I've been happy with the stock trigger and DCAEK in my M&Ps, but I'm curious - how similar does the Polymer AEK trigger feel to a Glock trigger? I haven't given the AEK much thought because I don't want a short travel trigger in a defense gun and I've always seen the comparisons to 1911 triggers.

Installed the FSS kit on my M&P9 this weekend. The 4lb. spring is in the gun right now, and I'm currently flirting with putting the 5.5lb. spring they provided in instead. The trigger uptake and reset is noticeably shorter (as it should be.) Put 100 rounds through the gun today and it performed just like I wanted it to, with clean predictable breaks and a solid reset. I never felt the gun was "just going to go off."
Accuracy improved a little bit, and it's definitely a shooter. I know a lot of people say a shorter trigger on a defensive gun is a no go, but I would compare it to a high quality single-action 1911 trigger pull, and I am perfectly comfortable with it. The slide and grip work done by ATEi are a nice touch too 
If I ever figure out how to post pics, I'll throw a few up. |

I have a question about the function after the APXDCAEK install.
I have to pull the striker back manually in order to get the USB to pop up all the way so it blocks the striker moving forward. then The striker is blocked. I push the USB in and the striker can move forward now when I let the USB go, the USB does not come up all the way and the striker is not blocked unless I pull the striker back a hair and then then the USB pops up. Is this normal? |

Your spring could be pinched under your rear sight after installing the USB.

Interesting analogy. With the lighter spring would you say it's like carrying a 1911 cocked and UNlocked? Originally Posted By TheTacticalCoyote:

With the weight approximately the same, what makes the hard sear 'safer' than the FSS? |

IMO, the FSS closely mimics a 1911esque trigger and because of it I wouldn't use it for duty or carry use unless I had a TS on my M&P, like 1911s do. The AEK trigger with hard sear bridges the gap between a decent stock trigger and the FSS trigger. |

The glock trigger being rounder and setting farther forward then the M&p. Anyways i recently installed the Poly AEK and Duty springs and hard sear. And found the trigger to be just as heavy as before. I had to put all the stock springs back in to get any reduction in trigger pull. Anyone else have this problem? This is a recent production M&p. |

I've got an 9mm compact that's a couple of years old. Trigger pull on it is pretty smooth. I never understood all the complaints about the "gritty" trigger". I purchased a couple more 9s, as well as a 40 and 45 over the summer. WOW! NOW I understand! It literally feels like someone poured sand in the housings on those guns! I replaced the crappy trigger on one of the "new" 9compatcs with the Poly AEK, duty springs, hard sear, and the Apex sear release plunger (I forget what it's called). While it made an IMMENSE difference on the trigger for that gun...it still feels just about the same as the trigger on the "good" (stock) older M&P. Comparing the two side by side, I would say trigger pull weights are very comparable. Enough so that I thought "it would be a waste to put this stuff in the gun with the good factory trigger". I may still replace the trigger, though. I hate that split design. |

I just bought a brand m&p9 full size and after 50 rounds I bought the dcaek kit and the ram. Upon receiving items and breaking the gun down, there is no recess/ channel to install ram, FYI.

You probably don't need the Ram. |

What parts will make the m&p trigger most closely resemble the glock trigger?
I love Glocks, but I can't get over no safety. I shoot them the best, but I like the feel of the M&P best. It looks like the AEK will give it the glock-style safety, so what parts do I need to get the pull right? I like glocks because you pull through the take-up and then hit the "wall", and you know exactly where it is going to fire. With the M&P's, I always had trouble because the break-over point wasn't as "solid", it just felt kind of mushy. |

I love my poly trigger and forward set sear kit. It resembles the Glock trigger in my opinion but seems to be smoother and lighter.it does have the same type of glock safety and I feel confident for every day carry with this trigger kit even using the 4lb spring. the stock trigger simply was horrible and there's no comparison with the apex kit. So far I've gotten 1000 rounds down range with apex kit and I've had no issues.

Hey. I am new to the forums and have just read the whole topic and discussion here and can't find an answer to my question. I tried searching the forums, But no matter what I searched for it said I had no results.. Soo... idk... Anyway I just recently got my first reliable hand gun. M&P Pro 9mm 5inch and it was made in December of 2013. The spent casing fire date was on the 4th of December. My question is will the FSS work with my gun? It has absolutely no safety or anything on it. I have seen stuff about the RAM not working on some newer M&Ps, but haven't found anything about the FSS trigger kit not working on them, But its way to expensive of a mistake to make. Buying it only to find out it will not work in my gun... Even if I was able to return it. I would still be out around 30 bucks for shipping back and forth.. One thing I hate is to waste money. Don't have much of it as it is and have to save up to long just to get part like this..

My poly AEK arrived today, and I installed it into my older 40c that already had a well broken in DCAEK and RAM.
I like it! I really do prefer the "bladed" trigger feel, and the reduction in pre and over travel is noticeable. I had to make a slight tweak to the trigger bar loop as shown in Randy's installation video, an easy job. I already went ahead and ordered one for my 9FS, hopefully Apex will do a poly version for the Shield, too. |

Watch the video a few times if you are thinking about installing it yourself. Especially because it may require having to tweak the loop on the end of the trigger bar. Everything else just drops in and it is very simple.

Tactical Coyote, is the FSS kit the same as a DCAEK and a AEK combined? I got the impression you personally felt the FSS was too much for a carry gun (especially for one lacking an external safety). Is this correct?

The FSS is NOT the same as the dcaek and apex aek trigger.
As for the feller asking which will make it most like the glock.... the answer is truthfully none of them. The pre travel on the m&p compared to the glock is what is the main difference and the FSS will be you closest bet. Will it be better than a stock glock trigger with 3.5# connector and polished internals, IMO unfortunately not. |

I like Glock triggers, I like the FSS, if I had it to do all over again I probably would not go with the FSS in my carry gun. It is too light and short. |

The way I looked at it was that I had to spend 160 bucks just to get the trigger to where it needs to be, and should have been from the factory. So compared to 15 bucks in parts with my glock, it's not "better". Just my opinion.
As for the DCAEK and AEK trigger. You should be fine as it will marginally reduce pre/over travel in the trigger. It still retains the trigger safety, just adds more comfort and shorter, not lighter pull. |

I bought the M&P knowing that I would put an Apex Trigger in it. As is commonly said around here, if you want to stay Stock Go Glock, if you want to mod your gun to be what you want go M&P. |

So just picked up a new full size m&P 45 and also scored a new dcaek for it on the EE here.
So reading up it seems that i have 2 options when installing, either using the supplied apex trigger and sear spring or keeping in the originals. I have heard using the apex springs brings the trigger pull to around mid 5's and above, while using the stock springs gets it under 5 pounds and more like a 4.5lb break. Gun wont be a carry gun anytime soon, just want a good/better feeling trigger then it was out of the box. Any info here from people that have installed parts by piece and seen what it did? thanks |

The safety should contact the frame on the backside unless it is depressed. There could be several little adjustments or issues that may cause that, the best thing to do is to call Randy at Apex directly in the morning.

I put the Poly Fss kit in my Pro CORE 9, the took the Pro sear that came out of the 9 and put it in my 40c with a Apex poly trigger and both guns are so much better than they were from the factory. If you don't have their Armorers Block you are missing out, it makes disassembly and re assembly a pleasure.

I have a new M&P9 FS test fired in February 2014. It has a very nice, audible reset but the takeup is gritty and once the trigger hits the "wall" the pull is very heavy (my uneducated guess is at least 7 or 8 pounds).
This is a defensive gun not competition. Would the Polymer AEK trigger + DCAEK kit be the way to go for me? |

I installed the DCAEK, poly trigger, and the RAM today and now I have a question. Are the sear spring in the DCAEK and the sear spring in the Poly trigger kit the same spring or will using one over the other yield a different over all trigger pull weight? If anyone else has this combo I would like to know so that I can decide if I would want something heavier or lighter or if it is not possible to adjust without going back to the original factory sear spring. Thanks.

Gents,
I have a new 9pro5. I love the pistol, hell it has me looking at replacing my glocks with smiths. Anyway, I do wish the trigger had a cleaner take up and audible reset.

When I pull the take up the trigger seems to "bind" then will break cleanly after that. Not really sure what the problem is as it does not do it every time. It feels as though the trigger bar is binding against the side of the frame. There is an audible click when the binding occurs. Ill post up again when I resolve the issue. |

Has anyone heard more about the universal RAM that's in development? I just picked up a new 45c and it's sorely in need of a RAM - reset is almost undetectable.

I stopped at the range on the way home tonight and put 150 rounds of hardball through the new 45c, enough to tell me it won't need to go back to the mothership for warranty work.
When I got home I installed a DCAEK and poly AEK, they made a huge improvement in the trigger pull and even helped the reset feel a little. This 45c had a particularly bad trigger from the factory, but the Apex parts worked their usual magic. This is the first poly AEK I've installed that didn't need to have the trigger bar loop twiddled with. Randy, please - release the universal RAM! |
