3 out of 4 times,the Cylinder and Slide set worked fine out of the pkg.On one occasion,with a non-Colt frame,the sear was a bit long.

I suggest leaving the surfaces alone unless you get the reference material,study and understand,and also get proper tools.Wilson,I believe,makes a $30 sear jig.I went with the Marvel,its about$60.

Check,I believe Cyl and Slide will fit their parts for you for a reasonable fee.Try their website.

You may find,by the time you buy the refs,the tools,the parts,you can buy another Phillipino 1911 for the cost of getting your 1911 education.Its all about your priorities.

On the flip side,done right,your fire control parts will be roughly equivalent to the hi-buck custom guns.

I do not suggest going for the very light,match type trigger.There are legal issues if you ever are involved in a self defense shooting.

To have Cyl and Slide fit a "duty" trigger is probably a safe and efficient way to get a good trigger.
