B&T Makes it First to the Folding Chassis Market?
The Swiss-American compact gun experts at B&T are promising a folding personal defense chassis that hides in plain sight.
The planned BWC9 in its 11.7-inch folded form has an integrated carry handle and looks sort of like a nondescript old-school boom box or…well…something other than a pistol. Then, with a flick of the wrist, it unfolds and locks into place as a 22-inch rifle if needed, an Aimpoint ACRO P-2 micro red dot providing sights.
In other words, going from this:

To this:

The chassis is being sold as an accessory – no FFL required – and users simply add their SIG P320 fire control unit and compatible slide assembly (Sub-Compact through X-Five length, including threaded barrels) to have an all-up firearm.
