    Glock aftermarket trigger comparison

    Not for me, but is there anyone or an article/video (preferably a video) out there where someone compares some/several of the different aftermarket glock triggers?

        On this topic... Been looking for the best way to improve the Glock trigger, but keeping it within the current specs. I basically want a really good 5.5# trigger... Smooth uptake, crisp break, short and obvious reset.

        Any recommendations?

          .25 cent polish job and a OEM -connector. will drop it to around 4.5lb. My Glock trigger is pretty crisp and tactile, why I like it. It has a predictable break with short travel and a very crisp reset. Pretty much ruined other pistols for me. After shooting my Glock with regularity other guns just feel cheap. Like the SIG 229 I fired recently, felt like garbage.

          Here's video of my trigger, but it's about how it feels so video is irrelevant.

            I've watched videos before I went and got a 3.5 connector but everything is hard to see, it's one of those things you have to just test it out for yourself. I personally like its at a 3.5 it's a clean break. I just got both agency arms trigger kit and a deus ex machina trigger kit. I'm install one of them on the Glock 26 this weekend and the other will go in my Glock 19 when it gets back from getting some customer work done to it. I can feel a noticeable difference between and stock trigger vs a trigger kit

              I tried out the Taran Tactical Connector on my Gen 4 G17 this weekend (Thanks Sam) which is polished up and I love that tiny bit of roll compared to the hard wall. I need to measure the weight but it still feels like it's above 5 pounds or so which is perfect for my purposes.

                While it's not quite a tuned 1911 trigger, this is the way to go with Glocks.. A Polished OEM- connector is a good balance of light / reliable without being too light.. I also like the Apex Tactical Ultimate Safety Plunger with this setup to give it just a little more smooth / crisp feel. https://store.apextactical.com/WebDi...Details/192006

                The Polished OEM- connector & Apex Safety Plunger is the default setup for most of my Glocks, I have two with the Ghost EVO Elite Trigger kits in them and they are absolutely incredible, but I would not recommend them for Duty / Defensive shooting, they're just too light for high adrenaline situations. http://www.ghostinc.com/product/GHO_...s-GEN-1-4.html

                  Glad you like it!

                  With the TTI connector, Apex trigger face and the Apex plunger safety, I'm getting 4.61 lbs weighing at the very end of the trigger face. The parts themselves probably have less than 1K rounds or so at the time weight was measured. Before the TTI connector was installed, trigger weight was 5.5 lbs.

                  My trigger bar could be polished for a better feel but the combo of these three parts make a pretty good trigger without me having to do anything other than throw them in there.

                    I agree with these comments.
                    I've turned mine into a virtual race gun (no mag well and I don't compete).
                    The trigger is down to 2.75 lbs at midpoint on the trigger.
                    I wouldn't want it in my hands during a stressful situation.
                    The trigger is just too light for Home Defense.

                        I PPT'd a Glock 30sf years ago from fellow Calgunner. At the time I didn't care it had the 3.5lb connector. It is not my HD gun but shoots great at the range. It's the only Glock I own- nothing against them, just for Polymer I have S&W M&Ps and HKs- but I do love that Glock 30sf w 3.5lb trigger- feels great.

                              Put me in the oem - connector and 25c trigger job camp, though I may give TTI spring's a whirl too.
