You can polish the feed ramp with steel wool. Mirror finishes are not required. The proximity of the ammunition in the magazine to the feed ramp is such that most all factory ammunition will feed reliably.

Softening the trigger requires disassembly of the weapon and smoothing of all trigger/bar contact surfaces.

Disassemble the striker spring assembly. It simply screws into the back plate, but may be difficult. I find it easier to depress the spring, grab the threaded guide-rod with soft-jaw pliars and turn the backplate.

Clip the spring 1 round at a time 'til you have the 'ideal' compromise of dependability and feel.

When you do the final re-assembly, be sure to use 'Locktite' or something similiar on the threaded part.
