B&T APC9

I don’t see a thread about this gun yet so here goes

Think B&T will bring it to the US market like they did with the TP9? Canadians are gonna be able to have it soon. I realize pistol caliber SMGs are a little passe these days and most military and police are moving to 5.56 carbines but I think it looks pretty rad anyway. I’d love to have one, it tickles my fancy.

Cool looking gun, but I’m not sure of a market for it in the U.S.

looks cool. yeah an AR or some such is probably a better choice but depending on price I would consider getting one just for fun.

I will definitely buy one if they become available. Very cool design.

Looks similar to the HK UMP.

Are they gonna make one .40.

I hope its more reliable than the TP9 SBR that I fired a couple years ago. That thing needed to be soaked in lube or it would choke repeatedly. Looks like a (possibly) semi-affordable way for guys to get into a modern polymer framed 9mm carbine. The UMP 9mm conversions are prohibitivlely expensive and the CX4 is just…eh.

TP9’s felt goofy. This daddy likes the looks of. :dirol: Now that I have my ddm4v7 I have been wanting a 9 SMGish weapon to sbr. Sadly most available are goofy or ar HK clones and don’t run well.

Hey boys lookey what I found here!!!

My TP9 is 100% with all ammo I’ve put through it. Even 100% with my B&T suppressor.

With the B&T TP9 I have always heard hit or miss similar to what I always hear with Bushmaster stuff, hit or miss.

The few guys I talked to that had or used to have TP9 we’re a mix of always ran perfectly or was a jam-o-matic.

I really hope they can get these here non-neutered, non-sporterized, “cough” HK USC.

Certainly looks interesting. Is there actual talk of it coming to market in the US, or is this more of a “wouldn’t it be nice” type thing?

Jeez, the mag well is nearly large enough for a rifle cartridge, and the frame certainly looks like it can accommodate it.

I’d be interested if it was.

it does look like it was left intentionally big. =P we can hope

Something is very wrong with something (either gun or ammo). We got more than a few TP9 SBRs and have run them bone dry without issue on several occasions.

Just to follow up on this thread I heard that DSA is looking to import the APC in “pistol form” to the USA.

It will be much more expensive than the TP9 though.

So this means I guess a version with a dinky little buttpaddy thing in the rear and just SBR and buy Folding stock.
Not sure about this part you SBR NFA Guys will know more about SBRing a pistol.

That would be nice if they imported it and possibly sbr it as a DSA option as well. I think I’d rather have this than a TP9 but it’s neat that it can accept the same mags as well.

I will get one if its sold here and Swiss made. I have the TP9 and it works flawlessly.

300BLK anyone?

I’d bite, depending on the price.
