Flat-Faced Forward Set Trigger Kit for Polymer Frame M&P M2.0

This Flat-Faced Forward Set Trigger Kit for Polymer Frame M&P M2.0 is a drop-in replacement system designed to reduce trigger travel and reset distance while offering adjustable pull weight. It addresses the factory trigger’s long take-up, heavy pull, and inconsistent break by replacing the trigger body and using selected springs to achieve a cleaner, shorter stroke. The forward-set sear geometry reduces pre-travel by approximately 40%, and the flat face provides a consistent finger placement for repeatable shooting.

FAQ

Does this kit work with the M&P M2.0 Safety Recall pistols?

Yes. This kit is compatible with all M&P M2.0 polymer frames, including those affected by the safety recall. The sear geometry is unchanged from the factory design.

Can I use this kit for concealed carry?

Yes. The supplied springs allow you to set pull weight within duty/carry range. Apex drop-testing confirms safe operation across all configurations.
