Being frugal (cheap) I was hoping that I could just change a spring and achieve the lighter pull. One of my buddies bought the Apex kit for about $125 but the local FFL wants another $200 or so to do the work. As I said in my original post, I just hate to take a gun that I thought was a bargain at $414 OTD and turn it into a $700 gun. And that was before I finally got my $75 refund after about 6 months.
