    Ghost 3.5 for ccw glock

    Does anyone use this on a ccw firearm? I was thinking about trying it out on my
    19 and 27, but I hear people have concerns about putting it on a carry gun. My 19 is pretty forgiving, but any help with medium/long range shooting with my 27 would be fantastic.

    Thanks guys, I appreciate the help.

      Lol. Yeah, sure. I would use one if I didn't want my trigger to reset and I wanted to carry around a potential paper weight. Just google "Glock trigger not resetting" and see what the main cause is. I put one in my 20 for strictly range use. Worked 200 rounds and then started to fail to reset. Never know when it's going to fail, but it will fail. Stick with a factory "-" connector.

        Don't know about Sacramento, but most Sheriffs won't allow such modifications.

              This. Exact same problem with mine. That connector went straight to the garbage. Will never buy a non Glock connector ever again.

              Oh, and it was mushy as hell too.

                Had a Ghost in my G41 and it failed to reset. Swapped it out and went back to the original factory connector. No problems ever since. But funny thing is I have the Ghosts in a gen3 G19 and a Gen2 G19. No problems whatsoever. Not sure if the Ghost had fitment issues with the G41 thinner slide?

                  Agreed.

                  With all the problem reports of aftermarket connectors I'm going to swap out the ghosts out of both my G19's back to factory connectors also.

                        I have a Lone Wolf 3.5 LBS and a "-" OEM Connector, so far the OEM connector didn't make a difference. The Lone Wolf is nice though.

                          I used to be a big advocate for trigger connectors and I've seen them with a lot of rounds through them without a problem. It only took one time for me to see it double. The connector was slightly bent outward which fixed the problem until it could be replaced with a standard connector. I have read but haven't seen connectors causing triggers not to rest. Either of those could be/cause a catastrophic failure if you use it for CCW where your life depends on it.

                            Triggers not reseting has a lot to do with people not installing them correctly.

                              I have a 19 with a Ghost with over 1000 rounds through it with no problem. I had forgotten that it even had one as I recently posted about problems I had with my 34 with the same connector. The 34 either has issues with double or triple taps(which is a problem at the range), or will not fully reset. This started after running between 500-1000 successful rounds through it. Going back to a - connector.
