Pocket-size Cyberpunk SMG: The B&T TP380

In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves looks at the ultra-compact, cyberpunky TP380. The TP380 is a .380 ACP pistol/PCC/SMG introduced by Swiss B&T (Brugger & Thomet) almost 10 years ago. Initially earmarked for the South American civilian market, B&T never obtained an export license for the guns and they sat on B&T’s shelves in Thun. However, B&T is planning on introducing the subcompact .380 ACP as a pistol in the US market by the end of 2022 or the beginning of 2023. James talks with Karl Brugger personally about the TP380 and gives you his first impressions.

The B&T TP380 is a light, 33-ounce semi-automatic carbine with a 5″ threaded barrel using a simple blowback action, and firing from a closed bolt. It uses a dual slider ambi charging handle on top of the lightweight receiver. It uses 15 to 30-round double-stack box magazines, made from translucent polymer, and has a folding stock.

    33 ounces with or without the RDS?

    Still pretty light for a simple blowback .380 with a 5 inch barrel.

    This might make for a good basis for a cheek pistol.
