Description
For the M&P M2.0 owner who demands a faster, more intuitive shot, the Flat-Faced Forward Set Trigger Kit from Apex is a direct upgrade that changes how your pistol handles. This isn’t just a lighter trigger; it’s a complete re-engineering of the pull geometry to put your finger in a better position for every press.
This drop-in kit is designed specifically for the polymer frame M&P M2.0 (full-size, compact, and Shield variants). It combines the patented Apex forward-set sear with a flat-faced shoe to shorten the reach and improve leverage. The result is a trigger that breaks consistently, resets faster, and requires less effort to control through the entire cycle.
Key performance benefits you’ll feel immediately:
- Reduced trigger pull weight by roughly 2 lbs. – Achieve a clean, crisp break without sacrificing reliability for duty or concealed carry. The included Apex springs let you fine-tune the weight between a carry-safe pull and a competition-ready feel, using your factory sear and trigger return springs.
- Overall trigger travel reduced by approximately 40%. – Less wasted motion means you get on target faster. Pre-travel, over-travel, and reset distance are all shortened, giving you a shorter, more predictable pull.
- Smooth uptake and reset. – The polished engagement surfaces eliminate grit and stacking. The reset is tactile and audible, letting you stay in the fight without guessing where the wall breaks.
- Crisp, clean break. – No creep or mush. Just a sharp, defined wall that makes it easier to call your shots at the range or in a defensive scenario.
Fit and installation: This is a true drop-in kit. No filing, no gunsmith fitting, no modifications to your frame. The included parts directly replace the factory trigger assembly. The center-mounted pivoting safety maintains the same drop-safety values as your stock trigger, so you don’t compromise on reliability for performance.
Type 3 Trigger design specifics: The Type 3 shoe features chamfered front corners (instead of a radius) for a narrower feel in the trigger guard. This helps shooters with smaller hands or those who prefer a more precise finger placement. The functional surfaces are identical to the classic Apex trigger, so you get the same proven internals with a different visual profile. Note: due to the anodizing process, there may be slight color variation on the trigger shoe.
Drop-tested for safety: Apex has verified these kits are drop-safe according to their protocol
