I have done this and it makes a difference. Another big difference is to use a 19lb main/hammer spring rather than the 23 lb factory weight hammer spring. That lighter weight spring makes a world of difference.
These cost about $3 form Wolff gunsprings. Do this if nothing else.
If you want more detail Brownells had a good how to article about trigger jobs.
A 1911 can have the best trigger there is on any auto doing some small amount of work.

This is what I did with my 1979 Gold Cup. The reduced power main spring made a BIG difference.
That, and after a few thousand rounds, it has very nice trigger.
It's probably not nearly as nice as a full custom job, but at 3 1/2 lbs., I certainly like it.
