Got my (newer model, plastic) 880 out and find that I like the dime-size groupings it is mostly capable of. But not so much the heavy trigger. I just want to lighten it up from about 5 1/2 lbs to 3 1/2 ~ 4 lbs. Reading here and there and so, replace with this spring, cut that spring, but is there just a nice drop-in trigger spring (not the flat spring)? I'm not even sure of the dimension of the stock spring. One of those spring pack/kits?

or maybe this (will have to order, not carried locally):

And a trigger shoe that fits? Thanks.

You can lead a man to water, but you can't keep him from urinating in it.
