FFT Trigger Machine Marks?

Maybe I'm too anal about stuff like this, but anyone have any suggestions on what I could/should do about this? Bought an FFT trigger, had someone install it, and it looks like it has some machining marks on the side.

 

Leave alone, return, fine grain sandpaper?

I imagine I probably won't feel it too much as it's too close to the back of the trigger guard to allow my finger to rub too much, but it is bothersome nonetheless on my still-perfect M4 lol. It would certainly be a PITA to replace though. I might just take your advice and leave it alone since I don't feel comfortable replacing it myself

FFT said basically don't worry about it, they're sure it's fine...I'll see after shooting it a bit I guess. Not really happy with the way it looks and feels. The reason I went FFT instead of Geissele is that someone posted on here (SD Maybe?) that the Geissele seemed to wear more/faster

Am I missing something? Geissele website shows a HAMMER for the M4 but not a trigger. I keep hearing rumors about a Geissele trigger but AFAIK, not yet available. :confused:

 

My FFT trigger shows similar marks but they are on a part of the trigger that is not visible when installed.

The casting defects are shown on the trigger. The hammers are made by FFT and Geissele. The FFT and OEM hammers will show deformation after high round counts. None of this has ever been shown to effect function.

 

The trigger shown will not have any functional issues. It's purely a cosmetic defect.

Not to pile on . . . but here is my FFT hammer. It has seen about 30rds.

The coating is already peeling off. I don't know what the deal is but it seems extremely weak.

The hammer itself doesn't appear to be deforming though.

I am going to continue to use it. If it deforms I will get a Geiselle and have a gunsmith stone fit it as out of the box I don't care for them.
