SHOT Show 23 – B&T’s APC9 Limited & SPC223

Friday, January 20th, 2023

B&T USA is displaying their APC9 & SPC223 carbines.

The 9mm APC9 features an aluminum lower receiver with flared magwell and Elftman Tactical trigger. The MBT stock folds and offers 3-position comb and length of pull adjustment.

The handguard incorporates MLOK with a full length Picatinny rail at 12 o’clock.

Offered only in SBR configuration, they can be had with 8.9″ or 6.7″ barrel but there are only 500 of each available.

Chambered in .223, the SPC223 will not be available until late this year. It’s B&T’s take on a black rifle with a hydraulic buffer system and is full ambidextrous. The prototype you see here is a DI gun with a 10-position adjustable gas block, optimized for suppression, but the production model will likely be piston driven.

Coming in 11.5″ and 16″ barrel length. There will also be a .300 BLK model with a shorter barrel.

Mounted to this SPC223 is the MARS suppressor, a super lightweight can at 14 oz which was designed for a USMC requirement.

SHOT Show 23 – Crye Precision R-Series

Thursday, January 19th, 2023

Although the R-Series was soft launched during last year’s SOFIC, it’s big debut is at this year’s SHOT Show.

Using the new JPC-R as its core, the R-Series is a modular and scalable system which is highly configurable. They’ve also worked to balance weight and durability, particularly for the loads carried by the SOF personnel they worked with the develop the system. The other thing the R-Series does is accommodate a wide variety of plates and sizes with one vest.

Another feature of the JPC-R is that the front panel remains a standard size and the rear panel comes in different sizing options to accommodate the wearer’s girth.

This new front panel standardizes the amount of load carriage real estate across your force, regardless of individual stature. This means that smaller troops will be able to carry the same gear as those with wider chests.

Seen above from left to right are the Assault, Jump, and Recce configurations. Below are the various components used to configure different loads.
