That's part of what can be so frustrating to folks. I know that I can usually reconcile myself to a given circumstance if I have a decent lock on the reasons behind it. Whether it's finding a work-around, sucking it up, or deciding that it's something I'm unwilling to put up with, it's nearly always better to KNOW.
You call up three different folks at S&W to ask about what the color-coding on their magazine springs means, you'll get 4 different answers, because the last cat will bother to admit he's not sure and will present you with two different possibilities, each of which differ from what the first two cats told you. Always annoying, when the left hand doesn't know what the right is doing, regardless of the subject.
Regarding the Apex/Bar-Sto collaboration, by all that's been posted, the focus of effort is to mitigate/eliminate the early-unlocking aspect that can create the accuracy quirks found in the 9mm barrels (which mine has; past 15yd, stuff gets weird). Worth re-reading; I know I'm gonna, now.
