Installed my Apex Shield AET trigger.

[SpringGunTunes]

I installed the Apex M&P Shield Action Enhancement Trigger that I got for Christmas last night.
I have all the other Apex Shield goodies in this pistol as well.
I'm not exactly sure what happened, but when I first got the pistol assembled and tried the trigger, I had to use a little more force to get the trigger to break. Reset was extremely short and a pleasure to feel. I field stripped the pistol and had a look inside. All looked fine so I assembled it and tried again. As I cycled the action the problem started to fade. Now, the trigger functions as I expected.
I think there was a little polymer flash on the frame that cleared as I cycled the action.
Over travel after the trigger breaks is minimal and reset is just a couple of millimeters. Less reset travel than my .40c FSS.
I hope to get to the range to try this baby out. I have about 500 more Federal 180 grain HST rounds left from the case I bought and I'll see how this .40 Shield holds up.
I expect no issues.

Did you cleanup the trigger opening per apex instructions. I had to cleanup both sides of the opening when I installed mine to get the trigger moving smoothly.

Did you cleanup the trigger opening per apex instructions.

Yes. It was not the forward position or side to side that was binding like the video said. It was the rearward stop.
After cycling the action about a dozen times the trigger worked during dry firing as expected.
A few hundred rounds at the range will confirm this I expect.

I'm looking to get the apex kit whenever I get my shield. Let us know how it goes.. I'm hoping I can do the install myself
