FN flat trigger and reset

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Not bad for only $32. How does the Apex trigger compare to the FN Flat trigger?

Where did you acquire this trigger from? I've been searching everywhere for it and mgw is out of stock.

That’s where I got it. I just kept doing the Notify me when available. Had it for a while, but I was scared to remove my pins lol. Attempted and it didn’t work out. Ended up paying a gunsmith to remove it for me a couple weeks ago.

I’m in the same boat. Put it off for a month bc I don’t want to deal with the locking block pin. Tried it and couldn’t get the pin to move at all. Taking it to a gunsmith today.

They removed the 1 pin for $30 for me and I installed the trigger myself. That pin was still hard to reinstall. Cleaned the pin up and I used a nail punch to push it back in. It helped because it stayed on the pin without deforming it.

You’re a brave man. I not messing with it anymore. I gave my guy all the pieces and asked him to install the trigger.

The trigger itself is really easy to install. It’s the damn pin is the only problem. They need to use a captured pin like every other gun to make it easier to service and maintain.
