The Glock design is to semi-auto handguns what the AR-15 design is to semi-auto rifles. TriStar Arms, an importer of rifles, shotguns and handguns, introduced its APOC pistols, a striker-fired, semi-automatic pistol that shared compatibility with the Gen3 Glock, last year. New for 2026, the company is taking the APOC in its own direction with the APOC Pro.
Like the original, the APOC Pro is a striker-fired, polymer-frame, semi-automatic pistol chambered in 9 mm Luger that approximates the size of the Glock 19. Magazines are Glock-compatible, and two 15-rounders are supplied with each pistol. The grip frame is modular and comes with two backstraps to customize its size and has a Picatinny accessory rail on its dustcover. Both front and rear sights are Glock-compatible and have fiber-optic inserts.
The PRO model takes a step away from the APOC’s Gen3 Glock roots, yet the design maintains holster, magazine and major parts compatibility. A removable magazine well has been added to the grip frame. The profile of the slide has been re-contoured, with lightening cuts in the top and a bevel on the upper front surfaces.
As an optic-ready handgun, the PRO has an RMSc-footprint optics cut and comes with an adapter plate for mounting optics with an RMR footprint. Suppressor-ready, its barrel is extended with its muzzle threaded 1/2×28 TPI and comes with a thread protector. Like the standard APOC, the PRO will be available with black, olive green, flat dark earth or sniper gray finishes.
The TriStar Arms APOC PRO has an MSRP of $399. For more information, see the company’s website.
