Now Available – Apex Tactical Specialties S&W M&P Shield Flat Faced Trigger

By on September 10, 2015 in EDC, Guns

Apex Tactical teased the arrival of their flat faced trigger for the S&W M&P Shield late last month and now the wait is over. The trigger is available at Brownells along with Apex’s other excellent action enhancing parts for the popular concealed carry gun.

If you are wondering why you might consider a flat faced trigger, the answer is simple. The flat face gives consistent trigger feel across the entire height of the trigger face. It can make the trigger actually feel lighter thanks to the increased leverage that the trigger finger can exert when placed lower on the trigger face.

Check out the new Apex Tactical Specialties S&W M&P Shield Flat Faced Trigger.

SIONICS Weapon System Launched New Site – a Deal and a Tease

By on September 10, 2015 in Guns

SIONICS Weapon Systems has a new website that shows off their complete rifle, uppers, barrels and other AR-15 accessories better than ever. They are offering 5% off sitewide to celebrate the new site’s launch. There is no coupon necessary.

Whenever a company rolls out a new site, it is a good idea to do a bit of exploring. You never know what you are going to turn up. In this case, I found reference to a new set of aluminum sights that SIONICS is developing. With SIONICS’ reputation for quality and value, that can’t be a bad thing!
