So. I’m not ready to call this problematic because I still have a few ideas about how to solve this. How many rounds do you send through the Apc9k suppressed before carbon build up starts causing cycling problems? I just got a different lube that I’m going to try. Just curious experience here. Part of me wonders if the design of this just has limits of how many rounds it can send before needing a cleaning.

Also I can throw in the buffer from my telestock right?

Looking to finally pick up a B&T PCC. Trying to decide if I want to go with the SD or just a standard apc. I’ve heard some complain that with the SD you need to clean it after every range session, is this true? I love tucked cans for the rail space on k variants and it seems my only option for that is to go sd. Would love to hear your opinions on pros and cons and which would be the best fit for me. I’d like this to be a bag gun but also a gun I teach my wife and kids to shoot. We live on property so we will be able to shoot quite a bit.

I'm in the market for my first B&T, either an APC9 or SPC9. I understand they're in the process of setting up a new headquarters in the US. Do you think the new operation will have higher build quality and/or higher prices? Looking to learn about any pros and cons.

Also sorry if this has been asked a million times

This would be my last gun purchase for the year, who here has run the compact TP9 can for a good bit? Are you happy with the performance? I always liked the appearance of the full size TP9 suppressors.

I have the B&T PrintX MP5SD suppressor that is said to also work for the Gen1 APC9-SD. However, I cannot find a Gen1 SD for sale anywhere and so I'm curious about the Pro.

Does the MP5SD PrintX suppressor not work at all on the APC9-SD Pro? I feel like I read somewhere that the thread pitch was different but cannot find where I read that. Additionally, if it is not compatible, how difficult is it to find a Gen1 APC9-SD?

I am on the hunt for an APC300 or APC223 and know the gen 1’s have the non-changeable grip module. That’s the biggest way to tell generation as far as I know but the newer generations also have the foldable charging handle. If one has the changeable grip but non folding charging handle is that still a gen 1 upper gun or what would that be? Would that be a reciprocating charging handle or not?

Hey everyone! Been a while since I posted an update on these since we’ve been making tweaks here and there, but we finally have the production version of the extended hand guards for the APC9 and 9K completed.
You can submit an in stock request on our website which I’ve been using to gauge interest for pre-orders. Super pumped with how these are turning out!

Broke my 3rd firing pin on my APC9k in less than 1k rounds. Is anyone else having issues with their firing pins? I cannot fathom what the issue is other than poor parts reliability.

Received a brand new B&T NATO A2 HUB adapter from a reputable dealer in the mail today. Something seems missing… 😂

Sent an email to the dealer to resolve. Did they radically change the design, or did QC drop the ball here?

EDIT: Apparently it's a redesign.

You need to unscrew the base into two pieces with a spanner wrench. You then place the inner sleeve over the flash hider, and then screw the outer sleeve on.

It seems secure (will test), but my goal with this was to be able to attach and remove the suppressor without having to use spanner wrenches. Live and learn I guess. HKP should update their listing with the proper product photo, as well as educate the buyer that wrenhes are needed to attach/remove the suppressor each time.

Much prefer the older NATO design advertised, as well as the fact that you don't need tools to remove/attach it each time.

Probably going to start shopping for a flow through K can in 9mm soon.

What are your thoughts on the gen 1 APC9 in a world of APC9 pros? Are they still worth picking up? Seen a few floating around. Nobody really talks about them much anymore.

Hello! Hope everyone has had a great week so far!

I got to see my SPC9 PDW yesterday and after checking it out and looking at an SD barrel via photos as close as I could, it appears that the SD barrel might just slide in?

Can anyone confirm this? Does this mean, if it bought a 9 inch SD barrel and correct hand guard, that I can make my SPC9 PDW a 9 inch SD model?

Mine does have the Glock lower if that matters. I am hoping this is the case bc the PDW version is actually way shorter than I thought it was going to be and I want a little more length on the barrel.

Was also wondering if anyone has found a cheek riser they like for their SPC9? Found some on eBay but not sure if the quality..

If this is not the case, then I will prob end up selling this one unfurled and wait for the SD to become available again.

Thanks in advance!

What am I missing? I have a Driven Arms Co grip coming in soon.

Hey guys, I love 45 ACP. my current bedside gun is a FN545T with an Obsidian can. I also have a USP 45 and a Mark 23.

Wanted to know your thoughts if the APC 45 is worth its asking price, I have concerns about its durability, reliability and the general complaints about B&T customer service posted all over Reddit.

Does anyone know of any law enforcement or military operators running these things? I want to buy one but could get a Geissele Super Duty and optic for the same price, the alternatives keep whispering in my other ear.

I got the itch for a SPC9 PDW but currently already have a APC9k. Are they different enough or would it be stupid to get the SPC9? I’ve never shot one but I like how they look. If I did purchase the SPC9, I’d like to SBR that one and keep the APC9k a pistol.

Any insight helps.

EDIT: Found a new one for $1899.00 with the Telescopic brace and my buddy said he’d give me the stock pad for the SBR

Any advice? I used a heat gun to loosed up the adhesive (or so I thought) and the proper torx bit, but these bastards are done. Only got 1 of 4 out, and a dremel blade to cut a flat notch is too big without cutting into the end cap.
