Sounds like a good plan. You can change the sights any time you get tired of the ones you have, and as long as your current ones work, then there is no hurry.
Remember that changing a trigger on a 1911 is a hit and miss thing, and it may require some additional work to fit it correctly...You might want to consider having a gunsmith do this and a quick trigger-job while you are at it. It will likely make a huge difference.
I have had good luck with Wilson and Nighthawk parts and magazines, though they certainly are not the cheapest. Wilson became famous for their triggers, so I doubt you would go wrong with one of theirs. I use Nighthawk only because they made my pistol and it is a matter of convenience for me, though they are very high quality.
I have an extended mag release on my pistol and like it a lot. It is not over sized, just slightly extended. I doubt there is much difference between brands for that part.
