What are you trying to accomplish with this trigger job?

mapwd,

I have done it on a P-220, essentially the same thing. It ain't easy. If you are very mechanically inclined, are patient, and take your time, you can improve the trigger.

The sear spring is very stiff, and there are no known replacements for it. You can change the hammer spring to lighter poundage, this will help some. The main thing is to reduce sear engagement safely, slowly, and very carefully. The sear face and corresponding hammer hooks need to be well polished w/o altering the engagement angle.

It ain't easy. You may be better of sending it to a pro.
