Desert Tech is an American munitions manufacturer. The company primarily produces bullpup rifles. It is financed and owned by members of the Kingston family, founders of the Latter Day Church of Christ, which is a polygamous fundamentalist denomination of the Latter Day Saint Movement.
Operations
Desert Tech is located in West Valley City, Utah. It is owned by members of the Kingston family, the founders of the Latter Day Church of Christ. Its CEO, Nick Young, is a member of the Numbered Men who are privileged within the religious group. As of May 2018 all of their firearms are rifles with a bullpup design. Desert Tech's motto is "Tomorrow's Weapons". They make three different styles of rifle, the SRS, HTI, and MDRx. According to the company, all of their chassis are multi caliber and easily changeable from one caliber to another.
The company has a subsidiary in India named Neco Desert Tech Defence.
History
Desert Tech was founded in 2007 as Desert Tactical Arms and later re-branded as Desert Tech in 2013.
In July 2019, federal prosecutors gave notice that they intended to seize a building Desert Tech was renting for some of their operations. The proposed seizure was part of an investigation into fraud allegations against members of the Kingston family. Desert Tech CEO Nick Young denied the company was involved in the matters under investigation and noted that no public accusation of wrongdoing had been made against his company. Ultimately the building seizure did not proceed.
Donald Trump Jr was shown in a promotion for Desert Tech on July 24, 2020, with the company's CEO and firing the company's sniper rifles. A marketing video on YouTube also includes an image of Trump Jr. Former members of the Latter Day Church of Christ criticized Trump for associating with the company.
