    Yep, I am aware. As the article points out this was addressed before the department issued them officially. These are also still not available to the general public. It's a much bigger issue when you have dumped thousands of these into the distribution channel, that didn't happen with the Glock cited.

    For Sig to have a fix available immediately upon "discovery" of this issue indicates they knew of the issue and decided not to announce a recall until someone else discovered it. Apparently, sales trumped safety.

    Not sure but as has been stated the test used was above and beyond the current requirements for safety. All manufacturers have had issues. Seems everyone forgets that and wants to jump all over SIG

    Not disputing that and also not disputing that Sig makes quality guns. Just pointing out: For Sig to have a fix available immediately upon "discovery" of this issue indicates they knew of the issue and decided not to announce a recall until someone else discovered it.

    so, the weight of the trigger is what they are saying is an issue. But won't the springs also be a factor?
    It is the mass of the trigger vs the spring is it not? Plus any friction from the sear contact , correct?
    I would expect MORE variation from spring to spring then from weight of one trigger to the next.
    I am by no means an sig expert , not even close but the Sig (don't recall the model) my friend let me try has a VERY light first stage to the 2 stage trigger.

    Exactly, so you install a spring with 5% more stiffness, and mill out the back of the trigger...

    Problem likely solved.
