I copied this from my post in a different thread. I just want to pass on some great info.

UPDATE!!!

Two weeks to the day I have my P250 back. Had them adjust the slide (slide was closing when I insert a full mag) and install the short trigger.

The short trigger was not the drastic change I expected. I appears that it shortened the travel by 1/4". Not much but every little bit helps when you have small hands. I will get it to the range this weekend and give more feedback.

I also want to say that I am VERY happy with the service at Sig. I sent the gun back with out the case (was CCWing the Sig the day I got fed up and shipped it out) and they put it in a new blue case, newer than the one that I bought it in. They also sent back the original trigger. To top it all off they did it at NO CHARGE!!!!! Before I sent it back, I talked to the rep on the phone he said the trigger installed was $79. Sig, if you are reading this, the P250 will not be my last Sig purchase.

I purchased the short trigger for my 45. compact and installed it myself Scared I thought it was going to be difficult since Sig suggest having a gunsmith doing the install. It turned out very easy once I figured out how to get the old one out. I have small hands so any little bit helps. I have to say that it has helped with trigger control. I am still thinking about purchasing a compact frame in small to see it it helps. I am glad that your experience with Sig was good. This is not my first pistol, but it is my first Sig Sauer. I own a Kimber 1911 and a Kahr P9 but it is my first DA only pistol. I thought the DA trigger was going to take some time to get used to. The trigger was very easy to manage and with some hours of dry fire practice I can say that the DA trigger is very smooth and easy to control. I am also going to purchase an exchange kit for 9mm for target practice, hope to save some money on Ammo that way. Thanks for the feedback on your experience

How'd that work out for you?

I purchased a small grip for my friend's P250c who has very small and arthritic hands. She loves it, and quite frankly I liked it so much I just ordered 1 for myself and my wife. I also wanted to install the short trigger - but have hesitated because of the spring removal/installation description. I am waiting for Robert Burke's (Aenimated1) trigger modification which I have previously used and found excellent. It maintains the DAO but shortens the trigger pull enough to make my poor surgically altered right trigger finger more useful.

OK Boss, I would love to see what your thoughts on the short trigger are almost 2 years to date. Should I invest?

Thanks

I can't speak for him, but I installed the short trigger and ended up taking it back out. The main reason is because, for me, the end of the trigger was too pointed and I felt like it was poking me.

Something to remember about it is that it does not do anything to reduce the length of the pull or travel. It is simply not as thick as the standard trigger, so it "shortens" the distance to the front of the trigger - the back of the trigger travels just as far as it always did. For me, the small size grip module accomplished this better and more comfortably than the short trigger.

Thanks Rably. That was a very descriptive assessment and helpful. I like the way my gun feels now and if trigger travel distance is not affected I think I will pass.

I was wondering about that. The short triggers on the Classic Series Sigs seem to poke into the bottom of my trigger finger and the P250 short trigger seemed to look the same. I was thinking about getting a short trigger and doing some odd combinations on grip frames and triggers after reading about a guy who said he liked the P250 with a large frame and the short trigger. I like the feel of the large frame but I don't care for where my trigger finger falls with that particular frame. I found a guy selling a P250 short trigger and ordered it but haven't received it yet. Hopefully, I'll get it soon and can try it out for myself.
