\"B&T
B&T 10mm in all its glory.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

B&T has just released the APC10, a version of their extremely popular submachine gun in my personal favorite, 10mm. 10mm, in my eyes, is the absolutely perfect caliber for such a gun, but more on that later. Probably the biggest question we are all asking is, who is B&T, and how did they manage to win an Army PDW contract? Which is a question I asked myself. This company seemed to come out of nowhere, and DOD contracts are notoriously tough competition. How, exactly, did a company that is largely unknown in the US pull it off?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"B&T
Included other mans opinion<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Well, B&T isn\u2019t exactly new. Originally known as Br\u00fcgger & Thomet AG, the company was established in 1991. Karl Br\u00fcgger and Heinrich Thomet founded the company to produce suppressors for the domestic Swiss market. And we can all be jealous at this foundation, as gun shops in Switzerland will think you rather rude if you don\u2019t buy a can to go on your gun. At some point later, Thomet sold his shares to Br\u00fcgger, and the company was renamed B&T AG in 2011.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"B&T

B&T is something of a powerhouse in Europe, not only in manufacturing but in distribution. Their trading division represents companies such as Aimpoint and H&K in the law enforcement and military markets, as well as import and export of ammunition and small arms worldwide. That sounds very\u2026 Swiss. The manufacturing division is a major supplier of small parts to other gun makers and started producing its own line of complete weapons in 2004. After a few designs running the gambit from a revised Steyr TMP to a 338 Lapua sniper rifle, they released the original APC9 submachine gun in 2011.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"B&T

So when the Army went looking for a new Personal Defensive Weapon in 2019, B&T was ready to play. They entered the newly crafted APC9 Pro model and ran the table against players such as SIG, H&K, Noveske, and Colt. That is an impressive field to walk away from victorious. A civilian legal semi-auto version of the APC9 Pro was on the market a few months later. And not a company to rest on their laurels, B&T followed up this year with an APC45 Pro and APC10 Pro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"B&T

How do they compare to the original APC9? I have no idea. The APC9 might\u2019ve been around for a while, but it was in small numbers. Like many of you, I had never heard of B&T before the Army contract. So we will be judging this gun on its merits as a stand-alone item, not as an upgrade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"B&T
Integral sling points<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Out of the box, the APC10 Pro is an impressive piece of equipment. It ships in a James Bond case, worthy of the price tag. It includes a cleaning kit in a real zipper case, not a plastic rod jammed in a Ziploc bag. Instruction book and iron sights are in the case, along with a high-quality single point sling. Our test model came not only with a pre-installed Tail Hook \u201cbrace\u201d, but a spare rear plate if you want to just run in short configuration. The initial look of the gun is something high quality and Swiss, about as apt a description as a gun can get.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"B&T
Included single point sling<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Picking up the B&T, you first notice the heft. This is not a light weight princess, for certain. While on the chunkier side, all the mass is centered, which offers good balance. It is a unique feel in sub guns, and not one I dislike. There is a reason for this, which a quick break down shows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"B&T
Lower receiver<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The short 8-inch barrel doesn\u2019t have a lot of front weight, nor does the polymer receiver. Our version featured a skeletonized telescoping stock, which might as well weigh nothing. So where is the meat? A quick break down of the gun shows a monstrous bolt, not uncommon in a straight blowback design. Nor would we really expect anything less for the Prophet Jeff Cooper’s own round, Mr. 10mm. Which brings up an immediate question of, how is that reciprocating mass going to feel when we shoot this? And fortunately, B&T has a solution for that too. The APC10 features a hydraulic buffer in the back, to cut that felt recoil down to size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"B&T

Then we can take a look at the overall design, which is feature rich. New for this model is the aforementioned Tail Hook telescoping stock, which I have no problem calling best in class. It is pure grip and rip, with no button pressing necessary to deploy it. This is going to make it faster out of a bag or other concealment device, which matters in a defensive gun. The tail hook style end piece is solid aluminum, none of the weird flex of a rubber forearm brace. If you were to accidentally put this in your shoulder, in Minecraft, it would feel exactly like an SBR stock. I hear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"B&T
Upper receiver <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The controls are ambi everything, with excellent design. The safety is big enough to use, but not so big as to be in the way. The magazine release is arguably better for righties than lefties, but it is at least present on both sides. And the bolt lock is the same for either hand. It is placed in a spot easy to hit with your trigger finger or support side thumb, shooters preference. And yes, the B&T locks back when empty. The trigger isn\u2019t as crisp as say, an F class rifle. But it is remarkably light and good for a sub-gun, blowing away any other factory option I have seen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"B&T
Monstrous bolt<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The APC 10 feeds from Glock 10mm magazines, which is both a blessing and a curse in this caliber. Glock magazines are excellent and ubiquitous, something I think we can all agree on. Rarely these days does a PCC or sub-gun even exist with an optional Glock feed lower. The only downside in 10mm (or 45 APC)  is that Glock doesn\u2019t make an extended factory magazine. And while Glock factory magazines are notoriously reliable, the same cannot be said for the aftermarket options. My gun came with a Glock 15 rounder, which is less than what most of us want in a sub-gun. Especially compared to 33 rounds in 9mm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"B&T
Bolt top view<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

So I reached out to our friends at GunMagWarehouse<\/a> for an aftermarket solution. They had on hand SGM brand 30 round magazines, a product I have actually had trouble with in the past in 45 ACP. I couldn\u2019t really fault the B&T if it wouldn\u2019t feed off a non recommended magazine, but I really wanted to try it with a larger capacity. And a bit of research on the internet revealed a common fix. SGM magazines tend to come with VERY strong springs from the factory. The common wisdom is to half load them for a day or so, and then they work fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"B&T
Hornady Custom and Glock mags<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

With some trepidation, I shoved them full of Hornady Custom 10mm, and let them sit. And to my extreme joy, they ran like a sewing machine on game day. This offers a ready solution to the problem, at the price of $19.99. I also have it on pretty good authority that another big stick 10mm solution will be on shelves in the next few months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"B&T
Hydraulic buffer with brace attached<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It did hurt my heart a little bit to shoot a couple of hundred rounds of Hornady Custom 10mm<\/a> at paper and steel, but it was what Hornady had available. It was also important that we shoot full power 10mm for this review, to see how the B&T handled it. The Custom XTP is an absolutely excellent 10mm load, with accuracy and performance to spare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"B&T
Trijicon MRO, an excellent optics choice.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

How did the APC10 run? As expected for a price tag of $2599. As in, smooth as butter and without a hiccup. The hydraulic buffer system really does tame the bolt mass, which makes for quick hits on target. The caliber is easily handled enough for any shooter, noob or small of stature. And with how quick it can chuck 10mm downrange, that makes for an \u201cany\u201d problem solver. The B&T is both fun and practical, especially in Saint Cooper’s own caliber. If you are looking for a personal defensive solution that packs a big punch, this one is an absolute winner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
