The AMT Backup was first known as the OMC Backup. This early variant was produced in .380 ACP caliber in El Monte California. OMC produced a short run of these pistols before the molds were purchased by Arcadia Machine & Tool, who took over production.
The original AMT Backup was produced with a Single Action trigger mechanism, while the later Backup II used a Double Action Only mechanism. These pistols were manufactured by AMT and later Galena Industries (until Nov. 2001).
The AMT Backup is a small semiautomatic pistol available in a wide range of calibers: .22LR, .380 ACP, .38 Super, 9x19mm, .357 Sig, .40 S&W, .400 Corbon and .45 ACP have all been offered. This pistol was designed to be carried as a backup gun by law enforcement and security professionals or anyone desiring a small concealable weapon. Its marketing slogan was "the smallest, most powerful" backup weapon available.
The AMT Backup line of handguns is now being marketed by High Standard Manufacturing.
