tell me what you guys think!! i have a stainless guide rod and an 18lb guide spring on the way from Galloway Precision, but i am staying away from their trigger bar and hammer upgrade as i love the new aluminum trigger i've installed. the trigger feels and looks much better, the pull feels shorter, and the reset is quicker. i couldn't stand the factory trigger shape and feel, so i went with this one.

contact [email protected] $45 shipped. i polished it with some fine sand paper and Flitz metal polish before i installed it. although technically nothing internally was changed, the geometry of the trigger is different and it now FEELS ALOT BETTER than the factory trigger. the 2 reset clicks FEEL like they come faster, i FEEL much less stacking, and it FEELS like the overall pull is less. definately an improvement over factory, but probably not as short of a pull as the galloway products would give you.

I know this thread it almost a yr old but I am thinking about my LC9 trigger.

I don't understand how the geometry of the RTK trigger is an improvement. If you look at the position of the trigger at the point where it breaks as in this pic.

No part of the trigger face is vertical, making it difficult to pull straight back at the critical point in its travel.

Well I got the ss guide rod, the recoil springs, the hammer springs and the lifter springs from Galloway. I still can't make up my mind about the trigger.
