Our Assessment: The B&T APC556 Sport is a versatile, high-performance semi-automatic rifle engineered for civilian sport shooting, with design roots in military and law enforcement-grade firearms. Built with a 16.5-inch barrel and an A2-style flash hider, it combines durability with effective muzzle management. The rifle operates on a short-stroke gas piston system, known for its reliability and ability to run cleaner than direct impingement systems, making it suitable for high-round-count sessions without compromising function. The rifle also features a two position gas block for running suppressed or unsuppressed.
Equipped with an ELF flat-faced, single-stage trigger, the APC556 Sport offers a crisp and precise trigger pull, enhancing control and accuracy. The rifle’s fully ambidextrous controls—including the safety selector, magazine release, and bolt catch—make it user-friendly for both right- and left-handed shooters, which is ideal for dynamic shooting positions.
One of the highlights of the APC556 Sport is its folding and collapsible stock, adding to its versatility and portability. This stock configuration allows the rifle to be compactly stored and easily maneuvered in tight spaces while still providing a solid, adjustable shoulder support for stable shooting. Altogether, these features make the B&T APC556 Sport a premium option for shooters looking for a tactical-style rifle with precision engineering and high adaptability.
