Citing the regressive business climate, particularly for companies in the firearms industry, Randy Lee and Scott Folk, co-owners of Apex Tactical Specialties, the highly regarded designer and manufacturer of aftermarket firearms parts, announced the company has fled the state of California and relocated to Peoria, Arizona and a new 50,000 sq. ft. facility.

Founded by Lee in 2000, Apex got its start as a custom gunsmithing shop best known for Lee’s groundbreaking work on revolver actions. As the company ventured into parts design and manufacturing Apex grew rapidly, experiencing double-digit annual growth. In 2011 the company moved from a small 500 sq. ft. space into a 6,000 sq. ft. facility in Los Osos, California, just down the road from San Luis Obispo and California Polytechnic State University where Lee earned his engineering degree.

Four years later Apex was outgrowing the Los Osos location, and with the anti-gun political climate in California continuing to dominate state politics, it was clear to Lee and Folk that the next move would be to a new state and not just a new building. Read more
