The Century Arms AP5 Core 9mm pistol is a semi-automatic roller-lock platform built on proven design principles that have earned respect across military and civilian shooters worldwide for over five decades. This full-sized 9mm model brings that heritage into a modern, accessible package—manufactured in Turkey and imported by Century Arms. It's built for shooters who value reliability, capacity, and shootability without unnecessary complexity or premium pricing.
The AP5 Core features a cold hammer-forged chrome molybdenum vanadium barrel with a 1:9.8 twist rate and a 1/2x28 threaded muzzle, so you have suppressor-mounting flexibility if you go that route. The roller-lock delayed blowback action cycles cleanly and predictably, making it a solid choice whether you're running drills at an indoor range, working from a carbine course, or simply enjoying trigger time with a no-nonsense 9mm platform. The fully adjustable rear sight and fixed front sight come ready to zero, and the 30+1 round capacity keeps you on the line longer between reloads.
This package includes one 30-round magazine, a sling, and a gun lock. The synthetic stock keeps weight reasonable at 5.5 pounds, and the 8.9-inch barrel strikes a practical balance between velocity and handling. If you're looking for a modern interpretation of a battle-tested action—one that doesn't try to be something it's not—the AP5 Core delivers honest, straightforward performance.

No. The AP5 Core is the full-sized model, with an 8.9-inch barrel and 17.9-inch overall length.
