I know this is a common problem, but has anyone figured out a way to mitigate this? Just frustrating to see on an expensive tool, even if it’s cosmetic.

I purchased my APC9k with a telescoping brace [BT-20522]. I wanted to convert the brace to a stock so I purchased the APC9 brace-to-stock conversion that B&T sells [BT-20545]. While installing it I notice that it doesn't telescope closed more than halfway because the buttpad is too narrow causing the telescoping arms to splay outward.

My APC9k brace width is 53.5mm

The APC9 stock buttpad I ordered is 51mm.

Just for fun I measured my GHM45 stock width at 50mm

So the stock that I ordered that THEY make FOR THIS EXACT SITUATION doesn't work.

After giving all this info to B&T customer service, CS tells me

"You need to purchase BT-20394 [The entire $650 stock assembly]." No rectification, no helpful ideas as to why their product doesn't work; just closing my support ticket and telling me to pay 700 dollars more after tax because their $150 stock kit didn't work.

Taking the baby acog off and replacing with an aimpoint t2 so I can cowitness with factory irons. What’s the recommended height of optic mount? I’ve looked into 1.42” and 1.57” and wanting absolute.

I'm new to this group .. but love my APC9 Pro and recently received and installed a Rarebreed AP9 FRT-AP3. I used their installation vid for a similar B&T setup. It went well and easy enough. However the Selector orientation might be wrong. When testing function (dry fire not shooting) the selector won't go into Safe when trigger is fired, only when cocked... this I know is correct now, thanks.. Also, the selector moves past the FRT position as well, which concerns me. Almost like a 4 pos safety. Did I install the selector in the wrong orientation 🤔 Appreciate the help! Previously I had installed a set of HB Industries reduced weight selector springs and right-side selector delete kit on this one so I'm not sure if that's causing the issues or I did something incorrect?

So sweet

I have had issues some pic rail accessories won't fit on that damn B&T rail and I don't want to have to mess around to make it fit.

Picture for attention, if I want to mount a light as close to the rail as possible Mlok stuff what the best option? Fully understand I’ll need shorter Mlok screws. Of course looking for pictures or suggestions or any advice for an APC9SD

Hello everyone. I got a telescoping stock from a site called Neotaric arms. I got it for my APC9 and this is a quality stock for half the cost. I have 2 B&T telescoping stock for the spc9&sp5k. Those stocks have wiggle in the rails. This Neotaric stock has no wiggle and you get an option to have a buffer tube on the back of the buttons to mount your buttons of choice. I like it alot

Buttons….. I meant buttpad

Can anyone help id this offset light mount with integrated button?

Had the chance to shoot a dealer sample APC9SD next to my FRT'd APC9SD. If they aren't the same they are damn close! And for science... Dealer sample was a full sized can, Aimpoint T1, and a folding stock. FRT'd version was the compact can, Trijicon MRO HD, and a tele stock.

Are new production models still being made? Maybe some of you here know way more than I do, but I’m very confused if B&T USA will be making them going forward, or what the new B&T Swiss US outfit will be doing - Why do we have two??

Would love to get a APC9SD but concerned about warranty and such going forward. I would also love to put an FRT in it but see on here some new bolts (posted yesterday) have modifications to prevent FRT?

At the same time, I see FRT from the factory SPC9 and GHMs

So confused

Want to figure out if this bolt is new or old style. My understanding is old style works with RB drop-in FRT, new style does not. This APC9K begins with a “US 24-..” serial number. I don’t see serial markings on the bolt. This was purchased from Axe, this year. Much appreciated 🙏

Just thought I would put this here because I looked around and could not find any numbers for Federal 147gr HST in the APC9 Pro. I put some through my APC9 Pro the other day over the chrono. Got 1,035fps average for the box. Mid 70s temperature. Hopefully this helps others in the future. Sounded great with the Omega 9k.

Maybe one of y’all can help, new to B&T and rifles/pccs in general. Always been more of a pistol/shotgun person

Took my lower off to remove the factory button, and got to playing around and saw this on the trigger

Without dissembling the actual trigger, I don’t see anything else that appears to have rust

Should I do anything about this or let it go?

I got this as a gift years ago, it’s been stored climate controlled its entire life

Thanks for the help all

Which do you prefer and why?

So like an ass I assumed that since both the cloak and RB triggers work on the Apc 9/45 with no problem the bolt dimensions of the 10 should be the same.

They aren’t.

I’m wondering if anyone knows if this is the 25/26 year change issue or if the 10mm doesn’t work across the board.

So PLEASE correct me if I’m wrong or update my knowledge.
We have:
Full auto bolt
Semi auto bolt pre 2025(or is it 2026?)
Semi auto bolt post 2025(no serial engraving?)

And the full auto bolt is only available with permits/licnseing/oapperwork/blah blah is the states.
And the new 2026 bolt no serial engraving isn’t compatible with ANY frt on the market today(10-26) except the EVT conversion.

All correct info or no?
