Brazil: the São Paulo Civilian Police have purchased 700 9mm APC9-G PRO new submachine guns made by Swiss company B&T.

In its announcement, B&T says that the new submachine guns are equipped with MBT folding and telescoping stocks, Glock-compatible lower receivers, RQD suppressors, and Aimpoint ACRO P2 optics on B&T QD mounts.

This contract marks our company’s second contract for US-produced APC submachine gun models for the professionals of São Paulo, Brazil — the first being APC40 models for the country’s Military Police.
