You really should be able to do this yourself, prp has a great video on how to install this. I just got it a few days ago, and shot it for the first time yesterday.

It isn't too bad. Just watch the video from PRP. I would walk-through with the video and take your time and you should be gtg.

Got mine today, it came with two sets of springs the regular (as I understand it "reduced power") springs and then a set of blue tinted competition springs.

Can these be mixed and matched or is it recommended to use all of the regular or all of the competition based on the users end goal of trigger pull weight?

How different is the pull weight between the two sets?

And also, most of the springs came in pairs, one regular and one blue, as I mentioned, but the striker safety spring only came in blue? Is there a missing spring, or are you just supposed to reuse the factory striker safety spring?

Great looking kit by the way!

Called Daniel today at PRP. He told me the spring sets can't be interchanged to you liking and pull weight. He also mentioned about a pound difference between the two sets.

Installed late last night and everything went very well (except one little thing I'll talk about at the end).

HOLY REDUCED TRAVEL BATMAN!
That's going to take some getting used to.
In dry fire practice it's crisp, concise and smoooooth. Me likey.



Now for those of you installing yourself there's something in the video I'd like to expand upon for ease of disassembly and reassembly.

At about 5:57 he takes out the Take Down Lever.
After you get it most of the way out it feels like it's stuck and he says "Turn it upside down and wiggle it back and forth. It will come out."
What's keeping the Take Down Lever in there is the Slide Stop Spring. Right after he pulls the Take Down Lever out he shows the end of the Lever: there's a nub.
That nub is important for reassembly!

At 8:35 he again shows that nub. What you're doing is using that nub (by rotating the Lever) to push the Slide Stop Spring down to allow the Take Down Lever to pass. So like he did, start with the nub on top, and simultaneously rotate the lever clockwise while pushing it in. You can view exactly what you're doing if you look down into the Locking Block while doing it.

Understanding that little part will ease reassembly and keep you from mangling your spring like I did!
***My Slide Stop Spring hasn't been damaged beyond use but it looks like it's been chewed on.***

Well that's what I ordered and Daniel didn't seem surprised when I asked him about the two colors. Did everyone else have two sets/colors of springs?

My kit came with both sets of springs as well. What a difference it makes! I will be ordering another kit for my 5.25.

My kit has the same number on the back as yours. I got mine last week. You may want to call PRP and ask them why the difference.
