Default 2013 M&P's and APEX Kits

I have been contemplating purchasing 2 APEX kits for my 9mm FS and C. I was reading there was a change/improvement to the sear for newer M&P's. Is an APEX kit a vast improvement over the "improved" S&W trigger? Or am I completely misinformed on this matter.

Thanks

Are you sure you have the new sear?

i just picked up my M&P40FS yesterday. Born on date of March of this year, and it still has a pretty gritty initial takeup, with a fairly crisp (but not good) break. Seems to be the luck of the draw.

It's like owning a different M&P once you have it installed, you will be amazed. If you have the time and some mechanical ability and a few tools you can acheive the same by doing a burwell trigger job on your M&P. just google burwell trigger and it is complete instructions with pictures.

OK. After some searching I guess the DKAEK is fine, just not the RAM.
