I'm in the market for my first B&T, either an APC9 or SPC9. I understand they're in the process of setting up a new headquarters in the US. Do you think the new operation will have higher build quality and/or higher prices? Looking to learn about any pros and cons.

Also sorry if this has been asked a million times

So I’ve owned a MP5 before and recently I’ve found out about the APC series of firearms. So what’s the best one to get? Suppressed, SBR’d, etc etc

I have the B&T PrintX MP5SD suppressor that is said to also work for the Gen1 APC9-SD. However, I cannot find a Gen1 SD for sale anywhere and so I'm curious about the Pro.

Does the MP5SD PrintX suppressor not work at all on the APC9-SD Pro? I feel like I read somewhere that the thread pitch was different but cannot find where I read that. Additionally, if it is not compatible, how difficult is it to find a Gen1 APC9-SD?

I’m in the market for a pcc and was recently sold on B&T after trying out a friend’s SPC9.

Given the recent drama between B&T AG and B&T USA, which I’m not especially well-versed in, would it be better to place a backorder for APC9 or SPC9 with a shop that offers them or would you recommend waiting until things get sorted out?

I am on the hunt for an APC300 or APC223 and know the gen 1’s have the non-changeable grip module. That’s the biggest way to tell generation as far as I know but the newer generations also have the foldable charging handle. If one has the changeable grip but non folding charging handle is that still a gen 1 upper gun or what would that be? Would that be a reciprocating charging handle or not?

Broke my 3rd firing pin on my APC9k in less than 1k rounds. Is anyone else having issues with their firing pins? I cannot fathom what the issue is other than poor parts reliability.

What are your thoughts on the gen 1 APC9 in a world of APC9 pros? Are they still worth picking up? Seen a few floating around. Nobody really talks about them much anymore.

I got the itch for a SPC9 PDW but currently already have a APC9k. Are they different enough or would it be stupid to get the SPC9? I’ve never shot one but I like how they look. If I did purchase the SPC9, I’d like to SBR that one and keep the APC9k a pistol.

Any insight helps.

EDIT: Found a new one for $1899.00 with the Telescopic brace and my buddy said he’d give me the stock pad for the SBR
