Trigger reset

guipago · 05-24-2002, 02:26 PM

Can anyone tell me how the trigger reset of the Sigs compare to the H&K match trigger reset which is looong, I'm getting a 9mm either a H&K Custom sport or a p226 so far it's a dead heat between the two, havn't handled of fired a Sig yet only spoken to those who have, so I will have fire one before the final decision is made, thanks.

The match trigger in my Expert resets quicker (shorter?) than either my P220 or P225. I don't have the means or ability to measure the difference, but is is discernable.

The new SIGS have a much stronger trigger return spring. They can not be installed on the older models UNLESS you change the RIGHT grip panel.

Sir, I thought the spring under the grip was the trigger bar spring.

Does that spring, which in the older SIGs is a single strand vs coiled, reset the trigger?

Thank you

Yes. The trigger bar spring does 2 things: It acts as a trigger reset spring to push the trigger forward and it pushes the trigger bar up and keeps it in contact with the firing components.

The early springs are an "L" shape, the later ones are similar except they have a single coil in the middle. This change was made because the old style springs have a tendency to break. The coil allows the spring to bend with less stress on the metal.
