It is a 9mm/40/45 brace and buffer. B&T assembled it with a 223/300 right bar, instead of the correct 9/40/45 bar. Different models use different parts and someone at the factory grabbed the wrong part.

I just purchased an APC9K Pro pistol and had a question about the serial # for folks who have gone through the Form 1 process with a B&T firearm.
Is the serial "US 19-30xxx" or just "19-30xxx"? I have never seen a space in a serial # in any of my other firearms, so just wanted to make sure before I fill out the Form 1. |

I've got a question about using glock mags versus B&T mags with the APC9. The APC9 has two feed ramps just behind and below the barrel. I assume they're for when the B&T double feed mag feeds from the left and right sides. Now the glock mags...they always feed from the middle, so that would be "between" the 2 feed ramps in the gun. I seems like this could cause feeding issues, at least with hollow point ammo. Can someone that uses the glock mag lower comment on this? Any feeding problems with the glock lower and hollow points?

People have reported increased relibility using the Glock lower and magazines particularly GHM9 owners. Using the Glock magazines bypasses the feed ramps. My GHM9 Gen. 2 consistently FTF hollow point and flat nose ammunition until I got the Glock lower.

My GHM9 Gen. 2 consistently FTF hollow point and flat nose ammunition until I got the Glock lower. I’ve shot 200 GDHPs and over 1,000 147gr Lawmen. Nearly 100% suppressed without a single hiccup. Glock mag lowers only make sense if you’re sitting on a pile of Glock mags. I like the double feed aspect of the factory mags, and from an aesthetic standpoint, the Glock mag angle looks ugly.

I'm not a fan of the aesthetics of the Glock lower and mag either. My APC9 Pro has definitely been more reliable than my GHM9. You hardly hear about APC9s having feeding issues compared to the GHM9.

@45pulse, what’s wrong with your APC9? Issues with feeding which I felt were magazine related due to always having to tap the magazine on the back spine as I was loading it (this helped the feeding problems but was still unreliable). Magazines would eject while shooting (very prevalent while shooting suppressed) ...I was sent a replacement magazine catch which did nothing to fix issue. Firearm was then sent back to b&t. When returned after several months and I attempted to function test I had numerous ftf and fte. I immediately contacted customer service... which advised they did not test the firearm with the magazines I supplied with the weapon but would send 3 more with the directive to test the “new” magazines as they felt they would resolve the issues. When I received the new mags, I attempted to function test again but was unable to even get through more than 4-5 shots without the same malfunctions. As I placed the last mag in the weapon and started shooting I had a failure to reset with the trigger, I re racked then had a double fire. At that point I cleared the apc and put it in the bag then immediately contacted customer service again. The apc was sent back to b&t two days later by a next day air label. I contacted b&t a couple days later and was advised they replaced some parts in the lower...I did voice my concerns that I felt a glock lower would fix the magazine issues but they are confident it is now fixed. I obviously have zero faith in b&t magazines at this point and im not sure what I will be receiving tomorrow but I will follow up the thread. I dont want this to come off as a rant as they have been in contact in regards to customer service which is more than I can say for other companies. |

The BATF agent was nice enough to let me resubmit quickly and approved it pretty fast. I’m guess I wasn’t the first person to make that mistake with this pistol. |

Wanted a APC9 but wasn't really planning on getting one. Wanted a 9mm backpack gun for a while that I could set up for night vision hikes and was going to get a scorpion, this was on the wall at a LGS and already had a brace on it so i figured why not.. Might get SBR'd but the brace is pretty good for this thing. Super fun to shoot and put a few hundred through it the first night. Now to get surefire to send my can over after the shut down. Was gonna use the aimpoint TL on the b&t mount but the t2 on the larue mount is easier for night vision.
