Most Helpful Positive Review trigger assembly
Excellent product. Mich crisper trigger. Wish the manufacturers would put these on from tge start. Went from 6 pound pull to just over 4 which for me helped my grouping. Price was great althoigh DHL shipping is the slowest on the planet
Most Helpful Negative Review Terrible in '24 production hellcat pro
Not sure what has changed but either Apex or Springfield has made changes to their products and they are no longer compatible. I have an early hellcat with the apex kit and all is well, ~5lb pull smooth takeup and a light break. When I purchased a new hellcat pro I went straight out and bought a sec...

Big upgrade

by JeffB, Verified Owner from TX, United States Written on June 22, 2025
I was having an accuracy problem with my Hellcat and I figured out it was the heavy trigger so I ordered this trigger. It was fairly difficult to install so if you're not accustom to working on guns I suggest you take it to a gunsmith for installation. What a difference it made with my accuracy! I would say that this a 1rst requirement for upgrades and worth every penny.
Pros:
  • improves accuracy
Cons:
  • Difficult installation
Best Used for:
  • Springfield Hellcat
Would recommend: Yes

by Ken, Verified Owner from TX, United States Written on December 7, 2024
Still pretth new to shooting. The install was pretty easy to do on my own following the videos. And the improvement on the trigger pull is crisp and resets well.

A Absoulute needed upgrade for the HC Pro!

This trigger is the missing link in making the HC pro the CCW second to None!

Highly recommended!!!

Apex Trigger on Springfield Hellcat

by D, from FL, United States Written on June 25, 2024
Significantly better than the trigger that came on the Hellcat originally. Install was straightforward thanks to the fellas over at Apex. Very happy with this upgrade.

6.5lb pull

by Rooster, Verified Owner from VA, United States Written on February 21, 2024
Great improvement over the stock hellcat trigger. I installed the trigger and springs and have shot 300-350 rounds with it. It pulls right at 6.5lbs, not sure how long the break in period is but I was under the impression this trigger would be closer to 5-5.5lbs. Either way I can live with it as this is my current carry pistol and not a competition gun.
Pros:
  • good quality
  • Better than stock
Cons:
  • Not quite a 5.5lb pull
Best Used for:
  • Duty/carry
Would recommend: Yes

Apex trigger for Hellcat

by Kim Donaldson, Verified Owner from AZ, United States Written on October 19, 2023
This trigger works better than Apex says. The factory trigger pull went from 6.2 to 7.1.. After I installed the Apex trigger it went to 5 pounds 1 ounce every pull and it is much smoother. I also installed it myself. I definitely recommend this trigger. Also the price from Optics Planet was the best price I found.
Pros:
  • Lighter, more regular and smoother trigger pull
Cons:
  • None
Would recommend: Yes

Alot better!

by George, Verified Owner from OH, United States Written on August 1, 2023
The trigger that comes with the hellcat pro is pretty bad considering pretty much everything I own has an aftermarket trigger. It just felt heavy and I felt like my accuracy was decreased because of it. I decided to give this trigger a shot because I love the apex on my 19x. So far so good! Clean break, lighter pull. What more can you ask for. Install was fairly simple with a punch set and instructional video. Pretty happy with it.
Pros:
  • Lighter pull than stock trigger
Cons:
  • Not a big difference in reset length
Best Used for:
  • Hellcats and patriots
Would recommend: Yes

Watch the YouTube video for easy install

by Tyler Scott, Verified Owner from GA, United States Written on August 12, 2022
Easy install for a moderate handyman with a little patience. Loading the trigger bar into the trigger is the hardest part. Watch the Apex made videos and you can do it. It is a big improvement over factory trigger. Shorter pull, great tactile and audible reset, snoother all around. Be sure to oil as directed and do 200 round break in and you will be happy with it.
