Previewed at the 2014 NRA Show in Indianapolis, the design of the Flat-Faced Forward Set Trigger was extremely popular with customers who were looking to replicate the feel of a flat 1911 type trigger but in an M&amp;P pistol.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFollowing on the success and popularity of our Forward Set Trigger, we looked to further increase the performance of the M&amp;P\u2019s fire control system with a trigger profile closer to what 1911 shooters experience. The new Flat-Faced Forward Set Trigger delivers a feel and performance of a factory 1911 type trigger at an approximate weight of 4.0 to 5.0 lbs,\u201d explained Randy Lee, president at Apex Tactical Specialties.<\/p>\n<p>Designed to work in any Smith &amp; Wesson M&amp;P model pistol in a centerfire caliber, the Apex Flat-Faced Forward Set Sear &amp; Trigger Kit reduces trigger pre-travel and over-travel, while allowing the shooter to position their finger at an increased leverage point lower on the trigger face to take advantage of lower trigger pull weights.<\/p>\n<p>Included in the full kit are the Apex Forward Set Sear which shortens the stroke of the trigger by dropping the striker at a point farther forward than the factory sear. The Ultimate Striker Block produces a smoother trigger pull and eliminates most false reset issues through an improved radius on the striker block face. The Forward Set Spring Kit produces a trigger pull of 4.0 to 5.0 lbs (depending on trigger return spring installed).<\/p>\n<p>httpvh:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=XzfR1E9Uh38<\/p>\n<p>The new Apex Flat-Faced Forward Set Sear &amp; Trigger Kit, part #100-054, retails for $169.95 and is available now at <a href=\"https:\/\/apextactical.com\/store\/product-info.php?pid87.html\" target=\"_blank\">ApexTactical.com<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.brownells.com\/search\/index.htm?k=apex+tactical&amp;ksubmit=y&amp;f_a=1\" target=\"_blank\">Brownells.com<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gandrtactical.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">G&amp;R Tactical<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.speedshooterspecialties.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Speed Shooter Specialties<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Customers who already have an Apex Forward Set Trigger Kit installed in their M&amp;P and want to install the new Flat-Faced Trigger should contact Apex Tactical Specialties at (805) 528-5250 or guns@apextactical.com for options.<\/p>\n<p><b>Features and Specifications:<\/b><br \/>\n\u2013 Lowers trigger weight between 4.0 and 5.0 lbs<br \/>\n\u2013 Smooth uptake and reset<br \/>\n\u2013 Total trigger travel similar to most factory 1911 type pistols<br \/>\n\u2013 Center mounted pivoting safety maintains factory safety values<br \/>\n\u2013 Works with all Smith &amp; Wesson M&amp;P pistols in centerfire calibers (excluding the Shield)<br \/>\n\u2013 Easy to install (watch <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/playlist?list=PL49zaerr9Gi_4Y07uhJW1I0iIAPl6mr6d\" target=\"_blank\">Apex installation videos<\/a>)<br \/>\n\u2013 Requires use of sear housing block designed for large size sear plunger and spring (current production as of June 2011)<br \/>\n\u2013 Apex Part #: 100-054<br \/>\n\u2013 MSRP: $169.95<\/p>\n<p>For more information on Apex parts and services, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.apextactical.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.ApexTactical.com<\/a>, like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/apextactical\" target=\"_blank\">Apex Tactical on Facebook<\/a> or follow <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/apextactical\" target=\"_blank\">@ApexTactical<\/a> on Twitter.
