I am in the K.I.S.S. group with hpnewby. 1. Tumble in walnut for 2-3 hours with a capful or two of Dillon polish. 2. Trim to length 3. Run through 550 4. Shoot 5. Repeat. If I had a .5 MOA rifle I would put effort into the details. My Colt is a 1.5 MOA gun so it is not as critical.

Not the best pictures in the world, but it shows the lighter colored center ridge that is causing the issues. The pictures also show what looks to be a raised indicator to give functional depth.

Thanks for all of the input. I do not want to violate any rules. If I did I wouldn't have anything to blame for my shooting abilities. I got into this sport to improve my skills and have fun with an inexpensive setup simular to my carry gun (production)- not to get to the nationals and smoke TGO. I find myself more concerned with why my finger is getting gouged than on learning or much less having fun. The issue I am having is with a smooth trigger. My other older carry Glock has the ribbed or competition trigger and is fine. I spoke to Glockmeister and was told that "many of the newer Glock triggers have this issue." They also stated that it didn't come up with the older Glocks. Has there been a change in the trigger design in the last few years or just less attention to detail or relax of spec.? It seems to effect both the newer ribbed and smooth triggers. It seems to be a finishing or molding issue with the little safety bar. I have no doubt that there is a person that buffs all of the little plastic parts and was having a bad day. Has there actually been a ruling on this? Or is everyone jumping to the assumtion that this would be considered an external modification. I would have considered painting the gun an external modification until I was told that it wasn't. I find it difficult to believe that one could not be allowed to bring the gun to a simular condition to others within factory spec. How would this violate even the spirit of the rules or give any competative edge?

Hello all not new to the forum, I have used much of the information here, but first post. I hate to create a new topic for first posts, but my trigger safety is bugging me to the point of getting rid of the gun. The issue of the Glock trigger safety having a sharp center ridge and not flushing up to the trigger face is common to some of the newer glock triggers. Many have said to get used to it, but I can shoot my other carry Glock all day (500+ rounds) and not even notice the little safety bar (bone stock trigger). Why should I put up with this for a comp. gun? The fix is to sand/ buff the trigger safety flush to the trigger face so it does not dig into your finger. Problem solved. My question, which does not seem to be clear after reading all of the posts that I could find, is if this "fix" would be considered an external modification and be a violation of production rules. Any ideas would be welcome.
