#Aptus

Georgia-based DRD Tactical have announced a procurement contract with an unnamed US ally in Asia to provide an unspecified number of their APTUS(AMG) Rifles. The APTUS uses a patented internal recoil system that allows the rifle to have a folding stock and a quick change barrel.

DRD Tactical announced the company was now shipping the Aptus Multi-Caliber Weapon System. Both pistol and rifle versions of the gun will now be available.

DRD Tactical previously came out with their break down 7.62x51mm Paratus rifle, and now they have a 5.56x45mm version. We featured the Aptus on TFB TV with Edward O if you want to give that a look. It should be coming to the U.S. civilian market in Spring of this year, with both SBR and full length variants. Although both are just a barrel change away, so if you purchase the 16″ version and like it, you should be able to file your SBR stamp and then receive the 7.5″ SBR variant. In addition to 5.56×45, the company also has a .300 BLK barrel available that can be used in the same platform.
