| She’s a beauty for sure. I love my HK SP5 and SP5k, but in my heart of hearts I actually think my APC9 is a better gun. I love them all equally in their own way, but the B&T guns really are special.
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” |

| I love these B&T's. Too bad they are so hard to get generally, and of course expensive. But save your pennies and get the B&T telescoping brace and the APC is as perfect as you can get in this type of firearm.

| Interesting comment. I have quite a few of these apc’s and had no issues in many rounds. What problems might there be?

| There are aftermarket charging (for sure) and safety levers I think but I have no idea if they fix what bothers you personally as I’m a righty and all is fine. The apc mags have not given me any trouble but what is great about the gun is can run Glock or Sig so that’s mostly what I do. Fully agree the aftermarket is nothing like cz or ar9 but the gun itself is like a different category from the get go. If it has some deficiencies that matter to you then it’s not the best option. But as I said I have run a lot of rounds and compared to the zillion other things I own I like it the best.

You might also try Franklins southwest of Nashville. |

| If you mean local purchase I have no idea. I have bought all of mine from Tar Heel State firearms and europtic. Both highly recommended. THSF is extra great as they will engrave it for you.

buddy of mine had problems with his 9mm suppressor. Also there are a few APC-556 that have reliability issues. The magazines of my TP9 break easy. So far the costumer service is great, they replace the broken ones no questions asked. But it's still annoying.

| Would be interesting to know where and how you are breaking these mags?

| The one, I accidently dropped on a concrete floor. Floorplate broke. On others (not mine), the feed lips wore out when using a APC9-SD.
