Last year Folk took 1st Expert in the Enhanced Service Pistol (ESP) division at this event.<\/p>\n<p>Folk shot the match using an Apex custom tuned Smith &amp; Wesson Model 625 revolver drawn from a Comp-Tac brand holster. His final time of 374.07 seconds, scoring 112 points down, was the third best finish among the 21 competitors in the division. The only two shooters to outpace Folk were Distinguished Masters Jerry Miculek (325.93) and Josh Lentz (300.11) of Team Smith &amp; Wesson.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis year\u2019s Smith &amp; Wesson IDPA Indoor Nationals was a very technical match with non-threat targets on each stage putting a premium on accuracy. Despite the challenging stages I was able to put together a solid enough run, against a talented pool of shooters, to take 1st Master,\u201d said Folk.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to competing in the match, Apex Tactical Specialties supported the championship as a stage sponsor. Folk also worked the match as the on-site gunsmith helping competitors maintain their equipment, and in a handful of cases resolving equipment issues that could have resulted in match disqualifications.<\/p>\n<p>The 2016 Smith &amp; Wesson IDPA Indoor Nationals took place February 18-20 on the indoor ranges of the Smith &amp; Wesson Shooting Sports Center in Springfield, Mass.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on Team Apex, or parts and services from Apex Tactical Specialties, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.apextactical.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.ApexTactical.com<\/a>, like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/apextactical\" target=\"_blank\">Apex Tactical on Facebook<\/a> or follow @ApexTactical on <a href=\"http:\/\/instagram.com\/apextactical\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/apextactical\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a>.
