Hey I was just wondering if this is normal wear for a ssae hammer after only like 100 rounds.  I'm sorry if this is the wrong place for this I'm new. http://postimg.org/image/eoi15pj73/

I have about 200 through mine and it doesn't look like that. Where did you buy it? Better pictures of the Trigger group?

Is it just me or does it not look centered in the receiver?

Yeah it does look tilted. I had that issue with mine, but it was only before getting through both sides of the receiver.

I bought it from primary arms.  The tilting may have been the picture.  Here is another one.   http://postimg.org/image/4uckktvc3/4ccd12b4/

I mean is there anything that I could have done wrong in a trigger install?  The spring is going the right way on the hammer and I used the pins that came with the ssae.  Its in a PSA lower and its a spikes LPK.

Your trigger installation is correct.

I have similar wear, but it's on the left side of the hammer after 300+ rounds on Noveske.
Last week I installed SSAE on Armalite rifle, after 50 rounds there no wear of the paint.

The wear is normal. Lube the bottom of carrier and top of hammer with Super Lube or any lubricant that works best for you.

Does you camera have a macro setting (little flower) on it?  Could you try to get better lighting and a clearer photo as it is really hard to see anything.

Sorry, I can't see any impact wearing to the hammer (bad photo's), but only the light scuffing to the hammer contact pad surface parkerizing where the back of the carrier cocks the hammer back down by moving rearward against it during the cycle.

Simply, unless you start to see impact denting damage to metal surface, surface parkerizing wear is just normal wear.

As for the Parkerizing only being scrapped off on one, side, could be a hammer problem with the center line of the channel not drilled 90* to the contact pad face, the lower receiver pin channels slightly off, or just the back edge of the carrier that cocks the hammer down now square (all really a mute point, since this side wear is semi normal anyways due to the allow slop in the system).
