Apex Tactical 100026 Action Enhancement Trigger – For Smith & Wesson M&P (9mm / .40 S&W)
Howdy, and thanks for stopping by Bordertown Guns. Down here on the Texas border, we don’t mess around with gear that can’t hold up to hard use. That’s why we carry Apex Tactical. This here is their 100026 Action Enhancement Trigger, a drop-in replacement for your Smith & Wesson M&P pistol. If you’ve been fighting that factory hinged trigger, you know what we mean. This fixes it.
Apex Tactical builds this trigger with a solid polymer body and a center-mounted pivoting safety. No more hinge, no more mush. The curved face sits smooth against your finger – not sharp, not awkward, just right for consistent shots. It’s a direct replacement that drops in without filing or fitting, though we always recommend having a qualified armorer or gunsmith handle installation if you’re not comfortable doing it yourself. We do it in-house at Bordertown Guns, so if you’re local, bring it by.
What you’ll notice first is the pull. Apex designed this to work with their Duty/Carry Kit internals, giving you a clean 5.0 to 5.5-pound trigger pull. That’s right in the sweet spot for a service pistol – light enough to shoot accurately, heavy enough to keep you honest. You’re not getting a hair trigger here. You’re getting a duty-ready pull that still feels crisp. Pre-travel and over-travel are both cut by about 20% compared to stock. That means less wasted motion, faster follow-up shots, and a reset you can feel without hunting for it.
The whole kit is drop-in. No drilling, no grinding, no sending your slide off to some shop. Apex engineered it so the average guy with basic mechanical skills can swap it out, but again – if you’re not sure, let a pro do it. We’ve seen too many guys mess up a perfectly good pistol trying to save fifty bucks. That said, the trigger shoe itself is a direct fit for M&P 9mm and .40 S&W models. No need to buy extra parts unless you want the full Duty/Carry Kit, which we also stock.
Let’s talk about why you’d want this over the factory trigger. Stock M&P triggers are reliable, but they’re not great. They’ve got that hinge that pinches your finger, and the pull is long and gritty. Apex fixes all that. The curved face spreads the pressure out, so you don’t get that hot spot on your trigger finger after a long range session. And the shorter reset? That’s where the real speed comes from. You can shoot this gun fast without losing the trigger feel between shots.
Now, a word about Bordertown Guns. We’re a licensed FFL dealer right on the Texas border. We know guns, we shoot guns, and we sell to folks who actually use them. That means we don’t just list parts – we tell you what works and what doesn’t. This Apex trigger works. Period. We ship to all 50 states, so if you’re in Maine or California or anywhere in between, we can get this to your local FFL. Just make sure you know your state and local laws before ordering. We’ll handle the paperwork on our end, but you need a receiving dealer ready to go.
Price is $121.00, which is about what you’d pay at any shop that knows what they’re doing. But you’re buying from people who actually install these things, not just warehouse them. If you’ve got questions, call us. We’ll tell you straight – no fluff, no sales pitch. This trigger will make your M&P shoot better. That’s the bottom line.
One more thing – Apex Tactical stands behind their stuff. This isn’t some no-name import. They’re American-made, tested hard, and proven in guns that see real use. If you’re building a carry gun, a competition rig, or just want your home defense pistol to shoot smoother, this is the part you need.
