On Tuesday I ordered a short trigger (in nickle), two mags and trijicons from Top Gun Supply. they showed up today. Anyone have any idea how to install the trigger?
Top Gun also sells the Sig armorers dvd

It shows you how to completly strip both the stamped slide and the milled slide "P" Sigs down to the last spring.
To install the trigger you have to push out the take down lever. It pushes out from right to left. As you are pushing the lever from the right side, twist and pull the lever clockwise and it will come out.
After you pull the lever out, take out the locking insert. Make sure the hammer is down (de-cocked) or the insert will not come out.
Once the insert is out, you'll see the trigger pivot pin. You can push the pin out and remove the old trigger and install the new one. Make sure that you make note of how the slide catch lever and trigger bar are positioned for putting the trigger pivot pin back in.
When re-installing the locking insert, make sure the slot in the end of the trigger pivot pin is facing the left side of the gun and that the slot in positioned sideways. Also make sure that the end of the slide catch spring is in the hole of the locking insert.
There are two notches in the trigger pivot pin that the locking insert slides in to. The notches should be facing to the rear of the gun. If the locking insert doesn't want to drop in, slightly turn the pivot pin to the right and left until the locking insert drops into the notches of the trigger pivot pin. Also make sure that the slide catch lever is sitting against the side of the frame of the gun. Sometimes it helps to turn the gun sideways so that the slide catch lever doesn't move and get in the way when you are putting the locking insert back into the gun.
Once the insert is back in the gun, push the take down lever back into the gun. There is a notch in the end of the lever that goes in first. Make sure that the notch is positioned facing the bottom of the gun so the take down lever can be pushed over the slide catch spring. You'll see the edge of the sldie catch spring when you look into the hole that the take down lever pushes into. Push and twist the lever back into position.
I put a dab of grease on the end of the take down lever to make it easier to re-install.
I posted this from memory so I hope I didn't forget anything. It's not too hard to do if you are used to breaking down guns.
Hope this helps. Good luck
