Apex trigger on M&P9

[madbeans88]

Any of my fellow calgunners have any experience with the flatface apex trigger on the m&p9? Is it worth the upgrade?

[waveslayer]

I love mine, personal preference. Overall the trigger makes the gun that much better

My wife thinks I only have 3 guns

I don't have one on a m and p but I love my apex trigger

On the recommendation of several people, I will be ordering the apex trigger for my M&P Shield 9. I have heard that it makes a huge difference.

installed on my M&P 9 and M&P 40 VTAC. Love the flat face but agree with waves layer- flat or bow its personal preference and me personally, flatty. Regardless the APEX parts I've replaced on both M&Ps have been significant improvements with the trigger being night and day.

Good to hear will be ordering a kit in the near future then

I have them on both the Shield and an M&P pro. Its a shocking difference...huge improvement for a range gun while still maintaining the reset. Easy to install too.

Now I'm not sure if I would want it on a carry gun...as it gives you more of a target trigger. The trigger face itself has a much nicer feel than those stock plastic triggers.

I have the FSS and RAM on a 5" PRO CORE ported and it makes the gun. It's the best trigger on a polymer gun that I own. I have ZEV blocks and it's a great trigger. The RAM is great if you like a good reset on your trigger. I would highly recommend it.

I have a flat face FSS on one M&P and a curved FSS kit on another. The trigger pull weight and the resets are the same. The "length of pull" is a lot longer on the flat face trigger. Just something to consider.

I've also been wanting to pick up a kit for my Shield 9, so thanks for sharing that.

I don't have the flat apex trigger on my m&p I have the older one, and it's a godsend.

IMO, a full apex setup on an m&p is by far the best trigger you will get on a striker fired gun.

You can get better than apex if you have the parts and know what your doing but for production run parts the metal apex kits are pretty darn good.

I got a bunch of Apex upgrade parts for my M&P which had the 2nd worst trigger I have ever found on a gun... the 1st being a Polish police service P-64.

The Apex parts did make a difference but it was subtle, not the dramatic improvement that was wanted and needed. By contrast when I have sent guns out to a smith for trigger/action work, they come back dramatically improved. Maybe further attention by a pro would help, but I suspevt it is the guns basic design that is largely to blame.

Send your gun to Karl the Trigger Guy. He's a vendor here on the forum and does great trigger work on M&P pistols. He's done 3 guns for me and it's cheaper than the cost of a full Apex trigger kit.

I had the flat faced trigger kit installed on my M&P 9 and love it. Highly recommended.
