Thanks for the video. I learned a tip for installing the trigger bar. If you let the bar end go down the magazine well a little, the trigger will drop into place, and then the bar will swing up into position. No need to release the top spring or remove the safety bar.
Excellent, could not have changed the trigger without the video. I fell foul of all the info of what can go wrong with reassembly. I am now very confident to take out and refit the trigger bar. I found the trigger adjustment once fitted very trixy !
You need to make a video on the sp2022 trigger install aswell.That way you'll have covered almost all the Trigger install basically every SIG model !👍😉
AC makes some phenomenal triggers recently just picked one up for my Rex zero 1t which I opted for instead of the legion 226 and after installing it out of curiosity I wanted to see what it was like on the sig and it looks like a way bigger pain in the ass. If your not changing springs ( I plan to at some point) I didn’t even have to take the grip covers off or even take the trigger bar all the way out of the gun it doesn’t have a big of a lip on the frame. First time ever taking the gun apart I had that puppy on in about 5 minutes. And the feel and performance is definitely worth the upgrade love the serrations on the front and they just look cool as hell. I think they also did a lot nicer job of hiding the screws on the arex they are visually out of sight it’s a little more difficult to adjust but I can still do it without having to remove anything or take anything apart
Nice Video, I am glad I watched it before doing the job. Especially nice comments and video on removal and installation of the trigger bar. Only suggestion would have been to explain the adjustments on the trigger and that adjustment of the pre-travel mean taking it apart, making the adjustment, assembly and test.
Thanks for your very informative and detailed vids. I did that install and made those adjustments. Getting to the pre travel screw was impossible without having to remove the trigger bar assembly. After going back and forth this way I thought I finally had it adjusted just right. BUT of course nothing is easy. Now my manual safety WILL NOT engage. I'm assuming I have to back off my pre travel screw more to get it to function?
Figured these would come out for the P365 as soon as I installed the flat trigger!😞 now I'm thinking I like the look of this one better!!! Can I trade mine in?? 😆
To get the trigger bar in, I just ended up pulling out the sear, sear spring and trigger. Much easier that way, just a bit finicky to get the sear back in.
Great video. Any harm in just filing down the top dowel pin? I found it pretty difficult to adjust once the trigger was installed. Then i threw loctite on each set screw
Would you mind elaborating on the benefits of the purple seer spring? I also purchased the Armory craft spring kit but the skeleton hammer was out of stock. Can I still make adjustments to my springs using the stock hammer?
CavemenBros absolutely! Once you get a new hammer just make sure it’s to your liking still. If not switch to a different spring. No problem.The purple sear spring is a lighter spring therefore it reduces trigger pull weight.
Need advice/help. Would it be better to use a Sig Sauer SRT Kit or an Armory Craft SRT kit?? Not sure but I’m having issues when firing my gun, sometimes my gun will fire and sometimes it doesn’t. The mechanics seem to function but sometimes it doesn’t go bang. I did a complete upgrade on my 2020 Sig Sauer P226 Navy. Armory Craft SRT kit, Armory Craft skeleton hammer, Armory Craft skeleton flat double adjustable trigger, Armory Craft super strut, Armory Craft hammer strut spring and recoil spring (red color spring for both), Armory Craft solid stainless steel guide rod, and purple sear spring. I’m pretty sure I’ve installed everything correctly. Not sure if it’s the safety lever that came in the kit or the adjustable trigger or something else. I’ve adjusted the trigger since then but haven’t had a chance to go to the range to see if the same issue remains. Any ideas ??
By “sometimes not fire” are we talking about light primer strikes or are we talking about a mechanical issue causing the mechanics not to operate properly?
@@SigGuy Thanks for replying. The mechanics seems to work. I pull the trigger than the hammer goes back then strikes forward but no bang. It would be ok after a few rounds then it would not shoot a round. The hammer goes back and strikes forward but no bang. Maybe light hammer strikes but not sure. I tried the pencil/pen test to see if it’s my firing pin spring but it shoots the pen up but not as hard as my other pistols. I was thinking maybe the springs are too weak or my trigger was adjusted to far back maybe. But then why would it shoot at first then not. But I adjusted further out have to go to the range and try it again
@@violater247 I would suggest putting a much heavier spring in and then trying that. Bring all your springs with you and if that one works flawless then put the next lighter one in. Process of elimination.
Hello, what is the reason you have the Armory Craft RED hammer spring installed and not the yellow one? Is it just personal feeling or has the yellow one ever failed to ignite the primer? Kind regards
Reliability. Never had a problem with the yellow spring either though. I shoot mostly Winchester small pistol primers though. Those have a thinner cup than primers such as CCI. Red will be reliably for everything as yellow might not be for CCI. You’ve just got to experiment yourself and determine what works best for you.
@@SigGuy So I was on a range today and was firing S&B 7.5g 9x19mm Luger ammo with my P226 Legion with the RED/Purple setup. I fired 100 rounds and I got 3 fails to ignite the priming mixture. All of these were on the SA mode. I saw your video on the Ultimate master spring tuning kit and I think if I put just the Green spring I should be fine. Kind regards
hello, I want a curved trigger installed on p226 legion Sao that has a flat trigger on it, ( I don't like the flat trigger) do you know if sig sales the curved trigger for it? and would you happen to know the part number? thanks
I ordered this Trigger and It does not have the same two allen locations, both my adjustments are on the front, I do not have the one in the middle of the trigger. I have it installed and it feels great, however you cannot make adjustments once it is completely assembled. and i cannot find anyting on how to properly adjust it ;)
This video is an old video and used the previous version (different screw locations) trigger. Part of the reason for the chance was to make it look MUCH better.
Depends which model. There are AC trigger for German models. Make sure you read the product description on the website. It will specify if it does or not.
@@SigGuy thank you. Gonna order one tomorrow. Is there a video anywhere to show you the screw adjustments that need to be made after install? I’ve never installed an adjustable trigger before lol
Jeff check out the video I posted 2 weeks ago. Classic trigger replacement. I include the adjustment at the end of the video. Thanks for your support sir.
Some of these pistols do not get shot. Used for videos and tutorials. Its a lot easier to make videos without all the grease and lube! Thank you for your suggestion though.

Just installed mine and I'm loving it
Correct. It’s best to leave some pre and post travel so that everything works properly.
Awesome work. Great video.
Nice job ERIC! MC Petersen from FB here

I have to do the same sometimes depending on which kit is in the pistol. Nice work bud.
Hi Sig Guy - GREAT Video Series. Do you have one for the install of the sear spring for the P239?
Thanks,
Attila
Great video. Any harm in just filing down the top dowel pin? I found it pretty difficult to adjust once the trigger was installed. Then i threw loctite on each set screw
If you are referring to the green tip no harm at all.
If the overtravel screw is not adjusted correctly, can it cause light primer strikes?
Is this the same way to install the trigger for the SP2022?
Would you mind elaborating on the benefits of the purple seer spring? I also purchased the Armory craft spring kit but the skeleton hammer was out of stock. Can I still make adjustments to my springs using the stock hammer?

What grips are those?

Hi. That green handled punch looks like it would be very comfortable to use. Is there a brandname and/or location where I can pick one up? Thanks!

Looking forward to the install and adjustment video of this trigger.
Will it also work on the M17 Bravo?
Chad Walton not that specific trigger in the video. The P320 adjustable trigger is being released feb 1st.
@@SigGuy
Yes thank you. Will you be doing an install on the 320
Chad Walton yes I will in a couple weeks when the triggers are available for retail.
Also there are 320
complete disassembly and reassembly videos on here of you haven’t seen them.
Are you going to do a video for the Armory Craft Dual Adjustable trigger for the P320 X5 Legion?
Jay Townsend yes sir. Install and adjustment.
Great, I will be ordering mine on Feb. 1st, look forward to the video on the adjustments.

I’m not sure if Sig sells one but I have them on the website. Temporarily out of stock at the moment though. Sigguy.Com
Is the installation for 226 Legion SAO any different than the DA/SA?
For the most part. Only difference is the manual safety. I have a video on that as well.
I ordered this Trigger and It does not have the same two allen locations, both my adjustments are on the front, I do not have the one in the middle of the trigger.

Depends which model. There are AC trigger for German models. Make sure you read the product description on the website. It will specify if it does or not.
Will this trigger shoe work on a 226 legion?
Yea sir. There is a trigger for DASA and a different trigger for SAO. I have both on my website. Sigguy.Com
@@SigGuy thank you. Gonna order one tomorrow. Is there a video anywhere to show you the screw adjustments that need to be made after install? I’ve never installed an adjustable trigger before lol
Can you do a video on adjusting the trigger?
I second that. I’m having issues with the double action on my p225a1 not resetting. Don’t understand the adjustability of the trigger at all.
Third for adjustment video
Great video ! What Front Sight do you have on that pistol ?
Hi, Love your content. Any chance to show us trigger install "noobs" how to make the adjustments? Best, Jeff
Jeff check out the video I posted 2 weeks ago. Classic trigger replacement. I include the adjustment at the end of the video. Thanks for your support sir.
What your DA #
James Wise nothing polished inside yet. DA is 6.1 and SA is 1.8
That pistol is bone dry dude. Grease that sucker up. White lithium grease, or better yet, Super Lube synthetic with teflon.
Some of these pistols do not get shot. Used for videos and tutorials. Its a lot easier to make videos without all the grease and lube! Thank you for your suggestion though.
