LOS OSO, Calif. - Apex Tactical Specialties, Inc. (ATS) announced the pending release of their Shield Carry Kit(SCK). Specifically designed for use in the new Smith & Wesson M&P Shield, this kit joins Apex's line of drop-in products on Thursday July 12th.

"We had our first look at the Shield in St. Louis, Mo. during the NRA Show," said Randy Lee, President of Apex. "The Shield fits the need for a slim personal defense pistol that's always at the ready, and our new SCK makes this great little carry piece a much more shoot-able carry option."

The SCK comes with Apex's Fully Machined Sear, Ultimate Striker Block and Shield specific spring kit to drop the trigger pull down to the mid 5 lb range while reducing grit and crunch in the trigger pull. Other key benefits of the SCK include reduction of over travel and shortening of the reset. The SCK is designed to be a direct drop-in replacement for the factory components and requires no modification to the pistol's factory parts, simply remove the factory components and replace them with the contents of the SCK.

The SCK will retail for $89.95 and be available through our network of dealers and distributors. Online installation videos will be available at www.youtube.com/apextactical.
