Put the OEM connector back in and chalk it up to experience

 

Hi yes thanks, I actually put the dot connector in and it worked fine which convinced me that the Apex connector was the problem.. I forgot to mention that.

 

At this point, I'd also chalk-up the ApexTactical usage to experience. I've found my brief experience with ApexTac to be ~50/50.

Go with a Glock-brand minus connector if ~1/2 pound less trigger pull is desired vs. the "dot" connector.

Alternatively, do try ApexTac's suggestion to sand/polish its supplied connector as it's either no good to the OP anyway, and might actually fix it. Note, I don't understand what's going on with that double reset issue, but perhaps there's some kind of burr on it somewhere.

I liked ApexTac's J-frame spring and firing pin kit for S&W revolvers, but I had mixed results with its Glock FRE extractors.

 

Aftermarket parts always worry me.

The manufacturers simply do not have access to Glock's component variation analysis nor their geometric dimensioning and tolerancing schemes which determine part reliability and function especially when you leave the heart of dimensional bell curves.

They do not have access to OEM engineering drawings or CAD so they are guessing at everything including basic nominal dimensions.

 

Reminds me of reverse engineering.

 

I'm NOT a Glock armorer, and I don't know the exact nomenclature, but, based on your photos, it appears the connector ledge has a burr stamped into it (manufacturing flaw) for almost its entire length, which could possibly cause the "two click" reset.

 

Enhanced:

Yep. That's pretty bad. The whole thing looks pretty rough, actually.

 

Stock or Johnny Glock. For just a shoe, overwatch.

 

Accumulated losses over time = wisdom.

Something from the car industry:
bolt ons and additives don't deliver the performance promised.
3-5% HP increase, Whiter teeth and fresher breath, can never be disproven.

Everyone knows that each "performance" brand sticker on the car adds 10HP.

 

Apex for my M&P wouldn’t work. They brushed me off. Lesson learned.

 

Send back that thing! is is terrible out of spec and ask for a new kit!

 

Any tech that uses 600grit and polish in the same sentence doesn’t know metal.

 

A return has been initiated!

 

Perhaps the simplest answer is something like this:
does your gun work ( fire when trigger activated, feed cycle etc?) if answer yes change nothing.
not broke don’t fix, accept the limitations of the machine as is and run it as is, or go to a different machine that better suits your needs.
As a soldier ( since retired) they handed you a weapon and if it functioned you went to war with it.
same with cops and issued weapons
civilian shooters, would be best served by doing the same. Unlike soldiers and cops, you have the option of changing to a different gun if the one you have in hand doesn’t suit you.

 

My answer is I am sending the kits back (I bought 2) and re-installing the factory parts. Lets see if they are quick with the refund which will be part 2 of this experiment….
