Main issues with USW
it was built using a modified Sphinx receiver post Sphinx going under. B&T bought their remaining tooling and parts.
they extended the rear of the lower, added the bridge, scalloped the front of the slide added the latch for the folding stock etc.
The bridge is not picatinny. The bridge is ONLY machined for the Aimpoint NANO. There was a VERY small amount of fsctory USWs towards the end of their manufacturing that started to use bridges that were cut for ONLY the Acro.
you cannot buy the Aimpoint NANO anymore they’re all gone. If your optic craps the bed you’re pretty much fucked as there are no rear sights and you cannot modify the bridge or modify optics to use NANO mount
the holster only works with the Inforce APL. This is discontinued. Inforce will not fix broken APLs and at this point in life almost all their switches have failed.
the light is B&T stamped from Inforce so it’s a part of the “package” but mine was broken, and I couldn’t use the holster without it so dead weapon light and no means to replace with any other manufacturer
when I contacted B&T to buy spare maintenance parts, recoil spring, extractor etc they had none. They are starting to roll out their MK whatever pistol line, which is Sphinx pistols again, but still said they don’t foresee selling any spare small parts for those pistols in the future. It may change but as of now you won’t find a recoil spring or anything else.
kriss now owns the Sphinx license and they too have no spare parts and are abandoning the pistol (which may be why B&T picked it back up yet again.
so proprietary parts unavailable
Proprietary optic and optic rail.
irreplaceable and non-serviceable from Aimpoint without being original purchaser and they will be providing
ACROs as NANO replacements they won’t fit
proprietary weapon light which is probably the worst weapon light ever made (not you Olight) holster won’t work without it, irreplaceable
