The US Army has finished arming soldiers with 315 9×19-millimeter APC9K submachine guns referred to as sub-compact weapons.
The delivery and fielding of the new weapon system are part of a $2.5 million agreement between the US Army and Swiss gunmaker B&T in 2019.
Although the service can exercise an option to procure as many as 1,000 APC9Ks under the contract, the US Army opted to purchase only 315 units.
According to reports, the purchase quantity is limited because the weapons are only intended for special international operations.
The first APC9K submachine guns were distributed to security branch personnel in 2019.
