Could the ep45 come to canadian markets? Especially since after the brigade and carmel are entering? It looks like it could surpass it takes glock mags and shoots .45

i believe someone was interested in importing the EP9 and it was decided that this was an AR variant

could be making that up though idr

u/vARROWHEAD Jul 09 '26

Making it up is the basis for the FRT so that’s probably accurate

I don't see it in Armalytics, would probably need to ask CFP to examine one and give it an FRT entry

Depends if the lower could fit a AR upper. If not then yes it could

It uses an AR pattern lower and upper so probably not.

Doesn’t the mk15 use one as well?

That's a shame. It's such a nice rifle but not sold in Canada.

I'd like it compatible to a silencer. Of course, the silencer is prohibitted here as well. Sadly.

Like most of these types of inquiries, it depends? I think when it’s easy to claim as a “variant” I’d say no, but otherwise it likely could if it hits the other criteria needed to avoid prohibition.

Really it’s up to an individual or business to submit an FRT. AND the importer/businesses need to be risk tolerant enough to think that importing for sale is safe enough. But MAN do I ever hope that we get more stuff like this.

This isn’t much of a known firearm. I was just scrolling on a website and came across it, it looked awesome and fun. I figured id post it on the sub reddit. Honestly not sure who makes it

u/Dill_Pickle_Tears Jul 08 '26

Would be nice either way! The more that flood the market the more get made. We need competition but the constant slow-release / retroactive ban approach is what was killing interest.

Consumers and businesses view it as too high risk, but the longer the current semi auto offerings stay legal, the more options we’ll start to get.

u/567432Gains Jul 07 '26

Edit” also where are you seeing it uses an AR upper?

u/loganisme12 Jul 07 '26
