You are welcome, but I don't know that I added much to some already astute comments.

I too was wondering about the Apex. I believe the Apex you found also sells some other handgun parts. I suspect we are talking about two different companies named Apex. It seems to be one of those fairly common names based on the concept of being the best, "pinnacle" being another example.

But maybe not. It couldn't hurt to contact them and find out.

I don't know how you feel about the stock, but a skillful stock maker could possibly "tone down" the cheek piece a bit. He could possibly do something about the flair on the pistol grip, but that would get into some very well done checkering.

Is there anything "uniquely stylish" about the fore end?

It would also be great to learn more about the provenance. It would be interesting to discover this was an early effort by someone who later became well known. Great craftsmanship, that's for sure.
