I'm SOOOOO GLAD That there are some solid Canadian gun gurus! There needs to be many more of you up there, keep up the good culture, of knowledge, independence, capability, and freedom, over fear and control and distrust , disguised as safety by the government, my man!
Thanks buddy! Lots of my content applies to gun enthusiasts everywhere, but yes agreed on the need for more Canadians pushing out content. Thank you for your support! Please help spread the word.
Congrats on the great addition to the collection. Btw, I don't mind your longer video's at all. The more info/description the better (imho). Gotta make a video showing the accuracy on the APC 223 and this beaut. Wish you had a long barrelled XCR-M to compare between this rifle and all the other .308 monsters you have.
I do actually have an XCR-M with a 18.6" barrel. It's not the latest generation though, and I believe they were able to further dial in the accuracy in the newest guns. I will have to bug the distributor for a demo gun. Thanks again for your support!
@@armandgun That's right, totally forgot you had one. And no problem brother, keep up the great work. If money is no option, the latest models of the XCR-L and a Bren 2/2s (not the Bren 2 Ms) would be an interesting comparison to the APC .223 in terms of accuracy. Obviously, it's not my money being spent but, if you were to compare those 3 rifles (in accuracy), the XCR-L would have to be configured in a standard or mini sized upper receiver. That way each rifle is similar in size (upper receiver, barrel length, twist rate, etc.). In terms of the B&T APC .308, the latest models of the XCR-M, a Bren 2 BR (if it ever imports in time), and the SCAR 17 would make for a great video. A lot of people are gravitating towards accuracy and reliability info more than ever now. So basically, we just need to get you a new gen XCR-L, a new gen XCR-M, Bren 2/2s, and a SCAR 17. In the U.S., those 4 guns would run ya around $10,000-10,500. Where you are, a lot more lmao.
I'm glad that B&T is a higher end manufacturer that is actively trying to respond to market demands. H&K and FN seem only interested in bringing in pistols into the US and actively try to avoid bringing in rifles. They just sit with their thumbs up their butt until a military contract rolls around. The B&T firearms are one of the few that have genuinely excited me in the last decade. In the US, it is exceedingly difficult to find a dealer that stocks anything from them. Nowadays, it's just the cost of their products that is the primary barrier to entry. Heck, they sell a $400 brass catcher and a $600 stock. As for that folding charging handle, I'm a bit torn. It's convenient (and very cool)until you need to use it in an emergency...then it becomes very inconvenient and uncool. I'm curios what aftermarket parts people will come up with for the apc556. I see you have those rail panels and someone makes a charging handle and ACR adapter. PS how many cups of coffee and booger sugar you have before you do these videos? You talk so fast.
supremely jealous.... In my humble opinion this (or the APC 556) should be the next standard issue weapon for the Swiss Army. Considering it weighs pretty much the same as the Stgw 90, which is pretty much obsolete by now, but packs a much greater punch. I would love to see an accuracy comparison between the APC 308 and the G 28.
It might be a little bit before I can get out and do some accuracy testing, but it is something I will aim to do. Agreed on the APC223. It's a fantastic gun. Currently my favorite sbr.
Who knows what will happen in Switzerland. You're getting the same outside cancerous people immigrating from other countries moving in and destroying it...not unlike the US and people from California, New Jersey, and New York. It's post Cold War. Pretty much every country outside of the US is decreasing their military spending due to relative security. I have a hard time seeing the Swiss spending the money to rearm their military/law enforcement.
Such a sweet gun. Now in Chile we are using the new galil ace .223 (army), but semi-automatic rifles are no allowed for civilians in this country. not even a 10/22 :(
Can't go wrong with an XCR-M! It's still my favorite .308 platform, though this apc308 is giving it a run for the money. If it had the XCR's ergs it might just do it.
Debating on getting the LWRC REPR MKII or this B&T. I held the carbine version of the B&T in a LGS and it was super cool, and so is the REPR. I feel the 18+” barrel is a little unwieldy in comparison. I would like your thoughts on the balance of the B&T. Throw on the Elcan 1.5-6x with vertical grip and let us know! Appreciate the content.
Thanks man. I am planning on putting out the shooting video on Tuesday and will have it outfitted exactly as you requested. I haven't handed the REPR, but I can say that the apc308 rifle with the 18.9" barrel balances great!

Nice. I would love one of those in 6.5cm for some lr comps
I hope B&T will build APC300 SD just like the APC9 SD. Please pass this ideal along and make PRO version 🥰🔫😘🔫. Thanks again you are the best! Happy Holiday 🔫🥰🔫🥰
Just a question from a random plebian - how come the uppers for the 223 and 308 aren't monolithic? Is that to be able to swap stuff out? Aesthetically it's a tiny bit annoying :) There's that thin divide, and in the case of the 223 here, even a slight color tint difference.
Haha, I don't have a tacops just yet. I have a 300blk virtus patrol coming in next week. I will have to but the distributor to send me a tacops. I definitely need to get my hands on one sooner or later.
Disagree. I am quite invested in social media, and can guarantee posting pics and videos with tiny stubby mags in all the guns would not go over as well. Plus smaller mags are not as ergonomic. While they may be limited, full size mags are much easier to handle. Drums aren't, but they are there for aesthetic purposes.
I'll be shooting it tomorrow and will be able to get an idea of what it's like. I have quite a bit of time with an XCR-M, and it has been my favourite for a long time. XCR platform still has the APC beat on ergonomics, but we'll see what this one is like to shoot. I would hazard a guess that it might be more accurate as well, thought I won't be testing accuracy for a little while yet.
I'm so F...ing jealous of you right now. I'm from Romania and live in U.K. and both this places have denied their people any decent gun rights.... I need to drive 300 mi to get to shoot a 9mm pistol.... witch I have to hire and pay for the ammunition about 60 $ for 50 rounds at best. Ohhhhhh.... so sad!
I'm sorry to hear that Alex. Canada has a lot of restrictive firearm laws as well, but we do still have a lot of options available to us. Hopefully the laws will improve over time. The upcoming generation seems to be more open to giving firearms a go. I remain optimistic about it.

I wish Canada had more gun rights. Coming from a Texan
I have to say it’s great to finally find an awesome Canadian gun Channel. Thanks

Awesome to find someone in Manitoba doing content like this.
Watching your videos and hearing about all the laws and regulations in Canada makes me love living in America! Lol Great videos man.
Awesome thanks man!!!!! Greatly appreciated!!!

The finest guns ever... wonderful.
Another cool video. I'm impressed your channel is blowing up, good work!
Thanks buddy! I'm stoked for it. It's definitely motivation to keep producing content for the community.
Great video. I really enjoy the high quality firearms that you feature. You have that lane all to yourself for the most part. Peace
Thank you! Trying to carve out a bit of a niche for my channel. Focusing on higher end tactical guns and gear is my preference.
Amazing piece of kit, looking to grab one myself to go along with their 223 dmr. Thanks, been looking forward to this review for a while.
After watching this I'm going to go yell at myself in the mirror!
Ha
supremely jealous....

If y'all want to get straight to the APC308, fast forward to 4:15 in the video.
I hope B&T starts selling their cans in the USA soon!
Right on!
Desertech had an awesome deal on the mdr for Black Friday. Ordered an fde 308 mdr for 2099.
Wow, that's an awesome price! I need to get one too.
Such a sweet gun. Now in Chile we are using the new galil ace .223 (army), but semi-automatic rifles are no allowed for civilians in this country. not even a 10/22 :(
I'm sorry to hear that Mike. That is really too bad. The Galil Ace looks like a really good firearm though for your military.
Was really looking for one of these in the states but couldn't fine one. Ended up with my XCR M. Happy with XCR but still want some B&T stuff.
Can't go wrong with an XCR-M! It's still my favorite .308 platform, though this apc308 is giving it a run for the money. If it had the XCR's ergs it might just do it.

Awesome Gun, who makes the foregrip you put on the 5.56 version?
That's actually B&T's own grip. It's quite a solid unit.
@@armandgun Looks pretty good quality
I fucking love B&T
I hope B&T will build APC300 SD just like the APC9 SD. Please pass this ideal along and make PRO version 🥰🔫😘🔫. Thanks again you are the best! Happy Holiday 🔫🥰🔫🥰
That would be pretty cool actually. I might just have to ask them about that.

I love you channel bro although I dont think I've ever been more jealous of someone
Sorry Michael, I hope I can make up for that with my content haha.
Patiently waiting for the virtus tacops video.
Haha, I don't have a tacops just yet. I have a 300blk virtus patrol coming in next week. I will have to but the distributor to send me a tacops. I definitely need to get my hands on one sooner or later.
Your friends approve of the special visitor (sig 542) as long as it's not a Robinson arms gun.
Haha I'll have to keep trying to convince you otherwise. Rob Arms makes some great firearms. The Sig 542 is definitely a solid gun.
I'd like to have it!
Man I like that.
Why do you have a “d50” if you can only have 5 round mags?
He always says the big mags are for effect. They look awesome
Michael H that’s a waste of money...
Disagree. I am quite invested in social media, and can guarantee posting pics and videos with tiny stubby mags in all the guns would not go over as well. Plus smaller mags are not as ergonomic. While they may be limited, full size mags are much easier to handle. Drums aren't, but they are there for aesthetic purposes.
A .308 curved magazine 30 rds is available for this gun?
Are both the guns restricted?
The first 2 you see are restricted, the second 2 are NR.
@@armandgun thanks for the reply, I'm glad youtube recommended your channel by far the best Canadian gun channel out there.
At this point I'm just going to say God damn as a comment each video
Haha, I'm hoping it's a positive reaction.
This or XCR-M?
I'll be shooting it tomorrow and will be able to get an idea of what it's like. I have quite a bit of time with an XCR-M, and it has been my favourite for a long time. XCR platform still has the APC beat on ergonomics, but we'll see what this one is like to shoot.

First 🕺🏽
Seconds😎
Cz vs Fn SCAR vs. XCR vs stoner DI-AR?
I'm sad as a US citizen that Canadians have more gun rights than me. But I live in Chicago so I guess I'm screwed, and I can't afford to move
My condolences. I would be afraid to live in Shitcago. No offense.
@@tyjax5119 I live in a middle class mostly polish neighborhood so it's not that bad but it still sucks
Most guns are pretty simple to make full auto especially ARs but 🤫 we won't tell alphabet boys.

Apparently Canadian gun laws are slightly more lax than what I originally thought but almost as nonsensical as the ones in the US 🤔
You are not wrong.
GET A BREN 2 AND DO VIDEO
Working on the appropriate licensing to be able to get one. Currently not legal for civilians in my country.
@@armandgun OH CANADA
I thought they banned stuff like this in commie Canada
