"Your modification removes trigger slack, not trigger creep." I agree with this statement, it is slack not creep, the sear is not being moved. The shooting community usually refers to it as creep so I do. Whether it is good or bad is a matter of personal preference IMO.

Creep is a big complaint. I'm not trying to turn this gun into anything, I'm trying to improve its characteristics on the cheap.
"pointless, dangerous, and invites malfunctions". Hardly. I would be open to your technical elaboration on these points. If the plastic piece is placed too far back...
There is a trigger safety that prevents the trigger from being pulled when there is no magazine present. It's about an inch from the opening/ejection port of the slide down in the magazine well; you should see a short, fat silver lever obstructing the magazine well. This lever should flip upward...
I would suspect ammo too. Here is an experience I just had:

I know you said the slide is fine but I would suggest trying it again without the slide return spring installed. You will get a better feel for how it tracks.
Judging by the number of views, M&P assembly instructions have an audience.
Recently I disassembled my M&P .22 pistol and upon reassembly found myself unsure about the proper location of some parts. I attempted to research the Internet for guidance and was surprised to discover that a...
If someone will remove their side plate to confirm the spring position of a factory install, point me to another assembly source or point me to this company's website or this guy's e-mail address I'd appreciate it.
When I search for their site I only get YouTube page links and Google+. I don't...
I was watching a M&P 22 assembly video from TDCtactical and noticed a discrepancy. At 24:06 he puts the slide sear disconnector pin spring in the removable sideplate and positions the spring on the opposite side of the pin than I did in my "how to" assembly post...
Mine fell out too. I hated the trigger safety before the spring fell out so I eliminated it. I show how I did it in my "M&P 22 pistol assembly w/tips and tricks" post. It is a simple modification anybody can do with basic tools. I saw it on this forum IIRC.
When I bought my pistol and disassembled it I soon had some questions about re-assembly. I wasn't able to find much information about this model or a parts diagram. I was able to figure out the re-assembly sequence by examining other M&P models parts diagrams and reviewing pictures of my...
