I was under the impression that the contract went with the G model lower. I managed to stumble on a fde version at the time of release. It is a machinists dream, fantastically well made and has been boringly reliable with glock mags. The toughest thing to find was that $750 telescopic brace but is a must if your gonna own an apc9k pro. Great video!

B+T offered the Glock lower, but the Army went with the Euro SMG mag one. I'm not entirely sure why? but I am sure there were reasons....probably not good reasons, but reasons nevertheless lol.

A 10.25 inch 223 shot inside a house will ring your head for days. My 16 inch Lwrc A5 makes people next to me cry at the range. I personally would not want a 223 shorter than 11.3. Just like I would not want a 300 blk with anything shorter than 7 inch with a preferred 9 inch barrel.

I agree with you on the STGW 07 limited edition armee kits. Those were nice. Unfortunately, a bit too much. Would take a year to save up for one of those deployment kits. But SiG was awesome to do those. I would say the only things that your B&T Commemorative edition APC9K kit were missing would be a special Swiss Army Knife with a B&T logo and tools/torx wrenches to adjust the optics/sights and picatinny rails. That would be a "neat" touch lol

@misha5670 3 жыл бұрын

To be fair, I had 2 years to save up for the STGW07 kit....and it still hurt....a lot hehe. Still i passed up on those Army serial 751 SAPRs and didn't want to miss out for a second time.

I agree the three-lug is less than ideal and the MP5 3-Navy barrels are really the right way to do it. I can just imagine the whole suppressor and the 3-lug adapter spinning off in hard use. Thread Locker won't work because of the heat. Hopefully the rails are rounded off, as they are in the prefect "Cheese Grater" position to draw blood. The iron sights are likely going to be removed by the Operators and the gun would be better served by back-up sites integrated to the rail, lighter and out of the way. Why the Army chose to use the AimPoint Nano is beyond me, as a RMR on a riser, that's already issued would have been better, especially in the battery life department. I'm sure this going to be awesome, as its B&T. My real question is "Why" is the Army buying this and for what role. Why not just issue H&K MP7's ??? Thanks for the review, looking forward to Part 2.

Is it only the k that is seeing military service in the US? Id love to have one of the standard versions because the scorpion evo micro already fills that role for me, so the longer barrel one would be a better fit for my situation. I also prefer military/service guns so I'm just curious

@misha5670 3 жыл бұрын

Yes, at least as of right now. One of the requirements of the SCW Program was a barrel 5.5" or less.

@bryy2053 3 жыл бұрын

Man it seems like they hit a homerun with this one. Im curious to know how you think the brace feels with the bars. I opted for the scorpion evo with the SB brace instead of the retractable pdw brace because I was concerned about the bars being "AK underfolder" esk. The B&T looks like it has to be more comfortable than that
