Customer service with Apex was excellent Scott said we'll get the order out this afternoon.

I have a M&P 45C.

I had fired close to 100 rds the first and only time I had it out and I honestly had dry fired it at least a hundred times hoping the trigger would eventually improve a little. Nope unk uh notta.

After the trip to the range I used my Lyman pull gauge and for 20 pulls the average was 7-15 and the trigger felt like the bottom was dragging on the driveway.

I took my time installing the Apex kit really taking a closer look at how it all works together in there.

The work is a bit tedious and you have to use some real caution when removing pieces with related springs. Only mistake I made was on the slide I moved the sight out of the slot pretty quick.... yep the little cover and spring took off straight up. The gods were with me and they fell back just a foot or so away thank god for that......that spring would be EXTREMELY hard to find on a garage floor and lord help if it was a shag carpet.LOL

Any who.... got everything in and lubed up. Dry fired about 50 times then put the gauge to it. First let me say the take up now is very smooth no more gravel road. 20 pulls on the same Lyman gauge showed 5-9 so that is over a two pound improvement. I'm sure it will get a couple tenths better after a couple hundred rounds.

So for us suffering with the gritty trigger and heavy pull the Apex kit is worth every penny at least for me anyway. Plus Apex don't mess around and get the kit on the way quick.

Did you get the DCAEK? I might be wrong on that acronym...

.

10-22; I see it isn't available for the .45.

Yes I got that as well. Totally different gun after you're done with the install.
Money very, very well spent. Plus they don't mess around with getting it out to you.
Unless you have another isssue it's a 100 % improvement.

I have the DCAEK in all 3 of my M&P's..great kit, great service and Scott really takes care of you.

I just put the first 100 rounds through my new M&P 45 tonight and compared to my SW40VE, the trigger felt great, but still a bit gritty. I was with a friend who was shooting a SA XD45 and his trigger was much smoother and lighter. Still, I was able to shoot a 4in group at 20ft on my second mag. I will definitely be doing this upgrade, and I was hoping someone could post a link to a good online video of the procedure.

Apex has a few video's posted on Youtube. It's not hard to fiind in a search.
Burwell also does a good presentation on how to do a home spun trigger job.
The Burwell link has been discussed here before as well.

So I ordered the Apex Hard Sear and it made it here over the weekend. It took about 5 minutes to install (previous experience from my Sigma trigger job was a plus) and I am in awe! I still feel that it is a bit grainy on the take-up, but the weight is perfect for me and the pistol is still new. Dry-firing in the basement I can keep the sights on target with one hand all the way through the release. I will definitely be ordering the USB kit next which I hope will smooth things out even more. Kudos to Randy, his product, and his customer service! I would recommend this to everyone with an M&P.
