Ghost Inc. Glock Triggers

[bravo6four]

I recently read an article on these triggers claiming they are outstanding. I'm part of the "If it ain't broke don't fix it" crew but it seems like these triggers are nice. This all stems from purchasing my Glock 34 at which I enjoy the 4.5 lb trigger pull vice my other models at 5 lbs. Since I shoot this more than my others now I thought it would be good to change them all to the 4.5 lb. I called Ghost Inc. today and the person I was speaking with told me that with the info I gave him I should go with the 3.5 Rocket:

What I'm looking for is a consistent pull on my Glocks, faster reset, and reduction or elimination of over travel. The person at Ghost was nice and even gave me a money back guarantee if I did'nt like the trigger or would exchange it something I would like less S/H. That's standing behind your product! He also told me it does'nt void the warranty from Glock and is as safe or better than stock while holstered. As much as I trust his word, you can tell me the beer is cold but I really won't know until I see it or my buddy confirms it is. So I look to you, my buddy's! I want to see if anyone has installed one of these kits, shot a Glock with this trigger, or has a run drills with this system in a holster. Thanks in advance for replying.

I converted mine shortly after I got it. 3.5# and have never had an issue. I carry everyday and shoot at least once a week. You'll enjoy it.

I had a Rocket kit in my 23 for a couple years, but about 6 mos. ago I changed to the Tactical and played around with different springs to get a 4 - 4.5 pull. I liked the 3.5# but since it's my EDC I don't need the worry of getting picked apart in court over it. You'll like the shorter pull and reset. Do it!
ETA: It's been so long that I forgot I had issues using the reduced power firing pin spring and got light strikes 3 out of 4 times so I went back to the factory spring and problem solved. I also didn't use the reduced power trigger safety spring just the 6# Wolff trigger spring. Still the best thing I did, way better than factory. It will take some fitting with a small file.

Love my Ghost Rocket connector on my Glock 22. Reset is definately shorter and overtravel is minimal. Didnt mess with changing any of the springs and its the only mod I have on my Glock except for the sights.

You can solve most of your problems with the stock trigger by running a 3.5lbs connector and a NY1 trigger spring. This will remove the staging effect of the trigger, and will give a faster reset.

So your tip worked REALLY well, thank you. I also took the liberty of adding maritime spring cups which made it all in all smoother to shoot. One thing I noticed though is now when I take the pistol apart now that I have to manually depress the trigger back to take of the slide when I did'nt have to do that before. Did I install something wrong? This is what I have:

G19
(1) Stock Glock 3.5 lb connector
(1) NY-1 Trigger Spring
(1) Set of Maritime Spring Cups

NOTE: When I tried to install the Ghost Inc. Rocket 3.5 lb connector, the NY1 prevented the trigger bar cruciform from falling into the safety notch. This prevented the trigger drop safety from working and making disassembly of the Glock 19 difficult.

Ghost is GTG 1000's of rounds and never a problem.

Things are a little tighter with the NY1 spring. The trigger gets pushed back forward even after you fire.

I don't think you've done anything wrong, it's just how the parts fit.

Something to note, Glock recommends not using the maritime cups for anything other than special missions which may require underwater firing. I'm not sure if they're weaker, so you might want to keep the stock ones in your range bag in case those ever break.

I'd make a video to show you, but there are so many videos already. This one is really good, and he gets everything right.

i don't think this will make it "smoother to shoot". it was intended for water drainage.

You know I was a little disappointed when I got my 34 that it had the 5.5 pound trigger. The shell casing date is September of 2011, I thought they all came with the new connector...

Anyone know where I can get the factory dot connector?

[MXRider]

Sorry, looking for the minus connector, not a dot.

THANK YOU for the video and info. I was told that the maritime spring cups decrease drag, hmm. OK, I still have the stock spring cups as spares. I have quite the collection of internal parts now. Experiencing how easy all this stuff is and wanting to do things right, I've decided to sign up with the GSSF and have started the application process to attend a Glock Armorers Course (I have Private Security creds too). I know my AR , Mossberg, and M9 inside and out from my time in the Corps (Had some buddies that were 2111's) so it seems I should get the right training and understand my Glock as well. This all stems from my drive to be self-reliant J.I.C.. Finally, I find it COMPLETELY idiotic that if a person legally defends themselves that the attacker/attackers family would pursue litigation and they would dig into what kind of parts you're running. So, for example, if I stop some criminal who is an imminent threat to hurt me or my family in my house my CRKT M21 folder then they are going to get all into the knife because its "Tactical" or something like that and say something asinine like I should have used Santoku kitchen knife instead because it's not meant to hurt people. Last I checked and knife is a knife. Regardless, sorry for the rant, thank you very much for your time and help.

I've got the Ghost Ultimate 3.5 connector in my Glock 27 and I love it. It lightens the trigger just a bit, but makes the break nice and crisp and the reset is pretty nice too.

You won't be disappointed.

Not sure if this is the most inexpensive one to purchase, but it's a start:
