Sig Trigger

[Okiegunner]

I own a few diferrent auto loaders. Granted
my taste are a little eclectic.

MKEK Girsan Yavuz 16 (Turk made Beretta 92, carried by Turk (NATO) military

Zastava CZ-999 (Serbian made 9mm, Current contract with Iraqi army (100,000 plus thousand)

Tanfoglio Force Carry .40 ( Made in Italy by Fratelli Tanfoglio)

Sig Sauer 2340 .40/.357sig

My qestion is...The trigger on this Sig is amazing, very soft DA/SA, seems like armorer work done here. This pistol is a LEO trade from the Mass. State Police. Must have been a desk jockey, as slide is +95%, frame the same, The frame is marked "Made in Switzerland" According to Sig, the pistol was made circa 2003.

Anyhow, to the trigger. Has anyone else noticed how light, and buttery smooth the trigger action is on these guns? Is this normal (if yes, then +++Sig) if not, does anyone know if armorer work was done on these LEO Trades.

Just curious, certainly not bitching. Does anyone else have onme of these?

Thanks very much,

Gunner

I have a P229 ... in DA/SA. DA trigger is long and hard (just what I want), SA trigger is soft and smooth. (also what I want)

Shot about 500 (five hundred) rounds today with it at TDSATulsa(.com).

It's great.

Sigs have sweet triggers. I have a 2022 that I paid under 350 out the door new. First time I took it to the range I just laughed because the trigger was so sweet on a 350 gun.

The SIG 2340 and the follow on 2022 are know for the quality of their DA trigger...usually better then the Classic P-series models...it is part of what makes them a great buy in the SIG lineup.

I do not like the DA pull on the 226, it seems too long, but I am a huge fan on the 229 DA pull. The slightly smaller frame makes for a better DA pull in my opinion. It is possible that a police armorer modified your sig, but more likely than not the DA pull came from the factory like that. Sigs are world famous for being easy to shoot and as a result very accurate.

Try tacops trigger, it will set new standard for ya.

SIGs have among the best if not best DA/SA triggers out of the box IMO. I own more than a few and they all have excellent triggers.

When I tried my Sons' brand new CZ SP01 I was pretty shocked how bad that trigger was in comparison as are other CZs I have tried and it showed in his shooting which improved dramatically when I handed him my P226 to try.

My 1996 vintage German P226 has probably the best trigger out of my SIGs though the others are very close.

Have to agree. I have owned and shot a number of pistols and keep coming back to SIG's. Owned a SIG 226, 239 and 228. New and used. The triggers have been remarkably consistent and excellent. Just something about them.

Hope this is not a hijack...but one thing...in a DA/SA gun in SA, there is some take up, as you would expect. So, question: does the Short Reset Trigger reduce the take up??

Thanks

The Sig Pro line and the SP2022 have a different trigger feel and design than the classic P series. It has a long but smooth DA trigger that has a revolver feel to it. It then resets nicely to a SA trigger which is similar to the P series guns but have a longer reset than the P series IMHO. For some people the length of the pull in the DA mode takes some getting used to. It is exceptionally clean just long.

So when people talk about the "great feel of the classic Sig DA/SA trigger" they are not really talking about the SP2022. It has a great trigger but it is not the same as the other Sigs.

They are great but are a different animal IMHO. They were the red headed step child of the Sig line for a long time. Once the price point got to the sub $400 range they started to pick up sales.

I think they are one of the best values in semi-auto pistols in the market today.

Some but not all of it. It will never be Glock short, S&W 3rd Gen or Walther PPQ short but shorter than the traditional Sig.

It doesn't directly affect the takeup, if you define takeup as the distance the trigger must move backward from rest to engaging the sear.

It only affects the distance from letoff to reset...the distance you need to let it move forward, after firing a shot, to reset the trigger.

If you have learned to only release the trigger to that reset point, the distance it needs to move back to engage the sear is reduced.

Try tacops trigger, it will set new standard for ya.

Is that a company you are referring to, or a completely different system then the SigPro we are discussing?

 

[Captain33036]

9mm.... thanks. This is what I am talking about:

"It doesn't directly affect the takeup, if you define takeup as the distance the trigger must move backward from rest to engaging the sear."

So...with respect to the above...in SA...that distance does not change with the short reset trigger, correct?

[and indeed, you would not expect the short reset trigger to do that, since that is essentially affected by the distance in DA. Just wanted to get good info on this...just in case]

Appreciate the info
