Religious Shooter Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Looking for Glock brand 3.5 lb connector. Midway and Brownells don't seem to have one (they have 5.5 & 8.5). My memory seems to say that they stopped selling separately a couple of years ago. Is this still true? Want to use it for an HD/Field purposed G17, G19 and G21SF. Any recommendations for such if the factory one isn't available? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowenbuilt Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 There are several sellers on EBay that are selling the OEM minus connector. I have purchased quite a few from them when no one else had any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Distant Thunder Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 The 4.5 or "-" (minus) connector is available from both glockstore.com and glockmeister.com. Both sites price it at $25.00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fireman1776 Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Overwatch precision offers an np3 plated one as well. It's no longer referred to as a 3.5 connector. Just a "-" or 4.5 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Religious Shooter Posted February 21, 2017 Author Share Posted February 21, 2017 Thanks all. I pulled the trigger earlier and already bought from CPWSA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Religious Shooter Posted March 1, 2017 Author Share Posted March 1, 2017 From a factory connector (on a non-long slide Glock)... night and day difference. Long slides (at least the 34/35) already come with the 4.5 from the factory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lgh Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 22 hours ago, Mosig said: Does a connector make a noticeable difference? It makes a difference but not necessarily a difference you like. I just changed out all the 3.5 connectors for the 5.5 on my carry guns. OEM 3.5 is way too mushy for me unless matched with NY 1 spring. Then it stacks quickly and is stiff. I have some old Ghost 3.5 (which might have changed) which are also mushy. I do like the Evo Elite Ghost on my game G17. Connectors are cheap and you can experiment with them to find out what works best for you. Just pay attention to reliability issues. Many seem to find it best to leave the OEM Glock innards alone in carry guns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which one you like will depend on your preferences...some change break while not effecting reset and vice versa. The two I prefer and have narrowed down to over the years are the Glock oem "minus" and the TTI connectors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm curious what they look like... the Classic-GM kit I got from him had a connector that was thinned out considerably so it was a lot skinnier. I'm wondering if these are the same ones that he sells separatly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
