The startup from Minnesota claimed to be offering the world\u2019s first bullpup pistol-to-rifle conversion kit, and I was intrigued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SHOT Show, for those who haven\u2019t been, is filled with products that claim to be innovative but aren\u2019t and products that are technically innovative but mostly a gimmick. After <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/bullpup-style-pistol-to-rifle-conversion-kit-from-meta-tactical-shot-show-2022\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"bullpup-pistol-to-rifle-conversion-meta-tacticals-apex-series-full-review\" title=\"Meta Tactical APEX Review: Glock Bullpup Chassis\">talking with the guys at Meta Tactical<\/a>, it seemed like the APEX-Series chassis occupied the sweet spot every gun company tries to hit: it meets a real need <em>and<\/em> <em>actually works<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I was eager to get my hands on one and take it for a spin, and so far, I\u2019m impressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-how-does-this-thing-work\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Does This Thing Work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The APEX-Series is a chassis system that turns a handgun into a bullpup-style rifle. The kit ships with a 16-inch barrel that fits the make and model of gun the user specifies when ordering. (There might be some unintentional overlap between different models of the handgun, but by and large, the APEX-Series chassis will only work with one make and model of handgun.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To install the pistol into the chassis, users first swap out their factory barrel for the Meta Tactical barrel. The rear of the chassis swings up, the trigger bar pulls out, and the handgun can be inserted into the bullpup chassis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/MT-Step-3-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"2, The World\u2019s First Bullpup Pistol-to-Rifle Conversion Kit: Meta Tactical\u2019s APEX-Series (Full Review)\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/MT-Step-4-1024x689.jpg\" alt=\"2, The World\u2019s First Bullpup Pistol-to-Rifle Conversion Kit: Meta Tactical\u2019s APEX-Series (Full Review)\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/MT-Step-1-1024x709.jpg\" alt=\"2, The World\u2019s First Bullpup Pistol-to-Rifle Conversion Kit: Meta Tactical\u2019s APEX-Series (Full Review)\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Once you get the hang of it, the APEX-Series is easy to assemble. Each barrel is stamped with the model and caliber, so you won\u2019t get them confused.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To operate the system, users charge the firearm with the ambidextrous charging handle and pull the chassis trigger to fire the rifle. The trigger on the chassis is connected to a trigger bar that \u201cpulls\u201d the trigger on the original pistol. Thanks to this design, the trigger doesn\u2019t hinge like a striker-fired handgun. Instead, it moves straight back like a 1911.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The safety selector can be moved between \u201csafe\u201d and \u201cfire,\u201d and the mag can be released using the ambidextrous paddle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I used a Glock 19 for this review but other models of pistols are available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-why-would-i-want-one\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Would I Want One?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pistol chassis are nothing new. Inventors have been affixing stocks to handguns for basically as long as handguns have existed, and the Micro-Roni chassis is incredibly popular today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The benefits of shouldering a pistol are obvious. A stock allows for more precise shots and quicker follow-up shots than a handgun held at arm\u2019s length. Unless your last name is Miculek, you\u2019ll shoot your pistol more quickly and accurately if you can brace it on your shoulder while firing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This meme illustrates the absurdity of this regulation regime better than I can describe it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The problem with a standard pistol-caliber carbine is that it eliminates a pistol\u2019s primary advantage: its compact size. If you want to maintain a 16-inch barrel, the overall length of an AR-type rifle is, well, about the same as an AR-15. Shooting a 9mm from an AR is fun, but ballistically speaking, it can\u2019t compete with a .223 Rem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/MT-Feature-1-1024x655.jpg\" alt=\"2, The World\u2019s First Bullpup Pistol-to-Rifle Conversion Kit: Meta Tactical\u2019s APEX-Series (Full Review)\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/MT-Stock-1024x679.jpg\" alt=\"2, The World\u2019s First Bullpup Pistol-to-Rifle Conversion Kit: Meta Tactical\u2019s APEX-Series (Full Review)\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/MT-Rail-1024x638.jpg\" alt=\"2, The World\u2019s First Bullpup Pistol-to-Rifle Conversion Kit: Meta Tactical\u2019s APEX-Series (Full Review)\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/MT-Grip-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"2, The World\u2019s First Bullpup Pistol-to-Rifle Conversion Kit: Meta Tactical\u2019s APEX-Series (Full Review)\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/MT-Trigger-1024x729.jpg\" alt=\"2, The World\u2019s First Bullpup Pistol-to-Rifle Conversion Kit: Meta Tactical\u2019s APEX-Series (Full Review)\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>The APEX-Series is well built and comes with several useful features.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The bullpup design, furthermore, allows the overall length of the gun to be about as short as a rifle can possibly be fitted with a 16-inch barrel. With the adjustable stock fully collapsed and no muzzle device, the gun measures a scant 22 inches. With the stock extended, it measures 26 inches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-but-how-is-this-better-than-my-pistol\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">But How Is This Better Than My Pistol?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Adding a 16-inch barrel and a stock to a pistol does two things: improves practical accuracy and increases velocity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Practical accuracy is usually considered as opposed to mechanical accuracy. Mechanical accuracy is how accurate a gun is without human inputs. Depending on the barrel and level of wear, your Glock 19 or Smith &amp; Wesson SD9 might be just as mechanically accurate as that same gun in the Meta Tactical chassis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But practical accuracy will almost surely improve. Practical accuracy describes how accurate a gun can be with a human pulling the trigger. Being able to shoulder a gun almost always improves accuracy, as does the ability to install a magnified optic. Pistol red dots are readily available these days, but it\u2019s much more difficult to fit a handgun with a scope. With a full-length Picatinny rail, the APEX-Series is ready for whatever optic or prism sight you want to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th><strong>Ammo<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>Pistol Average Group (in)<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>APEX-Series Average Group (in)<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>Pistol Average Velocity (fps)<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>APEX<\/strong>, <strong>Series Average Velocity (fps)<\/strong><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Hornady American Gunner 124-Grain<\/td><td>3.525<\/td><td>2.675<\/td><td>1175<\/td><td>1365<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Hornady Critical Defense 115-Grain<\/td><td>5.75<\/td><td>3.015<\/td><td>1125<\/td><td>1320<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That\u2019s exactly what I found in the course of my testing. Shooting a Glock 19 in a Meta Tactical stock was always more accurate, whether from sandbags or free hand. You might argue that it isn\u2019t fair to compare a gun with iron sights to a gun with a 5x magnified optic. But that\u2019s sort of the point. The APEX-Series allows users to shoot their handguns with a magnified optic, which will inevitably increase accuracy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/MT-Target-1-1024x734.jpg\" alt=\"2, The World\u2019s First Bullpup Pistol-to-Rifle Conversion Kit: Meta Tactical\u2019s APEX-Series (Full Review)\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/MT-Target-2-1024x752.jpg\" alt=\"2, The World\u2019s First Bullpup Pistol-to-Rifle Conversion Kit: Meta Tactical\u2019s APEX-Series (Full Review)\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>In both images above, the targets on the left were shot with a Glock 19 handgun and the target on the right with the APEX-Series. You can see how the stable platform and optic allowed for more precise, consistent shooting. All shots were taken from 25 yards from sandbags. <\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Velocity also increased by about 200 feet-per-second compared with a standard 4-inch Glock 19 barrel. More speed allows bullets to fly flatter, so users don\u2019t have to compensate quite as much at longer distances. I found that hitting a man-sized target at 100 yards required nothing more than aiming at the \u201cneck\u201d and pulling the trigger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-so-hows-it-shoot\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">So, How\u2019s It Shoot?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The trigger is often the Achilles\u2019 heel of bullpup rifles, and I was especially dubious about this particular bullpup. The trigger mechanism is polymer, and adding all that extra material between my finger and the actual trigger seemed like a recipe for disaster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I was pleasantly surprised. Your experience will depend on the trigger in your handgun, of course. An aftermarket trigger with a clean break will feel better than a factory trigger in the APEX-Series. But I wouldn\u2019t say the APEX system degrades the overall experience too much. The trigger bar sits directly on the trigger, so there isn\u2019t any extra takeup that isn\u2019t already present in the original trigger. The break and reset also feel similar, though those extra moving parts keep the break from feeling quite as crisp as pulling the gun\u2019s trigger directly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/MT-Shooting-3-1024x666.jpg\" alt=\"2, The World\u2019s First Bullpup Pistol-to-Rifle Conversion Kit: Meta Tactical\u2019s APEX-Series (Full Review)\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>This thing is a blast to shoot.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When evaluating the trigger, it\u2019s important to keep the intended application in mind. You won\u2019t be shooting a 9mm at 500 yards. This is a close-quarters firearm, and the trigger is more than adequate for that application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another thing I was pleasantly surprised by? Reliability. In hundreds of rounds of testing, I never experience a malfunction, not even with my janky 115-grain reloads. Your experience might change depending on the handgun you use, but the Glock 19 in the APEX-Series ran like a champ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/MT-Shield-1024x698.jpg\" alt=\"2, The World\u2019s First Bullpup Pistol-to-Rifle Conversion Kit: Meta Tactical\u2019s APEX-Series (Full Review)\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>The gun was perfectly reliable, and lefties will appreciate this useful brass shield.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My final concern is related to repeatability. Because the gun is locked in with a simple latch, I wondered whether point of impact would shift when the gun is removed and re-installed. Fortunately, I didn\u2019t notice any significant shifting. I removed the gun and reinstalled it several times, and my shots landed in the same circle at 25 yards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Overall, shooting a 9mm in this configuration is a real pleasure. The 16-inch barrel reduces the shot report, and recoil is all but non-existent. Muzzle rise is also easy to control, which makes follow-up shots a cinch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-last-shots\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Last Shots<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The APEX-Series fills a real, though admittedly niche, need in the firearms marketplace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pistol-caliber carbines are popular for a reason. They\u2019re easy to shoot, fun at the range, and more effective than their handgun counterparts in a self-defense situation. But with most of them, you\u2019re looking at a significantly longer overall length than a handgun chambered in the same caliber.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The APEX-Series is a quick and relatively inexpensive solution. The 16-inch barrel offers improved ballistics while the bullpup design retains a relatively short overall length. If you have an old Glock 19 laying around, this is a great upgrade. Throw on a magnified optic, and you\u2019re set for some serious fun, not to mention a new and excellent option for home defense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The APEX-Series won\u2019t be for everyone. But for those looking for a unique, useful, not to mention fun, pistol-caliber carbine, it is worth a look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">***Buy and Sell on GunsAmerica!
