Prodigy Trigger Shoe

So being a 1911 novice and having seen the wonderful amount of knowledge here, have a trigger replacement question. I’m looking at both aesthetics and functionality. Not trying to take it beyond a 4.5 lbs break. I know you can adjust pre travel and take up on some of them but I also don’t want to worry about screws backing out. As ridiculous as it may sound I’ve been watching various YouTube tutorials on the subject. Do you really need a trigger that has all of those adjustments? Or can I just replace the trigger with one that functions like the stock where I can adjust the pre travel. Also never have done a trigger removal on a 1911/2011 platform. How difficult is it? I’ve adjusted the sear springs and installed a Magwell on my Kimber. So how difficult is this process? Is there a way to just replace the trigger shoe with a flat face.

I recommend a gunsmith, plus note then likely you will void the warranty,

Plus I wouldn’t listen to those YouTube stuff on any gun modifications, always use a reputable gunsmith, just sayin
 
Removing and replacing the trigger on a 2011 is a simple job in and of itself. However you will need to effectively disassemble the entire gun to get the grip module free in order to get the trigger out. While you are in there you should also file down any extraneous plastic flashing in the groove the trigger fits in. It can make a noticeable difference. Btw, not all triggers are the same and may require some figment. Typically, the cheaper the trigger is the greater the chances that you will have to fit it. To learn how to disassemble a 2011.
