Sleepswithdogs Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 (edited) Put in a light spring kit, trigger bar and 3.5 connector from Glockworx in a Gen3, 34 and everything worked great for about 100 rounds, then I started getting light strikes. Very disappointing how much heavier the trigger felt with the stock striker spring back in so I got their lightened striker, now everything is back to great, no more light strikes, and the trigger feels almost like a 1911.

Blue Jacket Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I actually use a 4.5 lb striker spring from Wolff. Not quite as light pull, but reliable ignition. I had the same problem with 1 of my factory strikers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
67 LS1 Camaro Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 OEM striker w/light spring works 100% on my G17 , with Fed SP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waktasz Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Yep...You need to run Fed primers if you want to run a super light striker spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sauza45 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I use winchester primers with the factory striker and wolff light spring. Have around 8,000 rounds and not 1 light strike. I use Marine spring caps and I think that is the trick. I have set up 2 guns that way and neither has hade a light strike. I have even used CCI primer and all have fired.

Stician Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Glockworx spring has too much vibration when compared back to back with Wolff. Vanek's milled square face polished spring is even better. Also if you guys want crisp, it's time to try an ejector housing with adjustable overtravel. I was very surprised on how much input this setting has had on the feel of the break.

McGlock Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Im with blue jacket, 4.5lb wolff. No issues.. If i start getting light strikes, time for a new spring. I keep a few on hand at all times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whatsupglock Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 4.5 lbs wolff spring here with stock striker as well. 3-3.25lbs trigger pull and I use CCI primers with no light strikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob01 Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Tula primers with a 4.5 spring and stock striker gets light strikes. 5 lbs spring works fine. I thought about trying a lightened striker but heard even then some were getting light strikes with the hard primers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBP55 Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 It is not uncommon to get light strikes using a 4# spring with the OEM firing pin. I have never gotton a light strike using the 4.5# or 5.0# Wolff springs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankge Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Glockworx lightened stainless striker with extended tip + Federal Primers = 100% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBP55 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Glockworx lightened stainless striker with extended tip + Federal Primers = 100% Same with Jager but everyone does not reload and those that do can not always get Federal primers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
