Erik Lund wins Heavy Optics Division at U.S. Carbine Association’s National Championship.

Lund: “I was fortunate enough to bring home a win in the Heavy Optics Division at the very first U.S. Carbine Association’s National Championship. It was a tough match with some new rules that really forced the shooters to focus on exactly what they were doing. It used a new, very stringent scoring system that brought some accountability and accuracy back to the shooting sports. Every major match has rookie season issues and this match was no different but the USCA crew learned a lot at this match and are very dedicated to their organization. It will only get better next year and I’m looking forward to defending my title! Thanks Mac, Brian, Mark, and the rest of their crew for all the hard work. Good job guys! The win was a great way to finish a very long shooting season and I’m looking forward to some quit down time before the 2014 SHOT show.

I’d like to thank all the sponsor’s that supported me throughout this season and offer up a big thank you to FNH-USA, Leupold Optics, Magpul, Federal Ammunition, Vertx Clothing, Under Armour, MAC Tools, Chris Paty of CPWSA, Surefire, SJC Titan Comps, and Accurate Ordnance for turning ordinary rifles into extraodinary works of beauty and precision.

I’d also like to thank all my FNH Teammates for making those long days away from home and family a little more bearable and for my wonderful fiancee for making the trip home that much sweeter.

It’s time to unplug from the circuit, crank up the firepit, pour some good bourbon, and enjoy family and the holidays.”

While shooting the IDPA Back Up Gun National Championship recently I had the pleasure of being squadded with Scott Folk. While I couldn’t help but notice what a good shooter Scott was immediately, what I did not realize was that he is also co-founder of Apex Tactical (www.apextactical.com), one of the leaders in M&P trigger enhancement products and a variety of other useful items.

Scott took the time to show me the difference between the stock M&P mechanisms and the upgraded parts offered by Apex.  Apex has a full kit that is drop in without modification (95% of the time) called the Duty/Carry Action Enhanced Kit (DCAEK) that would be suitable for defensive carry guns.

One really neat product Scott demonstrated was the Apex Tactical gunsmithing block. Admittedly just a day before I had found myself banging away on a gun on my workbench wishing I had some sort of device that held the gun while pushing pins in and out, etc. Scott and Apex have just that!! Their gunsmithing block has adjustable bosses and raised walls that accommodates

both the M&P and glock. Scott demonstrated its use as well as a second piece that would serve to raise the gun off the work bench slightly. The product offers many more features than I can describe in this short blog.. I HIGHLY recommend you check it out!!

It was great meeting Scott and getting to know more about Apex, and if you are an M&P shooter you will certainly want to check their products out!
