FX9 2021 Update

[Wolverine .303]

The forecast ain't looking good folks. I want to be upfront and clear with everyone here so there are no false expectations. There is a very high probability that we will not see any Non-restricted FX9 carbines this year. Due to overwhelming demand in the US, and the enormous backlog of purchase orders that they still have outstanding their production cannot keep up.



Now we should be seeing a small shipment of restricted models coming in the near future, more details on these ones will follow soon. Check in with your local dealer on the restricted models, but be advised there will not be any available info on the NR versions for quite some time.



Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this is the reality we are currently in.

What about parts? Spare uppers, barrel nuts etc?

Happy i picked up a ruger PCC yesterday online when I did.

 

[Sqr]

I wish the Canadian companies manufacturers would make a 9mm.

 

[Artvark]

What about the extended charging handles?

 

[Foxer2373]

I will be shocked if this survives and arrives before the liberals take another axe to the NR list.

 

[MisterVRT]

Might not be a viable option, but IBI does make a 18.6" barrel for the FX-9, worth looking into

I wish the Canadian companies would manufacturers would make a 9mm.

Call me silly, but a short and light bolt action 9mm rifle that took glock mags (or affordable proprietary mags with no limit) would be tons of fun at the range. Bolt gun should be reasonable for a Canadian company to make without too many hiccups either

Buy a restricted one, buy an IBI barrel, have it converted... while you can!!!

You could always take your chances on the Lockhart Raven 9 pre-order. It's basically a fx9 from what I see. And Lockhart is Canadian

Looks good in all ways, except Lockhart isn't on point from past experience. Prove me wrong I hope.

 

[Dexter Morgan]

What about the pistol/sbr version of the FX9?

Any of those coming in?

 

[coldfire]

Why not negotiate a manufacturing licence with them . Any overage could be sent stateside to them to cover orders.

This.

Aside from the bolt action aspect you're basically describing a JR Carbine. I have one and its absolutely awesome, and amazing for a lefty shooter. AR form factor, swappable ejection and charging handle, glock mags, 9mm, .40s&w, .45acp, AR parts (handguard, stocks/buffer tube, grips), I don't know why they aren't the most popular gun in Canada atm.

 

[IAFS]

Now there's gonna be that guy on the EE going north of 2k...

 

[Suspect187]

I don't know why they aren't the most popular gun in Canada atm.

I heard they are a PITA to disassemble to clean. I prefer my FX9 and its AR controls.

Something like a lever action in 9mm would be a lot of fun.

 

[RDalton]

Very disappointing new..just got my PAL and was at the top of my wish list.

 

[Weekend Gunslingers]

How long would the barrels be on the restricted versions?
