S&W Sigma Trigger ?

[GMG]

Can't stand the trigger !

Can anyone point me in the direction of someone that does trigger mods on this pistol. This is a .40 if it makes a difference.

I don't know the pull weight, but feels like a ton.

I haven't tried this yet but I want to when I find the time. If you do, please let me know how it goes.

The pull on mine is about the same as all the double action revolvers I've ever shot. It's exactly the same, about 9 1/2 pounds, as the S&W revolver I just sold, so it doesn't bother me particularly.

I also own the 40VE, and I find that if I think of it as a revolver, I shoot it very very well.

I have a friend who did the modification of the springs recommended on many sites, and the actual reduction in trigger pull was minimal. He ended up putting it back the way it was. There is some benefit to going in and cleaning up any rough edges left in the trigger assembly, as it can clean up some "roughness" to the pull. Mine has been smooth since I bought it, so it was unnecessary in my case.

My suggestion is just take it for what it is, and shoot it as it is made. Once you get used to it, it's not difficult to shoot accurately with. The trigger pull is intentional, since its intended use is carry and self defense, and it doesn't have an external safety.

I love mine, but as I say, I've always been a fan of revolvers, so I'm used to a harder trigger.

For my SW40VE, I deleted the pig tail spring first.
I tried the mod as the vid says using only the center of the two springs in the trigger block but the trigger return was sluggish and not positive.
So, I used a softer spring for the center spring of the two.
I also polished the metal cocking ramp where it rubs on the plastic trigger block.
I now have a fairly smooth 6 or so pound trigger pull that is easy to shoot.

The prob (rough and erratic pull) with my 9ve was the interaction between the striker and the internal guide rails which it rides in.
The guide rails: 1) were harder than the striker and 2) did not have their edges smoothed, i.e., were sharp.
The sharp edges cut into the striker as the striker wandered up and down as it was actuated.
I used a stone to break the edges of the rails and to smooth the gouges in the sides of the striker tang.
Problem solved. As noted, the trigger is stiff by design, which is fine for me.
Now it's smooth and pleasurable to shoot.
