Apex Announces Trigger Upgrades for M&P Shield 45

PEORIA, Ariz. – (ArmsVault.com) – Apex Tactical Specialties announces that it is expanding its line-up of aftermarket drop-in parts for the M&P Shield with the upcoming release of an Apex Action Enhancement Trigger and Apex Duty/Carry Kit for the Smith & Wesson M&P Shield 45.


The new aluminum Apex Action Enhancement Trigger for the Shield 45 reduces pre-travel and over-travel by approximately 20% and is a direct drop-in replacement for the factory polymer hinged trigger. The trigger body features a center-mounted pivoting safety which maintains factory safety values.

The Apex Duty/Carry Kit for the Shield 45 consists of an Apex Fully Machined Sear, Sear Spring, Trigger Return Spring and Striker Block Spring to provide a smooth uptake and reset while producing a trigger pull in the range of 5.0 to 5.5 lbs.
