Bill40718 Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Accurate Iron. Mike's triggers beat the pants off of the factory trigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-ManBart Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Who does the best trigger job on the S&W M&P? How does a custom trigger job compare to the M&P Pro. It seems like a tossup between Dan Burwell and Accurate Iron (Mike Cyrwus), but there are a few other names I've seen that probably do a great job on them as well. The custom will have a little bit less takeup, a bit less overtravel, a smoother feel throughout and a lighter pull. The factory Pro trigger isn't really bad at all. I've heard a few folks say they got one that was gritty feeling, but a lot of that seems to be in the firing pin safety plunger rather than the sear/connector etc....round off the edges of the FPS plunger and it should be much better. I weighed my stock Pro, but can't recall exactly...think it was 4-4.5lbs. If you have one of the two guys above do a complete rework it'll probably be more like half of that. I know Dan says he's gotten 2.25lb triggers consistently, and I'm sure Mike can do the same. It would be hard to go wrong with either Dan or Mike.

itchy Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Dave Olhasso's work is pretty nice too. I tried Julie G's steel gun. Seiichi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Filishooter Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Kenny D at Speed Shooters Specialties I'm VERY happy with my SSS trigger job as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1911user Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Accurate Iron has done 3 M&P trigger jobs for me; very nice work! A good custom trigger job on an M&P will beat anything coming from the factory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr2e Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 (edited) i went the cheap route and didn't have mike at accurate iron do a full blown job on my pro (my mistake...). he did his best work on my .45 and 9L and they are heads above the stock and my "cheap" pro trigger. AND he is very good at answering any questions you might have and responds to e-mails! Edited October 23, 2009 by dr2e Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_Andersen Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 +4 (or is it 5?) for Accurate Iron. Mike's trigger job on my M&P Pro is fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zebp45 Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 +1 for Burwell. I have been very happy with the triggers he did both of my PROs. I also have a buddy that has had a couple of triggers done by Burwell and he also has been extremely satisfied with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MemphisMechanic Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 (edited) You do. I spent two evenings following the Trigger Job instructions on Burwell's site (google burwell trigger job) and the results were impressive. Measured at 3.5 pounds (on an unfired gun w/o any break-in!) and has about 1/32" of overtravel left, ALL THE STOCK SPRINGS, and a Glockish reset. I like my guns around 4 pounds to ease the transition back to a carry gun, so I'm hoping the extra-power striker spring from SSS brings the pull weight up a bit. However, since reshaping/stoning/polishing the sear was 90% of the difference (the other 10% in polishing the trigger bar and reshaping the firing pin plunger) I don't think it's going to make the trigger noticeably heavier.

JeffWard Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Burwell does both weight reduction, and internal over-travel. My PRO is silky, and about 3lbs (est), after 10000 rounds. I'm sure there are number of good M&P Smiths, but any and all of mine go to Dan. Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kmbr45 Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 I have to add another thumbs up for Dan Burwell. He's done both of my M&P's that I use in competition. The first was the full sized 9 and when I got the Pro the trigger was better than stock, but nothing compared to Dan's work, so he did that one as well. Great work, good guy, and he can even shoot ok too. Daniel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
