The kit is designed to enhance the overall performance and functionality of my G3-4 Glock, and I was eager to put it through its paces. In this review, I’ll share my experience with the product, highlighting its pros and cons, and providing you with a comprehensive overview of its features and performance.

Installation
I decided to install the kit myself, following the manufacturer’s instructions. The process took around 20-30 minutes, depending on your level of mechanical aptitude. The kit’s components are designed to fit seamlessly into your Glock’s frame, and the installation is relatively simple. I encountered no major issues during the process, but I did need to adjust the trigger’s position slightly to get it feeling just right.
Performance
Once installed, I was eager to test the Apex Tactical Action Enhancement Kit’s performance. Here are my findings:
Pros:
- Improved Trigger Pull: The Procurator 3 Trigger System has significantly reduced the trigger pull weight, making it easier to fire the pistol. The crisp, tactile trigger response is highly responsive, and the over-travel is minimal.
- Reduced Trigger Slack: The kit’s Action Enhancement Spring Kit has eliminated the bothersome slack in the trigger, providing a more consistent and predictable trigger response.
- Increased Accuracy: The kit’s Performance Spring Package has improved the pistol’s accuracy, with minimal deviation from the target. The reduced recoil and improved trigger response make it easier to get a precise shot on target.
- Enhanced Durability: The kit’s oversized edged trigger pad provides a more secure grip, reducing the likelihood of accidental discharges.
Cons:
- Higher Cost: The Apex Tactical Action Enhancement Kit is more expensive than a standard Glock part replacement.
- Installation Limitations: The kit requires some level of mechanical aptitude, and installation may be challenging for those without experience.
- No Enhancements for Glock Accessories: The kit is specifically designed for the Glock frame, so it does not enhance the pistol’s accessories, such as the sights or magazines.
Conclusion
The Apex Tactical Action Enhancement Kit has significantly improved the overall performance of my Gen 3-4 Glock pistol. The reduced trigger pull, reduced trigger slack, and improved accuracy make it easier to get a precise shot on target. While it does come with a higher price tag and requires some level of mechanical aptitude for installation, the benefits are well worth the investment for serious handgun enthusiasts.
Rating: 4.5/5 stars
