Our Assessment: The B&T APC308 Pistol is a high-quality, Swiss-engineered large-format AR18-style pistol chambered in .308 Winchester. It features a 14.5-inch barrel, which offers a balance between compactness and ballistic performance, making it suitable for a variety of roles, from tactical applications to precision shooting. The side-charging upper provides a reversible reciprocating charging handle, allowing for smoother manual operation while keeping the shooter’s sight picture undisturbed. Unlike traditional AR-10 platforms, the APC308 is designed with B&T’s monolithic upper, ensuring enhanced rigidity and accuracy. The upper also features a two position gas block designed for use suppressed or unsuppressed.
The lower receiver is fully ambidextrous, featuring mirrored controls for the safety selector, bolt catch, and magazine release, making it user-friendly for both left- and right-handed shooters. It is designed to accept AR-10 pattern magazines, providing broad compatibility with existing .308 magazine options. The APC308 is well-regarded for its exceptional build quality, smooth recoil impulse, and reliability, characteristics that define B&T firearms.
