Veteran Marine Gunsmith Travis Bankston, the energizing force on APO's team of 2112's behind this effort, said, "The Custom Shop offers civilian pistol shooters the same reliable, high quality pistol builds and modifications we provided to the Marine Corps shooting teams, Force Reconnaissance and MARSOC throughout our careers, for competition or combat."

"APOCS will earn the trust and confidence of civilian shooters and law enforcement officers," continued Bankston, "by providing accurate, reliable and affordable, optically-enhanced, custom handguns.  We'll provide the same high quality custom firearms for recreational and competitive shooting, personal protection, and tactical operations we confidently provided to Marine Warfighters."

Depending on the make and model of pistol being modified shooters have the option of mounting the RMR with the rear sight behind or in-front* of the optic.  Co-witnessed iron sights offer shooters many advantages to include rapid red dot acquisition, RMR protection and emergency cocking point* and RMR back up the in the event of battery failure.

Shooters can also have other grip, frame, slide and fire control [trigger] enhancements made by APOCS team of qualified gunsmiths and machinists.  APOCS is additionally supported by an experienced team of Ashbury engineers, machinists and product developers who are all shooters and hunters.
