Tristar Apoc Lede

TriStar Arms has introduced the APOC, a compact 9 mm pistol that delivers modern features and reliable performance at an affordable price of $359.00.

“Shooter feedback drove every decision on the APOC,” said TriStar Arms President Ryan Bader. “We set out to build a pistol that feels right in the hand, runs reliably, and is affordable for everyday use.” Bader says that for pistol owners it means more time on the trigger, less time worrying about cost. ”Built with everyday shooters in mind, the APOC strikes a balance between performance and price,” he said, noting its compact size makes it easy to carry and control, while its feature set—fiber-optic sights, accessory rail, and included 15-round magazines—gives shooters everything they need straight out of the box. At $359, the APOC is positioned as a reliable, go-to pistol for training, range time or personal defense, without stretching the budget.
