Kettlebell Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 I have heard the Gen 5 triggers are almost as nice as the older Gen 3 triggers. If I wanted to stay with a Glock connector and trigger bar what else could be done to improve the factory trigger pull? Swap (.) connector for (-)? Swap to a Wolff 5lb striker spring? Polish all wear surfaces? Other suggestions? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B_RAD Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 (edited) I shot a gen 5 last night. It was heavy but didn't seem too bad. I'm not sure I've ever thought any stick Glock trigger was great. I just accepted them. At least on my carry guns. The first thing I'd try is going to a 4.5# sprng if it was for competition.

Jamese35 Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Give johnny glock a call or go to his Web page johnnyglocks.com and talk to him. He built my gen 4 34 trigger and it's insane. It's the best glock trigger I have felt and I've shot alot of glocks including Bob Vogels glocks and johnny trigger is best hands down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kettlebell Posted August 10, 2018 Author Share Posted August 10, 2018 Thank you all for the input! I will look into TTI and Jonnyglocks. Has anyone had problems with a 5lb Wolff striker setting off quality factory ammo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said I can run a 4 pound with the stock striker on my reloads with cci primers and not have a isue, no light strikes at all. I do have a lone wolf striker channel liner and the ghost pro spring cups as johnny told me he really like them, so I trusted him agen and haven't had any isues.

Garmil Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 I have the overwatch trigger in my gen 5. It's not the lightest but has a great break and reservation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamese35 Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 I should also put with my johnny trigger I'm getting 2.25 pounds with the 4 pound spring, 2.75 pounds with the 4.5 pound spring and 3.25 pounds with the stock striker spring and if that's all to light he can build it with more trigger weight or get a extra power striker spring. I will also say that after you hit the trigger what I have about a 8th inch of trigger pull when it breaks and no over travel at all, also as smooth as butter. I've been shooting it all season in uspsa and idpa and steel matches with a few bullseye shoots in there and it puts me at a round count of about 10k on the trigger. It's a bit heavey compared to my dad's cz tactical sport but it does feel better and the reset is sweet, varry strong and almost resets it's self makeing the varry easy on doubles. Reset is sitting at about a 8th of a inch same as the pull makeing it a varry fast trigger. As said befor I've shot alot of triggers and this is the best you can get. I like it better then my 1911 triggers just do to the reset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dbw2223 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 I have a variant of glocktriggers.com triggers in all of my Glocks. For carry I use the skimmer. For competition I’ve tried both the edge and the Vogel, I prefer the edge. The difference is in the take up the Vogel has stock take up where the edge is reduced.
