Just for the record, the parts kit in question is the customize-able kit. It contains no trigger group. It contains no trigger guard. It contains no pistol grip or hardware to attach one.
If I were to venture a lazy guess - the kit I bought is the recalled kit, repackaged without the bad trigger group.
I suppose, in my view, some bad parts will work even if they speed up wear and tear due to bad fitment. And some bad things will not work or will fail in the short term. The revelation that S&W recalled bad M&P lower parts kits for want of a safe trigger seems to fit neatly into my experience with their M&P lower parts kit generally. It seems a stretch to believe that S&W would field a first class lower kit with a defective trigger group. More likely, they sought maximum margin with minimum workable quality and they took a hair too much for themselves in the arrangement.
These things happen all the time. It's just a drag when the iconic American companies do it.
