Considering improving the trigger on my LC9 and have been looking at the Galloway and the Saint Arms kits. Comments on either would be appreciated.

I am so glad you asked before buying it. Don't waste your money, Mine would not reset without adjusting it out to the maximum, and even then half the time I would have to flick it with my finger. I got rid of it. The internals are like the r51, very cheap, the frame holds the trigger bar and spring in place. If you open it up you will not want it anymore once you see how cheaply it's made.
The gun actually shot OK before fiddling with it, they aren't made to be taken down all the way. Nothing fits right. The gun is just cheaply made, not like a glock or kahr, just a hot mess. The trigger wobble drove me crazy, their tech told me it was normal because they were seizing under heavy use, so instead of putting in a spacer, the just left 1/8 of inch of play on it. If it shoots just leave it alone, definitely do not waste more money on it

Just keep shooting it, you'll become accustomed to the trigger. I have 2 and haven't had any trouble with them. The latest one I bought seems to have a better feel then the first. Maybe ruger improved something. Both of mine have been 100% reliable right out of the box.
Yes jimbo I believe you are correct, I bought one of the first a couple years ago, and it was like wobble city. I couldn't really even shoot it like that. I read someware that they eventually fixed it, I just had no way of knowing if they did or just said that did.
I just lost faith in it when I saw the way they built the internals, the trigger bar and spring were just so cheaply made and flimsy. I know it's an inexpensive gun but still, the LCP was made better.

I bought the gun because it fit my hand so well. It is new manufacture so if there are any improvements over the early gun you bought, gym, so be it.
I'll take the advice given by both of you and leave well enough alone hoping that burning a lot more rounds will get me used to the trigger. It could become a pleasure to shoot.
On the other hand my LCP will never be a pleasure to shoot. I have shot it enough to become proficient at close defensive range and will continue to do so but that's about it. The only thing it has going for it is conceal-ability and reliability.
