Agreed! The sear spring is wearing the nub on the MSH and riding up in the fire control assembly. In my experience, that can cause a gritty/heavy feel in the trigger as the sear spring gets out of position relative to the ejector and sear.
SIG will replace the MSH and sear spring with the much improved GEN2 version. Can't say that you will be totally happy with the trigger pull after the repair, some folks ~coughbumpercough~ just think it's too heavy, but I'm confident that you will feel an improvement.
FWIW, I think SIG CS does a good job of communicating the customer report to the gunsmith but I still like to put my own note in the case when I send it in for repair.
Have an RMA. Need to swing by my storage unit to get the factory box to ship it in. Will see what it feels like when it comes back. Playing with it last night, I decided that the trigger pull feels inconsistent. Sometimes if feels heavier, sometimes not. Sometimes crisp, sometimes not. Kind of strange, because when I look inside while actuating it, I don't see the MSH moving.
The MSH does not move. What you are probably feeling is the ejector (which rotates when the trigger is pulled) scrapping against the edge of the sear spring instead of sliding smoothly against the sear spring; this happens when the sear spring moves up in the assembly as yours has done.
With your slide removed, manually depress the ejector and hold it down as you pull the trigger. Feel better?
I like the trigger on my 938, it's stock. AS I see it this is not a target gun it is a self defense weapon. In most peoples hands it probably won't be used in competition for it's purpose I think it is good as is and accurate at 10 yards or so.

Though there's always the principal of "different strokes" (of which I am one!).
TheSigArmorer used to have a youtube video up showing a P938 with action job being accurate enough for a steel gong at 140 yards for so.
Don't know why the video got taken down, or why one would normally need to focus on defensive shooting at 140 yards - the fast shooting was impressive though .
This is the first rapid fire target and first rounds at 10 yards with stock 938 trigger. Too much scatter but when it comes back I'm going to slow down a bit and see what happens. Triggers are like bourbons. Everyone has their own feelings about what they like. I am an experienced but average shooter and the stock trigger seems to set up well (for me) for EDC IMHO.
After 100 rounds of live fire and a couple of hours of dry-fire, the trigger on my P938 is a really nice 5.5#.
I'm accustomed to "tuned" 1911 triggers, and the SIG is all I could have hoped for in a stock pocket pistol.
Someone above mentioned the Walther PPS as an option, and for a plastic-framed, striker-fired pistol, the trigger on that is very nice, too.
Resting on outline of IDPA Back-Up Gun box for size comparison.
Got the pistol back from Sig today. Gunsmith comments:
-REPLACED HAMMER & SEAR
-REPLACED/UPDATED PARTS:
-MAINSPRING HOUSING
-SEAR SPRING
-SEAR PIN
-MAG CATCH SPRING
Dry firing it a bit in the Fedex parking lot, it feels better. Been a while since I shot it though. Will take it to the range and put some rounds through it, but I'm thinking it'll be a welcome improvement. May still elect for an aftermarket trigger job, but would like to keep it stock if possible.
