For those of you with factory SBR's or those that have SBR'd a pistol APC9/45, which stock do you prefer? The collapsible looks like the ticket but at $600+ it's a steep entry fee. Is the side folder the perfect length or do you find it too short or too long? I am considering buy a factory SBR with the collapsible but I want to be sure that stock isn't a turd first. Also, is the safety selector compatible with AR safety levers? I can't stand where the thing hits the webbing on my right hand, super painful over time. I'd like to run a short arm on that side. My friend has the telescoping stoke and loves it but the folder feels and looks better to me. I am glad I got to try one before I bought it. I like the Magpul and TangoDown vfg's. Brownells or gun broker for magazines. |

What about a trip-lug to threaded adapter like 1/2-28, is anyone making one or have one in the works? I'd much rather buy an adapter than the $200 Triad piston for my AAC TiRant Short can I plan to run on this gun. It would make my life easier to keep the 1/2-28 piston on the can full-time so that I can go back and forth between the APC9 and my 9mm threaded handguns versus removing one piston in favor for the other when changing platforms. That said, there aren't many Triad pistons out there for sale, so I don't want to hesitate and miss out on buying one and end up forced into purchasing a new 9mm can strictly for the APC9.

This has come up from time to time and the response is usually that a 3 lug female to 1/2"x28 adapter would not be rigid enough and could lead to possible baffle strikes.

Then I'll buy the Triad adapter and be done with it. Lastly, for those who are on a Form 1 with their pistol, where have or where do you all plan to engrave the receiver? I am considering a Form 4 factory SBR simply to avoid having to engrave my receiver. |

Group buy bottle openers??
I was wondering if the pic rail sling mount point came with the bit of cord that mine has from the factory? I like that its rigid enough to stay open and not sure how Id duplicate it. |

Absolutely ZERO wobble / slop when locked down. I ca't wait till I get mine out of jail!

From what my dealer told me, I have a better chance of going to the B&T storefront in Thun and buy the accessories in person then trying to order direct. LETS START A GROUP BY FOR THE BOTTLE OPENERS. Their shipping policy is clear: no USA. Why aren't there any dealers, or B&T USA if they can return a call, putting in special orders every quarter? Now that everyone knows about B&T there is a market for special orders, parts, merch. I'm willing to be Paying $300+ for a fancy laptopbag......just ship it to me. |

What kind of light/switch combos are you all running on your B&T guns?
Also, can anyone give me a perspective on the quality/tone differences between a Rugged Obsidian and a B&T suppressor? I currently own the Obsidian and love it, but I am open to the idea of getting a B&T suppressor dedicated to the APC if it is exceptional. Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By FADALdude:

I have no idea if I had any effect in it, but a few months ago I inquired about the 12 and 17 round apc45 mags and they(hkparts and dt) happily responded that they were able to import them. They showed up in stock on websites a few weeks later. (It's probably wishful thinking to believe I caused anything, but who knows). I've previously called a B&T distributor before about importing parts. Everything seems to be fair game for importation, EXCEPT there are apparently specific bipods/parts that other US companies have patent trolled B&T out of obtaining. I can't recall the exact bipod, but I was told there was a specific one that they can't import due to a conflicting patent with a US company (who isn't even producing anything while owning the patent). |
