    As far as the OP's original question, the off-center hammer isn't an issue. The important thing is, the hammer still achieves full contact with the face of the firing pin.

    A few comments. Due to...

    I've had a good experience with the LTT belt. It strikes a nice balance of having both flexible and stiff portions for comfort or rigidity where you need it.

    I put one in my P6 and it made a noticeable improvement. The improvement, I would say, was in smoothing out the force curve throughout most of the trigger pull. Not really a reduction in weight, just...

    One possibility is either the trigger bar spring has an issue, or the trigger bar spring plunger is sticking in its hole. Pictured below is a P30SK, but the part is functionally the same on the HK45C...

    Just for fun, showing what's possible. A few weeks ago, I installed Linux on an old Lenovo Thinkpad X200 I had laying around. Got it off eBay for ~$50 awhile ago. The X200 was produced in 2008,...

    Whatever you do, avoid Norton or McAfee like the plague! ;) They're resource hogs and generally decrease system performance and usability by a good 30-50% in my experience. You can have a 10-15y/o...

    By "expandability", I'm guessing they just mean that, since it's a mini pc, there's not room for a lot of extra stuff in there. Those have 2 memory slots, and can take at least 32gb of ram (2x16gb)....

    For the HK45C, #214154 also listed as 50214154, which is the same thing. It's the same exact trigger axle used across all the USP and newer hammer guns.

    Most of the springs for the HK45C and a few...

    To put things in perspective, I would look at modern HK hammer guns (e.g. USP and newer) as a "lifetime gun" for mere mortals. Some here might wear them out. Most will probably never come close.

    The GGI flat trigger works great for SA and LEM. For a full weight DA/DAO (.e.g. ~10-12#+), I find it a bit awkward. The upper part of the trigger is farther forward than the stock trigger of course....
