Apex Tactical 10027BLK Flat Face Forward Set Trigger Kit Black Compatible w/ M&P 2.0

Description

If you’re running a Smith & Wesson M&P 2.0 and you’ve been fighting that gritty, spongy factory trigger, you already know the fix. Apex Tactical’s 10027BLK Flat Face Forward Set Trigger Kit is the cure. This is the kit that turns your service pistol into something that actually feels like it was designed by shooters, not accountants. And at CalGuns Depot, we ship this nationwide via FFL – so whether you’re in Bakersfield or Biloxi, we’ve got you covered.

Let’s get one thing straight: this isn’t a drop-in magic bullet that turns your gun into a race gun with zero effort. It’s a purpose-built system that addresses the three biggest complaints about the M&P 2.0 trigger: the long, vague take-up, the gritty break, and that sluggish reset that makes follow-up shots feel like you’re dragging a dead weight. Apex engineers this kit to give you a smooth, consistent pull with a drastically shorter over-travel and a reset that snaps back so fast you’ll think you broke something (you didn’t).

The heart of this kit is the flat-faced forward set trigger shoe. That flat face isn’t just for looks – it spreads the pressure across your finger pad instead of letting it roll off the curved edge like a factory trigger. You get a more consistent finger placement shot after shot, which means less yanking and more accurate shooting. The “forward set” part means the trigger’s resting position is moved slightly rearward, shortening the distance your finger has to travel before the sear breaks. For guys with shorter fingers or who prefer a higher grip, this is a godsend.

Now, about pull weight. Apex gives you the flexibility to tune it. Use their springs with the factory sear and trigger return springs, and you can set the pull weight anywhere from a duty/carry-friendly 4.5-5.5 pounds down to a competition-smooth 3.5-4 pounds. That’s not a gimmick – it’s real adjustability without swapping out parts every time you change your mind. The kit includes the Apex sear, trigger, trigger bar, and the necessary springs. You keep the factory sear spring and trigger return spring if you want a heavier, more defensive pull, or swap in the Apex parts for a lighter, crisper break. It’s your call.

Installation is straightforward if you’ve got basic gunsmithing skills and a punch set. Apex’s instructions are clear, and there are plenty of YouTube walkthroughs. Expect about 20-30 minutes if you’ve done it before, maybe an hour if you’re careful and double-checking every step. No filing, no fitting, no sending the slide off to a machine shop. Just a clean, drop-in upgrade that transforms the trigger.

One thing we hear a lot from guys here in California – especially those running M&P 2.0s for three-gun or USPSA – is that this kit makes the gun feel like it costs twice what you paid. The flat shoe gives you a more tactile feel for the wall, and the reset is so short you can ride it like a cheap dirt bike. For duty use, we recommend starting with the heavier spring setup and tuning down once you’ve run a few hundred rounds. Apex’s reliability record is solid – these kits have been vetted by law enforcement agencies and competition shooters alike.

At CalGuns Depot, we’re a licensed FFL dealer, and we ship to all 50 states. That means no matter where you are, we can get this kit to your local FFL. We don’t play games with compliance – if it’s legal in your state, we’ll get it there.

Apex Tactical has been doing this longer than most, and they’ve got the reputation to back it up. You’re not buying a gimmick – you’re buying a tool that works.
