In your situation I would separate the upper and lower. Take the lower and dry fire it at least 1000 times catching the hammer with the palm of your hand. This will smooth the parts without removing the surface hardening. Disassemble and clean the fire control parts, install your JP yellow spring, apply moly lube spray or moly grease then reinstall. You will have a much smoother trigger.
+1 take it from me I tried the polishing thing and now I don't like the trigger very much. Its a light trigger pull but now its hard to feel the first and second stage. And there is no way to go back once you do it. I would just get a Timney or get someone who does them. I think Dtech does...Jason
