I once owned a P239 DA/SA and and sent it to SIG for a DAK conversion and liked it very much. I'm a fan of one kind of trigger pull and have gradually eliminated all DA/SA guns from my collection.

Disassemble the DA/SA model as described in various videos, then assemble with the DAK parts.
There is of course no need for the decocker assembly. I have, however, found that if the sear assembly and hammer are installed first as is usually shown in videos about DA/SA models, it can be very tricky to install the DAK trigger and trigger bar. I therefore adopted the practice of putting the trigger and trigger bar in before the sear and hammer assemblies. That will then require a bit of juggling to keep everything in place during the process, but doable.

I just realized the DAK parts set I bought doesn’t have a sear. I’m going to put a WTB in classifieds for one. I tried to find one but no luck. If anyone knows a place I can get one please let me know.
What sear do you have in your DA/SA model now? If it looks like this, you do not need a different one:
Prior to the introduction of the DAK mechanism, that cut in the one side of the sear wasn’t there, but then all sears with the cut, DA/SA or DAK, were the same.
Perhaps later SIG went back to the original design for some reason, but it’s easy to check.

It seems that I don't need a specific DAK sear; just a newer one with the small notch cut out on the top left like the one in sigfreud's picture on page 1.
Benner shoot me an E-mail. I'll look in my parts bag tonight and see if I have one that will work for you. If I do it's yours. I have a bunch of take-offs because I've installed SRT kits in all my guns.
