Apex Trigger for Sig 320s

Tuesday, March 14th, 2017

Reduces weight by 2 pounds. I’m guessing the aftermarket parts for the 320s are going to expand with the Army’s adoption of them.

ERMAGERD S&W GOES AFTER APEX

Tuesday, December 22nd, 2015

Earlier today, that was the general tone on the gunny internet. Supposedly, they were sending a cease and desist to Apex on selling their fine aftermarket M&P parts. Once the full letter was revealed, it seems S&W took issue with Apex selling one of their modified guns and calling it a S&W: The Brownells Dream […]

Want to know what you want them to make for the Smith and Wesson M&P line of pistols. My vote is for a 22LR conversion kit.

DIY Glock: Lower success

Thursday, January 30th, 2020

Mentioned I was building a Glock from the ground up, mostly because it’s cool to select your own parts and also to learn something. Assembled parts after I installed the trigger: (lol @ Vickers professional gunsmith warning) Anyhoo, it’s fairly easy to do. Just watch this video. The slide lock spring is like the AR-15’s […]

Worth every penny

Wednesday, May 24th, 2017

I have the Apex Tactical Armorer’s Block. It works on both Glocks and M&Ps. ShootingIllustrated has a write up here. I used mine extensively when I was installing various Apex trigger upgrades to the Morrissey.

April fools

Saturday, April 1st, 2017

The one day of the year where people are aware that not every thing on the internet is true. I mulled over a few different ideas such as announcing I was the new content editor and internety headline writer for TTAG. But I never really got that into it. But other people did. Here’s some […]

Brownells Dream Gun Magnificent Engraved Bergmann Pistols

By the time I get to Arizona

Monday, December 12th, 2016

They’re leaving Cali and headed to America. Arizona, specifically. Also, they are now selling threaded barrels: I’m fan of Apex products and have their triggers and other parts on all of my M&Ps, except one. I like to keep a stock gun around for some reason.

Apex upgraded triggers for Glock pistols. I do like my Apex triggers.

Range day notes

Sunday, October 2nd, 2016

Went out to do some shooty stuff today. A while back, I mentioned converting 15 round M&P mags to 17 round. I’ve no run each of magazines twice. In that time, there was one failure to feed. Obviously, not enough rounds through them to draw any conclusions. But I think they’ll make fine range only […]

Deal Alert

Tuesday, August 9th, 2016

Free shipping from Apex Tactical. Do recommend. I have five various M&P pistols and only one (the M&P22) don’t have something from Apex in them.

One weird trick to improve your shooting and get shots on target

Saturday, August 6th, 2016

For the last couple of years, I’ve been a terrible shot. Well, with handguns. I could still shoot rifles well but my handgun targets were embarrassing. Turns out, getting my eyes checked seem to do the trick. I now wear glasses and can actually make out both the front and rear sight. Also, you should […]

918 Makarov Glock 42 Everybody is into red dots: Glock MOS Pistols Trigger warning. A couple of weeks ago, I installed a couple of Apex triggers on some M&Ps. Hope to get them to the range soon.

Customer service

Monday, June 27th, 2016

While at the NRA annual meeting, I checked out the Apex Tactical booth. Paul said he’d send me some goodies. Sure enough, a bit later I received in the mail a Duty/Carry Flat-Faced Action Enhancement Trigger & Kit for the M&P shield and a Forward Set Sear & Trigger Kit with a flat-faced trigger for […]

Apex has a new flat faced trigger and a machined sear for M&Ps S&W releasing a suppressor ready M&P22. I just put a P22 thread on mine. Smith & Wesson M&P9 ultimate tactical edition. And a discussion of red dot sights. Mine isn’t an ultimate tactical but I have the long barreled Pro series with […]

Honestly, never had that happen

Wednesday, October 22nd, 2014

But Apex has shorter mag base pads for the M&P because reasons.

Making the switch

Wednesday, March 12th, 2014

Again. I have carried all manner of different guns. Different sizes, different methods. And I’ve written about most of them. I’ve changed methods because dressing for work changed. I’ve changed because something neat struck my fancy. I’ve changed because I realized that a 45 isn’t that much better than a 9mm. I’ve changed because I […]

Five Gun Reviews In Under One Minute

Thursday, January 30th, 2014

For those in a hurry: On the M&PC, since he’s picking on my favorite flavor of Kool-Aid, he’s right about the trigger. I tend to deck mine out with Apex trigger parts, particularly the RAM. As to its size, it’s not meant to be a duty gun.

Almost the pinnacle of Kool Aid drinking

Tuesday, August 20th, 2013

I have a set. Going for the full house: Yes, I went and added a Smith and Wesson M&P22 to the kool aid pitcher. Initial impressions (bear in mind I haven’t shot it yet): Good: Ergonomically like the other M&Ps I have Upped magazine capacity to 12, from the original 10 Did I mention it […]

New from Smith and Wesson: M&P C.O.R.E.

Wednesday, November 7th, 2012

Competition Optics Ready Equipment. It’s ready to mount red-dots to. Also, they’ve raised the iron sights so they can be used. Also, this: For improved accuracy and precise shot placement during competition, the M&P C.O.R.E. pistols are standard with a Performance Center sear. The specialized sear allows for a crisp 4.5 pound trigger pull along […]

For Buy a Gun Day, I snagged a new S&W M&P9C. Now, I’m a cool kid times two: I’ve dropped in the Apex Reset Assist Mechanism and the Apex Hard Sear. So it now has an identical trigger to its bigger brother, seen here: And one more comparison shot to show the size difference: The […]

Wait, where’s the 1911?

Monday, April 9th, 2012

Why the Glock and not the M&P? Not sure that the M&P is inherently less accurate. I’m leaning toward it being that people who find them less accurate are used to shooting Glocks. I’m less accurate with my M&P than with my Glock but when LaughingDog shot it, it was a ringer. Meanwhile, why the […]

Yes, they should

Monday, March 12th, 2012

Another Koolaid drinker: Smith & Wesson should just cut a deal with Apex to put their triggers and sears in every M&P.

On the M&P trigger

Wednesday, March 7th, 2012

Nick: the owner of Apex Tactical triggers wouldn’t be driving around in a Ferrari 458 Italia if the M&P’s trigger had one-tenth of the smoothness of the Italian sports car’s go-pedal. The issue with the M&P factory trigger isn’t its smoothness. Its as smooth as other polymer-framed, striker-fired pistols. The issue is it’s lack of […]

Very Cool

Wednesday, January 11th, 2012

The Apex Tactical Specialties Limited M&P. I like it. I may switch from the RAM and hard sear to the Forward Set Sear and Trigger, since it seems to be the rage these days.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
