One of the biggest problems I've found with the A17 trigger is it has a lot of pre-travel (movement before the sear drops the hammer) and that pre-travel is very gritty. With some VERY light sanding followed by a good polishing, I used 600, 1500 & 2000, you can help eliminate the majority of it.

But again, if it's something you've never done before, it's best you take it to a gunsmith.
Thanks for the heads up, I am familiar with this trigger, and have refined a couple on model 1911's. I hope I have the necessary stones for this trigger, (no pun intended).
