Striker Fired Pistol Safeties

[RustyIron]

I am an Auto Tech of 40 years and I can't help but take things apart, analyze there operation and try to understand weaknesses and things that could fail, it's just how my brain works.

Put your brain to work on this, and you'll quickly see why all your fears are unfounded.

Donny,
I have 2 Shields in 9mm.
I recently installed an Apex trigger with their striker block and sear. Pretty dang nice set up, well worth the $159. I have never had a gripe with the factory triggers, the Apex actually feels a bit heavier but is a much cleaner break with no creep to it and stopped the muzzle from moving slightly when the factory sear released.
I tried several different sights and ended up keeping the Trijicon HD's.
One other addition has been Magguts plus 2 magazines mods, gives you 11 total rds in the gun which isn't bad at all for a pretty small package.

Honestly since I polished the striker safety, rounded the sides slightly and polished all other surfaces the trigger is very nice but not too light, took it down to 4-5 lbs. I have the mag extensions for a couple mags but when I carry the 7 round it's the easiest to conceal with 2, 8 round back up I would hope 24 rounds is enough. I am surprised that it prints a lot with the 8 round but not 7 but it is a big difference. I can carry at 4:30 position with a loose t shirt. I got mine at Turners on sale with night sight(s) and was disappointed at first that only the front is a night sight and the read is just black but is does pop in the dark very well. I guess in the dark trying to line up both is a pointless waste of time in a high stress situation.
