This is the proper forum to use for troubleshooting, gunsmithing and refinishing questions.
If you have a problem with your pistol, this is the proper forum to ask for help.
Before you do post your question though, you may want to have a look in the Gunsmithing Sticky Threads sub-forum, in here. We have collected several interesting articles in there, which can probably answer a lot of your questions.

anyone used C&S trigger pull sets?

Cylinder and Slide trigger pull set

anybody use these? Are they difficult to fit for somebody who hasn't done gunsmithing work before? I was looking into cheaper ways to improve my RIA compact 1911's trigger and ran across these sets online. Any advice?

While I haven't used them myself, they've been discussed several time on this Forum with, IIRC, favorable comments. Maybe using our search engine will turn up the info you're looking for.

Cheers

I've used several with great results. Most have dropped straight in without any creep and the ones that did creep a little were easy to correct. Back in the 90's a crack developed on the hammer on my PPC 9mm and C&S replaced it with no questions asked.

No, no, no . . . you're going about it all wrong!

Just get your new gizmo and give it to her saying something like "I know you're real busy during the holidays, so I thought I'd help out by getting this gizmo - to save you the worry & bother over what to get me."

Works for me!

Cheers
