I shot one a while ago and added to my gun list immediately I was amazed with it. Now the rebate and online prices was the perfect timing. Mine is already cleaned and lubed, it came with a lot of oil kind of sticky. I noticed the trigger is way better out of the box on the 45 compared with the shield 9, it breaks clean, nice and crispy, no more grittiness, didn't measured it but it seems between 5.5 and 6lb my shield 9 is under 6lb with the apex trigger kit, can't wait to shoot it hopefully tomorrow.
