Just keep shooting it. I've got over 2000 rounds through my 9mm sigma, and now the trigger pull is down around 8lbs....
Just practice, it gets better as you go.
The trigger does what it was designed to do.
Now, you'll run into some rocket scientists on the internet that will try to talk you into using ball point pen springs, etc., forget all that nonsense.
Shoot it and have fun. If you don't like it, sell it.

It is a great gun for the price. Yes the trigger takes some getting used to, but mine shoots anything without a hiccup. It's an inexpensive gun that works everytime. Better trigger = more money, remember you get what you pay for. You didn't pay very much for a worhhorse of a gun,IMO.
That's just really hard to believe!loose_holster_dan

Think of it as a 12 shot revolver.

Just shoot it I have 2 sw9's one is the sw9f and the other is an sw9ve the sw9f has a few thousand rounds through it the trigger is smooth now and id say half the pull of the sw9ve that only has 500 rounds through it. The sw9ve has improved a little already.

As someone who kept an SW40VE in his Cavalier as a truck gun, I'm offended by that.
I'm just spitballing here, but I seem to remember reading about a way to replace the trigger spring in a Sigma with one from a Glock. You'd have to talk to a gunsmith for specifics probably, but it was supposed to really reduce the trigger pull. Again, I'm going from memory here.

Sigmas are excellent. The trigger smooths out and lightens up. My 40VE holds 15+1rnds of "fight stopping forty", is only 21oz, thinner than glocks, has a very good grip, and shoots very accuratly with the right loads. I notice it is more accuracy picky than other guns, mine shoots 180gr around 4"s at 15yards, 135gr HST shoots an inch easily. In the 3000rnds I've put through, mine has had 0 jams and shows almost no signs of wear.
this is my truck gun
I posted a ra.nge report here about how much i actually like it. I got a used one and the trigger seemed rough to me. Now it feels no different than a revolver. I dry fired the ever loveing hell out of it ( I like to fire at the tv for a moving target feel) and i put about 500 through it. It seemed very lightly used however it is so durable i have no way of telling how many rounds were shot through it.
I love having 40 s& w with me as well.

Where to begin?
For? I think the "12 shot revolver" comment was accurate: if you can't manage a SA trigger, or even a good striker fired contraption (some folks are just more "bull in a china shoppe" than other folks.....), then hey, maybe this is the thing for you: unless I am mistaken, replicating the long heavy pull of a DA revolver, but with double the capacity was the "Raison d'être" of the Sigma ....... a hardware solution to a software problem .......
and
don't jive ..... consistant or not? Does it lighten with use or does it stay the same? How much does it lighten?
I'm thinking that if you wanted a light, smooth, consistant pull, you would not start with a Sigma ........

As the OP for this one, I asked the question of lightening the trigger pull on a S&W Sigma. I did not say I owned one or was about to purchase one.
For those who offered solutions instead of cynicism: Like; spring maintenance, firing it more, the SW Forum, and having some work done on the gun -- thanks.
