My S&W Shield Performance Center has what could be the best factory trigger every produced. I have had dozens of people dry fire it and they are all shocked at how good it is, most were convinced I had put in some kind of aftermarket kit into it. It has very little take up, an unbelievably clean and crisp break, no sponginess whatsoever, and very little movement after the break. Even the reset is short and very crisp. Everyone is convinced the trigger weight is around 4lbs even or just a bit under, but my Lyman digital rates it about 5.35lbs. I am not sure who built this gun at S&W but they need to be promoted. On a side note I have 3 other Shields, two with Apex trigger kits, and none of them have this good of trigger. Not even my M2.0 Shield.
