A friend asked if I knew of any trigger improvements for the SW40VE. He had me dry-fire his a couple of times, and while it's smooth, it's pretty heavy.
I told him I'd ask around. So, if anyone has experience with improvements, I'd appreciate any insight.

wolf springs makes all the springs you need to reduce your trigger pull. checkout http://gunsprings.com for more information.
How do you explain a dog named Sauer without first telling the story of a Puppy named Sig?

If it's anything like my S&W M&P40, the trigger will smooth out after a few hundred rounds. However I've read that S&W made the sigma trigger pull heavy intentionally for liability reasons so I'm not sure how much a break-in will help.

I recently purchased a Sigma in 9mm and the trigger was stiff (around 9.5 pounds) but I did a "Poor man's trigger job" and it works great. To do this just remove the striker spring and clip off about 5-6 coils and reinstall it. This will bring the trigger down to about 5 to 5.5 pounds and still strike the primer hard enough to fire rounds, even the hard primers that can be found in foriegn ammo. Be carefull not to clip to much off though!
Wolff Springs also makes a striker spring that will do the same thing, but I found that although it lightens the trigger to a very nice pull, the strikes on primers were lighter than I liked.
NOTE: I cant be held responsible for any damage that may be done to your gun as a result off bad amatuer gunsmithing. Do so at your own discretion.
