Top Gun Supply. If the barrel isn't shot out (which I doubt it is) just get a spring kit. If you feel the need you can add a mainspring

Also, consider the Sig Service Plan ($150 to replace all the springs, but also install new night sights).

Take your grips off and you'll see it. Sometimes called a hammer spring. Your example probably doesn't need a new one. If you do buy one make sure you buy the correct one for your guns style cup/seat

Wait..........you mean I have to PAY to have it rebuilt by Sig???!!!!

I sent both my Glock 19's back to Glock and they rebuilt them for free......and, they gave me 2 good used factory plastic cases to boot!!!!

But yeah, I might just do that, as the night sites on the gun are shot. Thanks for that info. Totally didn't think about sending it back to them.
