Glock Engagement Help

[Matsuda_San]

Looking for anyone who can help me with my glock. I bought a G34 new in May and added some aftermarket parts the very same day I picked it up. These parts include: a ZEV V4 Race connector, LWD trigger overtravel stop, and a stainless steel guide rod. Since then, I've taken it out several times and without any problems shooting about 1.2K rounds through it.

However, recently after I took my G34 to sight a new fiber optic front sight, my gun started firing in bursts on the reset of the trigger, at random times. After taking it home, I put the original trigger assembly and parts in it to be safe. There was some visual wear marks on the striker face and trigger bar coating.

Since then, I've purchased an armorers plate to insure that the gun was safe to use. Is there any Glock Armorers that can take a look at the cruciform engagement to help verify the gun would be safe before I take it out again.

Glock wants 2/3 of the thickness of the trigger bar to be engaged by the striker. When I was an active Glock armorer, 99% of the problems brought to me were aftermarket parts and the fix with to throw them in the trash and put factory parts back in.

Based on the pictures you took, the engagement looks fine with the factory parts. Have you checked the engagement with the aftermarket parts? 99.99% sure that's where the issue lies.

That having been said, I'd suggest test firing the gun with only 2 rounds in each magazine until you're comfortable that the gun is functioning as it should just to prevent any mag dumps in the unlikely event it malfunctions with the factory parts.

My wife's Glock 19 Gen 3 went full auto after having an after market connector in for over 2,000 rds. Fortunately, we were at the range practicing when it happened. I put the Glock connector back in and haven't had a problem while shooting another 5,000 rds. It will sure wake you up when this happens.

Why not just keep the gun stock how it was designed, and use it that way? It will be the least amount of money spent and will function 100%. Doesn't make sense to make a reliable gun unreliable by adding aftermarket parts that jeapordize your safety and those around you. Is there a reason why you needed to switch out stock parts for aftermarket the day you got it? Seems like there is a simple solution to your problem instead of trying to troubleshoot aftermarket parts.
