    I've bought a Hellcat and already want to replace the trigger. 6+lbs is a bit much for a micro compact and most of these reduce it to as little as low 4lbs. Also, I really got used to the Sig short reset triggers.

    There's a few options

    Apex Action Enhancement Trigger with sear spring and striker spring
    https://www.apextactical.com/apex-hellcat-action-enhancement-trigger-black-4

    PRP Trigger kit with trigger, sear, disconnector, striker safety, sear spring, disconnector spring, and striker safety spring
    https://powderriverprecision.com/product/prp-trigger-kit-for-the-hellcat/

    Monarch Trigger system, just the trigger and it's adjustable
    https://hyve-technologies.com/product/monarch-trigger-system-for-the-springfield-hellcat/

    MCARBO Trigger Spring kit with striker spring, sear spring, striker safety spring and stainless steel striker sleeve
    https://www.mcarbo.com/springfield-hellcat-trigger-spring-kit-stainless-steel-striker-sleeve.aspx


    I'm leaning towards the Monarch trigger because it's adjustable and the PRP spring kit. I've read a review of an owner doing this with great results. Also, like the MCARBO stainless striker sleeve, but $60 seems a bit much just for that.

    Has anyone swapped out their trigger and/or springs in their Hellcat and have a review?

    I have the monarch trigger and love it. Based on mcarbo promo material, they have me convinced to replace the striker sleeve. They literally snap it with what seems to be minimal force.
    Personally, I've never been a fan of plastic internal components. I'm going to purchase it once my military discount gets approved. Hope this helps.

    Oh, and check out True Precision. They have threaded barrels. I also plan to get a suppressor too. I'm looking at the Rugged Obsidian 9.

    Thx for the info. Did the monarch trigger reduce the pull weight and the length?

    Just went to the range and defintely want to do this.

    I got the MCarbo kit for Christmas, wow, what a difference. It’s much more enjoyable to shoot now.
