Yep, me too. One article I read said it will likely be appropriately $100.00 higher than their current 9mm APC bring it into the mid 2k range, so darn nice, gosh!

If you are an AR fan, you might want to hold on to the money. I was at the San Antonio gunshow this weekend and ran across a guy that makes AR parts. As we were chatting the subject came up about the various chamberings of the AR platform including the 9mm that uses the Glock mags. I said "Too bad there isn't a 10mm AR cause that would put some power behind the gun". He told me they are working on just that, an AR upper that takes Glock mags in 10mm auto. I gave him my phone number and told him to call me when they get one together and have it for sale. I'm a player for one of those. Imagine an AR flattop with a 15" barrel and a reflex sight. Make a dandy truck gun.

Am I the only one who thinks a forward mag well for any pistol caliber is a design flaw?

(Unless you're adamant on AR-type grip compatibility, I suppose.)

Other than that, pretty cool. I'm never sad to see more best mm around.

I've had this 10mm AR for around 3 years now. It's a DI upper and not a blowback. Admittedly it took some tuning to get it to run right but it works great now.

These are really old pics. I've made some changes and need to update pics.

While I'm new to the forum, I'm not to 10mm (x3) or B&T (x5) so I can speak to APC10 Pro that I've had for ~2 months now.  Waiting to decide on which red dot to mount.

I'm still waiting to luck upon the HK 10mm subgun but the B&T has not disappointed me!  Mine is somewhat picky on SD ammunition but the B&T devours every military ball round I've stuffed into a magazine.  Recoil is a little more than the 9mm of course, but still less than I expected.  I haven't made up my mind if I'll SBR this or leave as pistol with brace.

Hoping to find others in this forum that are ahead of me in regards to the APC10 Pro so I can get it completed by end of summer.

As much as i'd like to have one of these, what caught my eye in these pics is the QD Acro mount. Anyone have experience with one of these? I can see a definite advantage to popping off a failed/damaged red dot and going to backup sights.

I have one on my GHM45 with no issues so far but my round count is low at this point (~1,000).  I'm considering additional setups for my APC9 Pro and APC10.

Thanks, that's the kind of info I was looking for.

Well, the more I shoot this the more I enjoy it.  Made the decision and started ordering parts to form 1 it.  Likely to be another Nano for the red dot, as it appears I've dodged the battery issue that is (was?) plaguing early models.  I'm getting close to the point of needing glasses and it shows at medium distances...LOL

The only negative so far, it is wickedly temperamental with SD ammo yielding high percentage of FTF.  Having said that, it doesn't miss a beat with any solid nose.  Buddies were supplying various brands/weights of ball ammo and it was throwing empty brass as quick as the finger would move.

Decided I'm going to SBR the APC10 Pro, with the turn-around times for e-forms being so short.
