New 9L with DeltaPoint
Just got this gun after a long wait. Maryland has a Handgun Roster and the gun must be approved. Took a while.
This is a really trick setup…..
The Delta is visible to co-witness with the sights….
SOOOOO…..
adjust the Delta Base to coincide with the normal sight picture and use for targets from 3-10 yards. At about 15 yards, simply place the center of the Delta on the center of the target while at 25-50 yards, place the upper "Point" of the Delta on the target…..
Distant objects get a smaller targeting reference….
Close objects see the large base of the Delta and the front sight…..
Accuracy is fantastic…. acquisition speed is very fast…

Just as a reference:
When I got the gun, it had a 5.5lb trigger which I felt was too heavy for me. I got the news that I would have to spend another $200-$250 for a complete Apex kit and trigger to get where I wanted to be…around 4 lbs.
I called the Perf. Ctr. and the person whom I spoke with told me that they could possibly take 1 - 1.5 lbs out of the pull weight.. no promises. She Emailed me a call tag, I sent the gun, and in a week had it back…Pull weight is 4.5lbs. A TRUTH! I had expected no less, but the trigger now is nearly identical to my Shield which has the Apex kit. It is still not as light as the .45 M&P with the Apex kit.
Does anyone have the new Apex…FLAT trigger…opinions?

I had the polymer FSS trigger kit in my Core for about a year and a half, changed the trigger to the flat one, liked it much better (and I was faster on my split times) so when I built a new pistol for this year I jumped right in with the Flat Faced FSS kit which is around $160, if you had to pay someone $100 to install it, I think you should find someone else to do the work  .
Pictures below 1. Old Core with 90K rounds on it. (now my wife's gun). 2. My new this year gun. and 3 Trigger pull on the new gun, much more involved than just putting the Apex kit in it.

I paid $35 to have my flat faced FSS put in my CORE 40 and then another 50 to have it removed the factory put back in then the FSS put into my 9 PRO. Got to start doing this stuff myself. Don
