B&T’s line of APC (Advanced Police Carbine) firearms was created to meet the demands of military and law enforcement professionals around the world and have been optimized for accuracy reliability and ease of use. Each APC unit is exceptionally well-machined and is manufactured with the Swiss-made precision that B&T is known for. This is particularly evident in the hydraulic shock-absorbing buffer which greatly mitigates recoil and enhances overall accuracy as well as a cold-hammer forged barrel with a remarkably long service life. The result is a weapon that is controllable on rapid fire accurate and comfortable to shoot. In addition many of the APC’s controls are reminiscent of the AR-15 platform such as the ambidextrous safety selector the trigger assembly and its ability to accept AR-type magazines. These similarities make for a better shooting experience for someone already acquainted with the AR-15.
