“At the heart of the new APC9 Limited guns is our new fully ambidextrous aluminum lower receiver featuring a highly functional flared magazine well similar in size and shape to our popular jet-funnel accessory, yet formed directly into the receiver,” said Chris Mudgett Vice President of Marketing, B&T USA. “We hit the sweet spot with the 8.9-inch variant with its longer slick forend and MBT stock; this combination makes for an extremely fast-handling, lightweight, ergonomic platform whose fit can be so dialed in, it feels like a natural extension.”

In addition to the new aluminum receiver set, M-LOK accessory slots are positioned at 3-, 6-, and 9-o’clock, an all-new folding telescopic MDT stock assembly with three-position adjustable cheek riser and eight length of pull settings offers the ultimate in functionality and dialed in ergonomics for shooters of all shapes, sizes, and preferences. A pair of QD sling cups adorn either side of the stock, while a rubberized buttstock offers secure, yet comfortable purchase. A flat-faced Elftmann Tactical trigger system rounds out these premium variants of our very popular APC9 that are being offered in finite quantities.

About the APC9 PRO

The APC9 PRO is based upon the United States Army and Air Force adopted APC9K submachine gun and utilizes an innovative hydraulic buffer system to drastically reduce felt recoil and muzzle rise. The platform features functional updates to the original APC series including dual auto-folding, non-reciprocating and ambidextrous charging handles, improved lower receiver ergonomics that include a side positioned bolt hold open/release, removable M4 compatible grip, and Magpul M-Lok accessory slots located on the forend. Like many B&T SMG’s, the APC9 accepts all APC9 PRO lower receiver groups, meaning it can be equipped to accommodate Glock magazines, SIG P320 magazines, or proprietary B&T magazines by simply switching the non-serialized lower receiver group.
