Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the B&T TP9-US 'SBR ready'?

The TP9-US features a receiver with a pre-drilled mounting hole designed to accept a factory vertical foregrip. This allows the firearm to be configured to resemble the original submachine gun once it is legally registered as an SBR (Short-Barreled Rifle) or AOW (Any Other Weapon) with the ATF.

What are the key technical improvements in the new B&T TP9-US?

The new model boasts a redesigned ambidextrous selector lever safety, a larger T-handle charging handle for improved grip, and a silver-colored bolt. Receiver markings have also been relocated to accommodate NFA engravings.

How does the B&T TP9-US handle suppressed shooting?

When suppressed with 147gr subsonic ammunition, the TP9-US exhibits significantly less gas blowback compared to a suppressed AR-15 platform, making for a more pleasant shooting experience.

What is the expected price and what accessories come with the B&T TP9-US?

The B&T TP9-US has an expected retail price around $1,850. The package typically includes a hard case, sling, manual, one 30-round magazine, and a cleaning kit.
