    Personally after many attempts - if I had only one thing to change, it would be changing the connector to the Taran Tactical Innovations one. It doesn't change the pull weight, maintains all safeties, but makes the pull sharper.

    I just don't have trust on other connectors out there - ZEV, Ghost, etc.

    My carry outside CA is a G26. All stock except for the TTI connector.

    That's my experience with a Ghost Ranger "4.5" connector. Weird reset issues. I think it had to do with the bend in the connector where it goes into the ejector assembly. Things weren't lining up right. I may try the TTI one at some point if I feel the urge.

    Some people use the 3.5 connector with an NY1 or 2 trigger spring. Same weight or a little heavier but supposedly a shorter pull and more positive reset. Haven't tried it myself. Also, due to the rather robust nature of the NY trigger springs, it's supposed to prevent trigger spring failures.

    Since my Glocks are carry guns, I wouldn't change springs. If I can't hit what I need to with stock components, I need more training, not springs.

      I use that combo in my "dry practice" guns - heavier weight builds finger strength, while the 3.5# connector + the NY1/NY2 makes for a crisp and solid trigger feel. Oh, you'll love the quick reset, as well!

      PS: It is NOT essentially a spring per se; but a "gizmo" you put in the trigger housing.

      Correct!!!

      This was with a stock Glock 19 a couple of years back:



      and a stock Glock 34:

        To be honest I think you might be served better by just dry firing a lot so your finger doesn’t care.

        Remember to dial 1 before 911.

        Forget about stopping power. If you can't hit it, you can't stop it.

            All my Glocks have stock springs and connectors. I use to promote an after market connector and the .25 trigger job until I had a problem with the trigger resetting (trigger stayed back) If I manually pushed the trigger forward the gun would fire. Luckily it happened during a class and I had a spare 19. After that I removed all the aftermarket connectors and threw them in the garbage. The minus trigger is a stock connector for the 34 it was meant for competition and not HD or duty. I have no doubt my 34 is duty ready and several people use them without problems I'll stick with the stock connectors and springs they came with. Also as another poster stated it seems like the stock glock triggers seem to be much better than in the past.
            Can DI AR's run dirty?

              I was very pleased with the stock triggers on both of my two recent glock purchases. The more I look into this, I don't think I will even change the connector, in reality how much difference would it really make. If I want to make a difference in my skills, I should practice more. These guns are for defensive purposes not for being a movie star.

                Yep, looks like what I will do, I have this old beat up pistol with a 12lb pull, practice that for a while too.

                  Just a connector can make the pull a lot smoother and change the break and reset. Good enough for me. I like TTI and ZEV V4 Race... you hunt around you might find them for $15. OR the TTI Grand Master kit around $30-$40.

                    I got my Glock 19 Gen 3 in 2015. People at Glock Talk suggested the "1000 Round Trigger Job". So after 300+ rounds down range I had mastered the Glock trigger and at 1000 rounds I mastered the Glock to where I was shooting it just as well as a 1911 or a revolver.
