  1. G'day from Australia! I'm now having the same issue with light primer strikes with the Apex FSS and trigger kit. However, I must have put several thousand reloads through it after installing the Apex kit without any problems until a couple of months ago when the light primer strikes started. The top pic is of the new striker I've just installed, the bottom pic is of the striker I took out. You can see in the bottom pic that the striker shows evidence of hitting the striker block, in fact it has peened over the top edge on the side of the striker making it ever so slightly taller. I'm wondering if, over time, as the peened over edge got worse, it has started to contact the striker block even more and causing the light strike issue. With the FSS, the timing between moving the striker block out of the way and then releasing the striker seems very fine. I've replaced the striker tonight after 8000rds and countless dry fires (And after waiting four weeks to get one from the US!) and have also set the trigger bar gap to .008". I'm a little concerned that with such a small trigger bar gap the sear isn't moving down very far at all. It is releasing the striker every time though, even when I push the slide down on the top of the slide, so I'm assuming it's far enough. I do believe it's riding down the face of the sear though. I'll go and put a couple of hundred rounds through it tomorrow and see what happens!
