I want to get a trigger job done on my XDm 9mm. It looks like Powder River Precision Inc. and Springer Precision both sell kits. My question is, is one better than the other? Also I see the "drop-in" kits and I can either do it myself or send it to Springer and either way the same kit is used. Is it that difficult to do-it-myself or should I send it in?
Opinions? Experience?
This is an oft discussed topic. I had the same question and did both to see which I liked better.
I have installed a Springer kit (sear and bar) and a PRP match kit in my own pistols. I have shot a Canyon Creek gun. I have had PRP install a kit on two of my pistols (one of them on top of a Springer self-installed kit).
To me, the best in kit is PRP. PRP is better at tuning it than I am, probably because he's more patient. The PRP trigger is cleaner, crisper, and shorter. The best trigger I have is the PRP installed PRP safety lever and overtravel stop. I also have that in my XDm. It is a very crisp trigger for a striker fired gun.
