Trigger Job on an M&P 9

[ALby320]

Hi everyone, just wondering if anyone can tell me who does good work on trigger jobs with M&P9's ? I live in Brockton so somewhere close to there would be optimal but I will travel if need be. Thanks in advance for any help, have been reading this forum for a little bit now and have found lots of useful information.

He is a NES member too

+1 for Greg Derr

Derr & LaRocca do a great job but I prefer the APEX trigger myself (I have one of each BTW).

Greg Derr just did the M&P I won here from the Thanksgiving drawing.

+1 for Greg Derr. He did my M&P9. Much better than the MA 10lb trigger.

I've had 6 guns done by Lou @ business end customs, 2 of them were m&p 9's.

Lou does great work, and he's a great guy to deal with. Very easy going and accomodating. He has a very quick turn around time and some of the best prices around. His cerakote/duracote work is also top notch!

www.businessendcustoms.com you won't be dissappointed!

Dan Burwell in PA (if you are out that way) is pretty good.

Just a little info. Yes I still do many M&P's. The cost has not gone up $75 for either a carry trigger or a competition trigger. This includes all work and parts. I also test fire each gun. There is a $10 fee for test ammo if you do not provide it. This also comes with my 30 day " Make it a bit lighter Greg" guarantee. What this means is that after the work if it is not light enough for your purposes, I will lighten it up for free. As always I stand behind my work for a year. I think this is still the best deal around. Cheaper and better than any drop in anything. I also am more than happy talk about any special needs you may have like sights and grips.

Greg Derr does excellent work... $75 for my M&P9C... trigger is 5#and smooooth, he will also do 3# if you choose.

I will be having him do mine soon. What did he reduce it to as far as pounds?

5# for me on both M&Ps, per my request and after a bit of discussion with Greg.

 

[FrugalFannie]

4.5# from Greg Derr on my 9c and 40c. Similar on my Model 60. Love them all! Greg is a good guy.

Thanks Guys. Silly question but is there really a huge noticable difference from 10 to 4.5 or 5lbs? I would bring mine to Dave as I live 5 minutes away.

 

[Len-2A Training]

Yes there is a major difference.

Additionally, he smooths out all the metal parts so that the action is butter-smooth . . . that makes even more difference in our perception of trigger pull.

Huge difference.

The biggest difference from the APEX drop in to a smith job is trigger can be tuned to your liking.

 

[Maxspeed]

sounds great guys, I will do it when the weather gets warmer and i get out to shoot again.

 

[Maxspeed]

Thanks BEC, does your competition triger job include the Apex?

 

[Business End Customs]

No Apex. Includes a Factory S&W parts..

 

[Maxspeed]

I shot my friends M&P with a trigger job yesterday. Night and day! The bullets actually went where I wanted them to go!

What does a Gunsmith do to lower trigger weight?

 

[Maxspeed]

I'm not really sure, but I just dropped mine off. The lighter trigger makes shooting it more enjoyable.

What does a Gunsmith do to lower trigger weight?

In most cases, Smiths will reduce Sear engagement or neutralize the Sear to Striker engagement angle to reduce pull weight. Others custom cut springs to achieve a lighter trigger pull.

Scott,
I was a little confused when looking to order a apex kit. Are they now all the same, or is their a MA version. Is this the right kit for a MA M&P compact. Thanks.

My M&P .40 has a Dan trigger mod in it. I love this trigger! Best striker trigger I have ever pulled.

All the packages now include the larger Sear Spring that is used in the MA guns. They also contain a small sear Spring for those without the MA Sear Housing Blocks. We decided to include both springs in every kit, so no matter what gun you have, you get the correct springs.
