Features and Functionality
The AMT Backup is renowned for its small size, making it ideal for concealed carry. Its all-stainless steel construction provides excellent rust resistance and durability, ensuring longevity and reliability in various conditions.

The .22LR variant, while not the most powerful caliber, offers a manageable recoil and is better than harsh words.

Historical Significance and Value

The sights are fixed, of a rudimentary channel type, designed for close-range engagements. The magazine features a hook/pinky extension, enhancing grip and handling.

Performance and Practicality
AMT, founded in 1977, produced all-stainless steel firearms, and the Backup series holds a unique place in firearms history. While AMT is no longer in production, the Backup remains a sought-after pistol. The .22LR variant is a rare find, with prices varying depending on condition.
