I have 1300 rounds through my Shield .45., and that has been my experience, too. A smooth trigger right out of the box, which has lightened up with use. My Shield 9 (4800 rounds) trigger was similar. I've never understood those who want to replace their factory trigger with an Apex before they've even fired a round. If you still don't like your trigger after 1000 rounds, OK, go Apex, but at least give the factory trigger a chance. You might end up liking it and saving yourself some money. If you're going to carry, you don't want a trigger that is too light. Both of my Shields now have triggers that have become perfect for carry guns.
