Overview
This drop-in parts kit is intended to refine an M&P .45 ACP for action shooting, with components selected to produce a smoother, more consistent trigger pull and quicker reset than the factory setup. It is aimed at competitors in IDPA, USPSA, Steel Challenge, 3-gun, and similar matches, where a lighter pull and reduced over-travel can support faster, more controlled shooting. The kit includes the hard sear, Ultimate Striker Block, two sear springs, and a trigger return spring, with the option to retain the factory sear spring for a slightly heavier pull. It is not intended for duty, carry, or self-defense use, so it is best suited to range and competition pistols rather than general-purpose defensive roles.
