So I just got a brand spanking new SIG p938 Nightmare. You all are going to hate me because I got it for the awesome low price of $411.50 thanks to a friend who now works at SIG and didn't have enough extra money to use all his employee discounts for himself.
The safety was stiff but that is to be expected on a new gun. After about 250 rounds and me working it a bit, it is much better. No malfunctions so far and no cleaning done yet.
Anyway, the gun shoots great with one exception. The trigger. Since the trigger is much more weight than I am used to, all my shots pull to the left.
I am apparently rather used to my SR9c's 5.5lb trigger. The trigger range for the P938 is 7.5-8.5lbs, which is strikingly more than my SR9c. I have no problems carrying my 1911 cocked and locked which has a much lighter trigger (and way less travel). So I am looking to reduce the trigger pull weight. I've seen that you can get reduced power hammer springs (Galloway precision sells them but they are OOS currently). However I have also seen videos that suggest that you need to disassemble damn near the whole gun just to remove this spring (it is effectively the mainspring that a 1911 has).
Has anyone done this? And if so, what did you do? Did you have to disassemble everything?
I'm going to call the custom shop Monday but I wanted to know if anyone has done this on their own.
Oh and the gun came with the flush fit 6 round mag, which is not usable to me since my pinky has nothing to grip. The gun is fully concealable in my pocket with the extended mag (seen below) so I really have no need for it.
And now for a pic because pics are awesome.
