Ditto for an Arsenal SAM-7 “pistol”. And the list goes on. Basically, when the sniveling pukes in the California (and federal) legislature don’t want the citizens to have something, I see it as a personal mandate that I must have it, do it, or in some way demonstrate my total disdain for their being.
    Amen Brother, I feel exactly the same.

      ditto, anyone done Precision Testing on various gun triggers? I've had experienced shooters tell me my G35 gen3 bone stock trigger is "excellent" (G35 does have lighter pull).

      Could it be something about NATURE of how a trigger pulls is User Specific, like grip shape? I've heard of guys getting fancy "trigger job" and "still sucks".

        Here's what I've heard. Depending on what your needs are, you can mess about quite a bit with Glock triggers, from changing out a spring or two to a complete replacement of the entire trigger group.
        A lot of hardcore Glock guys swear by the Glock Performance Trigger but from what I have read, it takes some mods to make the GPT work with the Gen 3 Glocks. If you have Gen 4/5, the GPS fits right in and
        is an easy DIY mod and many people swear by them.

        But I have also heard that if you are going to carry your Glock for PD or use it for HD, best to not mess with the stock trigger from a reliability standpoint. So range toy, go sick, there are literally dozens of trigger options. But for PD/HD,
        you stand a chance of messing about with the Glock's legendary reliability if you mess with or replace the trigger. Personally, I find the trigger on my 17 and my 19 I picked up today, in just doing some dry firing, it's a spongy mess.

        If having a good trigger is important to you, I think the Glock is not the right pistol to shoot. It's like putting lipstick on a pig. Get a 1911, 2011, Beretta PX4 with the Langdon, I also picked up my new PX4 Storm with the LTT Trigger Job in a Bag and the Gray Guns wide trigger
        today at the same time I picked up my G19 and the Beretta trigger feels incredible. FWIW, I also recently bought the VP9 and IMHO, stock, it's trigger is just okay. Not terrible like the Glocks but not in the same league as my CZ75 B with the MCARBO
        Spring Kit or the PX4 Storm, which right away, I can tell is something very special.

        I'll be keeping my Glock triggers stock as I am using both for PD, Carry/HD. I really like other aspects of my GLocks but the trigger isn't anything good, it's barely acceptable.

          What are the goals? As Capybara eluded to, OEM triggers are prioritized for PD. I have 7 Glocks. The application is HD, PD and range entertainment. No matches, competition whatsoever. All of my Glocks have Overwatch flat faced triggers because I do not like the stock Glock trigger shoe. None of these Glocks have any modifications to trigger pull, except for one which is my Glock 30SF. The 30SF has a Ghost "minus" connector. But besides the 30SF, all my other Glocks maintain the stock connector and springs. That said, I do not own any long barrel Glocks like the G35 which are often modified for competition shooting.

            When Glocks are outlawed, Glock owners will be labeled as “ outlaws “ oh mama 😟

                Not trying to rub it in but I do recall saying that you would eventually buy that Glock 19 .

                I bought a G21sf but thinking of getting another Glock as well. Not sure which one though!

                  You were correct sir! ;-)

                  If it matters, I did buy it out of spite and I didn't really want to buy it. I came close to buying the Rost Martin RM1C instead, but the thought of Gav Boy and Bonta throwing down the ban hammer made me do it.
                  Nothing I hate worse than tyrants telling me I can't have something because they deem it so.
