Hello ladies and gentlemen.
I'm looking for a replacement trigger for my newly acquired P6 pistol. As you probably know it will not accept the standard P series short reach trigger. I have seen some pics online of custom P6 pistols with a thinner better looking trigger. Can anyone point me in the right direction to where i can find one or to who may custom cut one? Thank you.

Here's one option. If you look around here on SF, you'll find the names of a few different buisnesses that may be able to modify it to suit you.

If you haven't spent much time at Numrich (AKA Gun Parts Corporation), it tends to be a reasonably good website to go fishing in for older parts.

^^^^ The regular P225/P6 trigger is hollowed back. Not something one just shaves off to convert it to a short trigger.

OP, you might want to contact TJ's Custom Gunworks. His SIG triggers, from what I've seen online, are thinner and also free of abrupt edges (like a melt job).

I altered an old style p220 trigger;

Short of sending out for a specialty trigger job, you could also switch out mainspring. (I believe) My West German P225 shared the 24lb mainspring with P6, from the days of military ball ammo with harder primers.

I noticed an improvement w/ 20lb spring, which is what came in my 226. You may even go lighter if you test thoroughly w your ammo.

I've replaced most of the fire control parts
Srt kit and a standard P series hammer. I'm gonna have to try to replicate what you've done there. It really changes the look of the old work horse.

Yeah, it was kind of a pain but kinda fun to see how would change the trigger pull. In the end, I preferred the p6 trigger to the short trigger. Releaving the back side so the seer would trip and reset took the longest. Of course some of the length had to be removed. I can't speak to the p226 trigger.

I was on the hunt for a short reach trigger for my p225 for about 8 yrs. Checked Ebay and auction sights that sell gun parts without success and mind you I did this almost daily. I found one, new old stock at a gunshop in California of all places this past summer while visiting family in San Diego. They only had just 1 in the package. I still need 2 more. Good luck finding or modify one of the stock triggers which I might try.

I have a modified 220 short trigger in one of my P6s. I don't remember the name of the gunsmith that was modifying them though....sorry. I also converted a 229 short trigger to work in one of my P6s, but that took a fair amount of work......welding, re-drilling trigger pin hole, etc.

This is a Montage Suisse P225 I picked up a number of years ago. The seller had custom work done on it, including an action job, new sights, Robar finishes and a custom/milled solid trigger. The trigger is very nice and has a shorter reach. Unfortunately, I don’t know, and he didn’t say, who machined the trigger for him. He did say that it cost him $60.
