AA Arms/Kimel Industries AP-9 Pistol - 9x19mm
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
AA Arms/Kimel Industries AP-9 Mini - 9x19mm. Like the TEC9 Mini, this is an ultra short version of the standard gun.

The AP-9 was an inexpensive, simple to manufacture 9x19mm pistol, designed to capitalize on the market of the Intratec TEC-9 series of guns in the 1980s. It was manufactured by AA Arms and distributed by Kimel Industries, Inc of Indian Trail, NC. The AP-9 became widely available in 1990 and continued until 2001, however sales dropped off and cosmetic changes had to be instituted as a result of the Clinton Assault Weapon Ban of 1994 (officially known as the Omnibus Crime Bill 1994).

Many people confuse the AP-9 with the TEC-9.

Externally they are similar but there are many small differences. Both guns can load and use the same magazine. As a result, the AP-9 is one of the most 'mis-identified' guns in media, films, or the news.
