I keep my personal guns as is from the factory, no reason to change anything to try to improve the performance.

My EDC is an M&P Shield 9.
I've changed the sights to Tru Glo night sights.
I've installed the complete Apex trigger kit that replaced the factory trigger, striker block, sear, and all the springs.
The factory mags come 7 rounds (flush mount) and 8 rounds. I've updated them all with mag guts kits to 8 rounds (still flush mount) and 10 rounds (spare mags on left hip at 10:00. The new floorplate added barely 1/4" OAL).
I added rubberized talon grips to frame.
Not worried about "enhancements" in a court battle. I'd rather live to fight another day and figure it out later.

I do have a few guns that I haven't replaced or added parts from the purchase time, but I'm a tinkerer. I like customizing things to my needs and liking. I have never sold any of the guns I've acquired, I don't plan to, so resale value is not a concern.

A shield 9 is what I carry also.

I think it's biologically impossible for me to not to tweak a rifle or handgun. There's just something wired in me that can't leave good enough alone. All my handguns have at least a lightly polished trigger and upgraded sights.
As for my rifles, fuggedabouddit. Even my sidelock, percussion cap muzzleloader, I mounted a red dot on it, upgraded the ramrod, and did a trigger job on it where I filed and polished the sear, adjusted the engagement screw to reduce sear engagement, and polished the trigger surface that pushes the sear bar.
My shotguns are my most minimally modded. My Remington 870 has a new stock so I could adjust the length of pull. It's the only shotgun I have with any modofication at all.
