| I have a Hellcat and am super happy with it, except the trigger. I’m not a trigger snob. I generally keep all my guns stock and am used to glock triggers. The Hellcat trigger seems extra heavy though. I am actually considering an after market option. I value reliability most, but would appreciate something lighter. What’s available, and what has been your experience? |

My Hellcat trigger got a lot better after lots of dry fire with snap caps, and that seems to be the general consensus. Mine's good enough that even after buying the Apex trigger, I did the lazy thing of sending it back compared to fiddling around with the trigger parts of mine. If you haven't shot yours a lot, maybe get a few hundred trigger pulls with caps, and then see how you like it. |

I shopped around went with the Powder River Precsion kit with the pins upgrade. Been really happy with it, trigger it much better. My Hellcat is my EDC. There aren't a lot of options with the Hellcat for upgrading. Powder River Precsion  |

| Even after 1500'ish rounds my Hellcat trigger was heavy and my accuracy would drop off the more I shot in a single session. Installed the Apex and my accuracy stays consistant even after shooting a 100-150 round session. |
Doesn't mean that much to me to mean that much to you.

Installed the Apex and my accuracy stays consistant even after shooting a 100-150 round session. I don't think my weight has really dropped any-- the pull has just cleaned up really nicely. While it isn't a heavy compared to a DAO revolver, it is definitely the heaviest pull of all my striker-fired handguns. |
