. Roni???
Thanks Ole Pard but not a deciding factor for me.I can suppress the Extar today (if I had one), but I can't do that with a Roni.

In fact I have Total access to the Real Deal. I seldom shoot it suppressed but can if I wish.This is what you need @BatteryOaksBilly it will take you back to the 60s. No need for evolution. Nothing smoother than a roller delayed blowback.
Just picked up one of these second hand (got a deal) with an AT3 red dot sight. This one has a B5 pistol grip and a Fab Defense fore grip. Came with a 33 round mag (Glock). Played around with it this afternoon, taking it apart and putting it back together. Looked like you could drop a trigger group in, so I stuck an extra Risa Armament trigger in, but had to replace the safety select for it to work. Trying to get to the range to see how much fun this can be!
It's a 3/4 foregrip, not vertical, thanks.Make sure the Fab defense grip is not a vertical foregrip, as that can get you into trouble, as Slacker cleverly pointed out.
I mentioned "needing a decent grip" earlier in the thread, but didn't explain.
My hands are man-sized. On any AR or 1911, to use the pad of my finger, my finger is pointed back at me, not perpendicular to the trigger.
I’ve never tried one. Thanks for the tip.
I’ve actually never used any AR aftermarket trigger. I don’t know if this gun is a good candidate for one, since part of its mission is to be cheap fun.
Mine has run over 1000 rounds without an issue.
Has not been cleaned or lubed.
At one point I swapped in an aftermarket trigger, but put the factory plastic one back in.
I have used a few grips on it, and swapped in an ambi safety.
The price of AR-9s has come way down.... it’s not as easy a choice anymore.
But....it is light, for sure.
You get your Glock back!what it might offer that the Roni doesn't give us
Somewhere there’s a company that mages an AR pistol grip that holds spare Glock mags.
I think that would be a fun thing to have for this gun.
EDIT: Here it is...

Which begs the question, why didn't they make the Extar feed from the grip like the Sub2k, CX4, etc? There is no reason for a pistol caliber weapon to have a separate mag well that adds 3" to the overall length.
I'd much rather have it shorter than have it try and look like an AR or "assault weapon", which is the only reason I can think of for building it the way they did.
Nice. I'd really like to try one of these but last time I was there they were back ordered. Did it take long to get it?
Will be a while before I can put some ammo through it, but I'll have a full write up when I do.
Some initial thoughts:
-For $400 it comes with and SB brace standard. No adapter/tube/brace combo to buy.
-It's extremely light and handles well.
-I can't find a comfortable set up for the handguard. I don't really like the AFG- you can't go thumb over bore very well with it. I'll probably end up taking it off.
-Comes with a factory "brake" of sorts on the muzzle threads. No real need to buy something else unless you just want to trick it out. I would assume between the internal buffer and brake combo the recoil's going to me minuscule.
-I've never tried the B5 grips, but it's actually a really nice one, and I wasn't able to find one in my parts I liked better on it.
-Ideally, I'd like a standard small red dot on top, but astigmatism ruins that. I'd like something smaller to match the size and weight of the rifle, but there aren't a lot of small 1x prisms on the market.
5 days from order placed to FFL.Nice. I'd really like to try one of these but last time I was there they were back ordered. Did it take long to get it?
Scratch that, I was looking at the 10mm. Wait or go 9mm? Free citizen problems!
What do you need that for?
That was owned by EXtar and they sold the rights to NFA concentrate solely on the EP9.Kinda looks like the New Frontier EXP-556 MK2... But with a buffer tube...

Any mag that will work in a Glock 19 should work. Glock 26 mags are too short.Quick newbie question. This gun "takes Glock mags." Does that mean *any* 9mm Glock mags?
ok thanks. So if I have a Glock 48, I can't use those mags.Any mag that will work in a Glock 19 should work. Glock 26 mags are too short.
The cheapo Korean 33-rounders I have are super-tight, and won't drop free; and I've read comments from other folks that even the Glock-branded 33's are a tight fit. Standard Glock-branded and Magpul G19 mags fit properly and drop free. I haven't tried anything but 15's and 33's.
