My strikers are all M&P 2.0's and Glocks. All have stock triggers. I have shot pistols with APX setups but just don't have the need to spend the money on them or think they are necessary. As others have said, no problem with stock triggers just shoot and train.
If you are playing with your pistol at the range to see how close you can get the holes together with slow fire, then play with different triggers to your heart's content.
But for a strictly defensive pistol, there is absolutely nothing wrong with the stock M&P trigger. Or just about any striker fired trigger on the market today, for that matter.
People need to learn how to shoot. Much hardware has been thrown at what is, in reality, a software problem.
I have heard a lot of Glock owners talk about the M&P trigger reset being their issue.∆∆∆THIS∆∆∆
While not directed at anyone specifically here. I laugh at the thought that a stock Glock or M&P or about any striker fired variety has to have an aftermarket trigger or it's not worthy. Start out on a DA Revolver and get mandated to DAO hammer fired autos. That will teach you to shoot or nothing will.
As far as M&PS (which are my favorite striker fired guns) I bought two when they first came out in 2007, another one for my Daughter in 2009, 2 nore for me in 2012 and this year. All 9mm or 45 and all the triggers we're great.
Don't really know why folks were complaining. Seems folks starting out on and shooting nothing but strikers really have no reason to complain about a 5-6 pound trigger.
Marketing Marketing Marketing I guess.
