Glock carry trigger advise

[Shenaniguns]

I'm a fan of the stock components polished up... Either you can do it yourself, pay someone or buy Glocktriggers.com's Guardian kit (Highly polished and detailed OEM) with whatever flavor connector you prefer.

For Concealed Carry pistols
Not less than 4.5 trigger pull.
You applying for CCW right?

I already have one.

I'm not aware of a law covering trigger pull weight.

Does the CCW instructor bounce your application if trigger pull is <4.5 lbs?

I've never seen a CCW instructor with a device to measure triggers, it must be a So Cal thing.

Yeah, lots of people in SoCal have said the SO's armorer inspects guns and measures the trigger pull to make sure it's at least 4.5. Orange county or San Diego I think.

Leave it stock and spend more time at the range.

Agreed!

Even my polished up Gen 4 G19 has a trigger weight of 5.75 pounds, so bring it on!

Sorry to thread jack.......I bought a used 19 recently.................trying to figure out if the connector is OEM. Short of taking it off, can you tell from just looking at it if it's OEM or not? What can I look for? I've looked for pictures online, but haven't found any pics that have been helpful. Thanks guys.

This is what I did on my Glock 17 Gen 4:

1. 25 cent trigger job
2. change out the stock safety plunger spring(lighter) and the trigger spring(heavier), after a lot of research in regard to their reliability.
3. I didn't touch the striker spring at all

I've since ran 250 round through(Winchester white box) it without any stoppages. Can't say this will work for everyone, just what works for me. The trigger break is still heavy but the pull is silky smooth before you get there.

Even if the trigger was rated at 4lbs, a pull gauge would probably generate various readings from 4-5.5lbs.

Skimmer

OP here,
For those OEM nazis out there the Skinner and Guardian are OEM triggers mirror polished with slight trigger bar mods. The Skinner can have up to 5.5 lbs. trigger pull. I get the whole range time and practice deal, I have thousands of dead paper men under my belt with my Sigs. I just want my Glock set up the best way possible before I start sending thousands of precious 10mm rounds down range. As far as the $ goes I just came off a week working 45 hrs. overtime and thought I would spoil me and my little black buddy a bit.

If an aftermarket trigger is what you want, +1 on the SKIMMER - good choice. Why? Because I want to. Spend more time at the range and take more classes, say someone? "Rodger That..."

Yeah, seems like he'd have to do multiple tests and take an average.

By the way, don't most decent 1911s come with a lighter trigger than that to start with?

What I did was just pull the trigger out and lube it up. Put it back in and dry fire it a few hundred times. Then pull it back out, clean and lube it. Repeat this a few times and your trigger will lighten up and feel much smoother.
