M&P 9/40 Sear

Does anyone know where I can find an OEM M&P sear for a 9mm/40s&w/357sig? Used is fine too if anyone has one sitting around!

So the backstory to this is I recently bought a used Smith and wesson shield. It came without any of the stock pieces due to the seller looking them in a move and it came with an apex trigger installed and the seller stated that he had done a full kit. Well after pulling it all apart I have found that I think only the sear and trigger were replaced. On top of that its a 3 dot sear from apex which I believe is part of their forward set sear kit which is very clearly stated to not be used in a shield... I found that though the shield trigger is very lightweight and easy to shoot its break is very far forward and has a TON of overtravel and almost no reset, I missed the reset about 5 times in 50 rounds the other day. eventually I just started to pull my finger completely off the trigger to fire the next shot. So I am thinking I would like to get the gun back to stock, I am ordering a new "H" stamped trigger bar with shoe and spring and I am hoping to find a cheap sear. If anyone has any leads on where I can find an OEM sear that is separate of a complete sear housing that would be great!

Thanks in advance!

Also the M&P series from the shield to the full size use the same OEM sear so it doesnt have to be specific to a shield just 9mm/40s&w/357sig and it can be used. If you have these parts sitting around collecting dust in a parts bin feel free to PM me and I would love to talk with you about them!
 
I probably once did but I either cleaned them out or put the stock parts in the box when sold so the buyer could swap back if he/she wanted.

FYI it might be worth calling and asking S&W themselves.
 
So just an update, today i contacted apex and they confirmed that the sear is their forward set sear and should NOT be in a shield. They were shocked that that is the only part of the kit in the gun since they do not sell that sear alone as it only works in conjunction with the complete kit and only for full size or compact m&p's not the shield. They strongly recommended either ordering their sear for the shield, or finding a stock sear. they also strongly recommended me trashing the three dot sear incorrectly installed that the gun came with.
