I sent my MP45 to S&W for the "M&P Pistol Action Package" and...

I can't tell the difference.

The "M&P Pistol Action Package" is described here: http://www.smith-wesson.com/webapp/w...ionId=11522#ep

It says it will get a "Tuned Action" and they will "Install Performance Center Sear."

Is it possible they forgot to work on mine and sent it back without the special sear? Is there a visual check to determine what sear I have?

Have you tried firing and consciously resetting the trigger to see if there is a difference?

Did you measure the weight and reset of the gun before you sent it away?

How much pistol shooting have you done in the past?

How long was the gun at Smith? It's hard to "compare" two triggers weeks apart.

I'd be curious to know if there is a visual indicator of which sear is in the gun as well.

Did they send the original sear back with the gun? That would be very important to me.

Did they polish the feedramp on your pistol?

I should think the trigger should be noticeably better, both the release and reset. Slightly lighter and crisper on the release and more positive and controllable on the reset.

...they sent me back a Glock!

If memory serves, the standard sear is MIM and is greyish silver. I've never found out of the PC sear is steel, but I'm fairly certain it's coated and has a bronzeish color to it.

Scientific, I know, but it's better than a poke in the eye.

FWIW, measured pull weights for the M&Ps I've worked on have been in the 7-8lb range, while the PC sears I've seen are down around 5lb.
