Apex Tactical 100076 Duty/Carry Kit – .40 S&W for S&W M&P Pistol (Metal)
From the folks at Apex Tactical, this Duty/Carry Kit is built for the man or woman who carries a Smith & Wesson M&P in .40 S&W and wants a trigger that feels like it was made for your hand, not just stamped out of a factory. We’re Bordertown Guns, down here on the Texas border, and we know a thing or two about gear that holds up in real conditions. This kit is metal, tough, and ready to ship right to your door—anywhere in the 50 states—through your local FFL.
Let’s cut through the noise. The Apex Duty/Carry Kit is designed to give your M&P a trigger pull that’s about two pounds lighter than stock, depending on how tight your factory tolerances are. That means you’re looking at a smoother, more consistent break with less stacking and grit. The over-travel gets shortened, and the reset becomes more positive—easier to feel, easier to ride on follow-up shots. For a carry gun or a duty pistol, that’s the sweet spot: fast, predictable, and safe.
Here’s what’s in the box: a fully machined 2-Dot sear that’s cut to tighter specs than the factory piece, an Ultimate Striker Block (USB) to lighten that trigger pull without sacrificing reliability, a striker block spring, a Talon tactical tool for disassembly, a sear spring, a slave pin, and a trigger return spring. Every part is made by Apex Tactical, and they’ve been doing this long enough to know what works. The USB is the heart of the kit—it reduces friction on the striker, which is what drops that pull weight and smooths out the stroke. But here’s the thing: installing that USB into the slide takes a steady hand. We strongly recommend having a gunsmith or an armorer do it if you’re not comfortable with detail work. One slip and you’re chasing springs across the floor. Don’t be that guy.
This isn’t a competition trigger—it’s a duty/carry kit. That means it stays inside the acceptable range for a service pistol. You’re not going to get a hair trigger that scares you on a holster draw. What you get is a clean, repeatable break that makes you a better shot. The reset is short enough to keep you on target during a string of fire, but still tactile enough that you won’t double-tap by accident. For a .40 cal, which can be snappy, that control matters. You want the gun to come back on target, not fight you.
Down here on the border, we see a lot of M&P’s. They’re reliable out of the box, but the trigger is the weak link. Apex fixes that. The metal construction means these parts hold up to heat, dirt, and the kind of abuse a carry gun sees. No polymer flex, no wear-out after a few thousand rounds. The 2-Dot sear is machined from billet steel, heat-treated, and coated for corrosion resistance. That’s the kind of engineering you pay for once and forget about.
