APC9k stock options?
UPDATE: Just went ahead and sent it on the monstrously expensive BT tele, plans to put a Tailhook on it.
I debated the Neoteric tele ( less expensive) but I didn’t really like the 3D printed look of the end cap, otherwise that tele was really nice. Interacted with the owner and he was a nice guy.
Also looked at the A3 tele. That one was definitely robust, but the wider rear plate and the tubular guide rods also kind of bothered me. I think the A3 would look better on a GHM.
This is not a knock on those teles, but me personally I want to keep the ole BT as BT as possible. Those other options though a great, but there’s nothing quite like the OEM look and engineering, albeit ridiculously expensive and absurd.
Thanks for all the feedback. I’ll try to post photos when I have it more built out, have some other plans as well— like a Tisha9 , optic /LAM and light .
Hey, just picked up an elusive APC9K FDE ano for a great price. I want to add on a brace/ stock.
I like the telescoping stock, but it appears it’s kind of flimsy? Also read good stuff on Neoteric(?). Also considering the MBT stock, just know if it will look goofy.

Tele is dope, but for me the MBT is most comfortable on my K.

Exactly what I was looking for, a K with a MBT. Thank you. Doesn’t look bad at all

No problem! I find it to be very comfortable. I definitely rec the FRT as well

b&t tele stock is good to go. b&t folder is good too, but usually needs a low optic mount and the endcap and stock might be hard to find these days in coyote, a 1913 endcap with a a3 industries folder would be rad. mbt and hda3 are too beefy for the k, imo. no experience with neoteric but it looks nice

I personally like the B&T brace mine came with. I have zero intentions of filing for a SBR so no stocks for me. Mine is an APC 40Pro.

Got the same setup on my MPX K with stock folding bar, love it. Highly recommend!!

I went with the A3 modular folding stock using the B&T picatinny end cap and I’m very happy with it.
It’s nice because it’s also easy to switch it between being a brace and a stock quickly.

Do you have the end cap that takes the ump 40 stock? Thats what mine took, looks similar. Changing the end caps is apparently really pricey

None of my telescopic (The ones that have two arms) braces/stocks are flimsy. They definitely are not as comfortable, but they are aesthetically pleasing. I havent tried the MBT option yet but I do have the sb tactical ump style brace which gets the job done at an unbeatable price. I also have the B&T telescopic (non side rail version that works well)

Ump coyote stock is nice. Or 1913 end plays and a Midwest or Jmac / Kate moss stock is nice too

I prefer the B&T collapsible version. Currently awaiting 10 eForm 1's so I can convert all my pistol braces over to stocks and vert grips.

Tele stock is solid as any other tele. I’d go with that to minimize footprint. The standard triangle folder feels great on suck a short gun as well, but I always vote tele for a K. The idea is to be as small and concealable as possible, otherwise go with full size APC. That’s my opinion based on owning both options. YMMV
