I just purchased a new M&P 5" Performance Center gun with the slide and barrel cuts. I "like" the trigger out of the box, but it is not what what I was expecting. Way too much takeup.

Has anyone with a 2.0(before the flat trigger) installed the Flat-Faced Forward Set Trigger Kit?
Was it a major improvement? Worth the expense?
I am considering such a move. Fun gun only, not to be carried.
Thank you.

Apex knocks it out of the park, imo. I’ve had several M&P’s including 2.0’s with their triggers. Night and day difference.

I went with the apex trigger. Nothing wrong with the factory one, but the apex kit allows you a full range of trigger pulls, isn't hard to install with a bit of patience, and comes up with a trigger that makes the PPQ seem rough.

I installed the apex kit in a M&P 2.0, and my wife claimed it. I haven't seen it since. (I think she also liked the grip that stuck to the hand, like velcro).

the Apex trigger takes it to an other level, in my opinion is well worth the investment.

I had the 2.0 compact, not a performance center gun. I thought the trigger was good, especially for a home defense/range gun. I considered take up my friend I want room before I hit the wall, after the first shot take up doesn't matter reset takes over for all the other shots. I think Apex is the right choice for anyone that wants a really good trigger for competition but for the rest of shooting I think it's overkill.IMO

Apex.

There is no such thing as “overkill” when it comes to trigger control.
