JBP55 Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 I sent an email to Timney yesterday requesting the heavier reset spring due to weak reset issues and have not heard back from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at all, I adjusted it several times and finally put it back where I started. I have worked on 100 plus Glocks in the past 20 plus years.

Flea Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Has any consensus formed yet as to whether this is the be all, end all, must-have trigger for gun games in a Gen 5 G34? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rooster Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Not sure, I think if you know the platform and are comfortable working on glock triggers, I think you can get better. I think you can shorten the take up a little more and still be on the shelf. You can mix and match all kinds of oem and aftermarket parts to get exactly what you want. However this is a very good innovative trigger which at a 150 bucks gets you an excellent trigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlieD Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 The break on the Timney is pretty nice, but the reset is where it goes south. I much prefer the Johnny Glock triggers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
titandriver Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 (edited) My kit came in today - there were two trigger return springs included, a silver one for stock connector & a red one for aftermarket connector. I used the red spring with a Ghost connector - will go test fire tomorrow but so far it is sweet dry-firing it!

Aircooled6racer Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Hello, I guess I will have to get the stronger trigger spring for a faster reset. My splits are slower with the Timney than the trigger I did myself. Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say if you're starting with a stock gun you just got, it's an easy way to get a really good trigger. But I wouldnt replace something you already have and like with this. In my bone stock 34.5, it brings the pull down to right at 3 lbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baron85 Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 Just installed my timney in a 34/5. Seems really good but would like to shorten the take up. Is there any way to do that? What gains will I see from an aftermarket connector? Right now it’s all stock minus the timney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can only shorten up the take up very little until the trigger safety no longer engages. You’d have to modify the blade safety to take have noticeable change in take up.

davsco Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 man i just don't know what's going on with my zev lower. tried the timney trigger now (after trying an apex) with a few different connectors. takeup sucks a little less but still sucks. i was trying to sight it in the other day with a red dot, using a rest, and by the time i got the trigger all the way back i was all over the place. similar components in my 80% lower and WAY better trigger pull. ditto for my canik and even gen 4 glocks.

Tried putting the Timney trigger in an old CCF frame and was bummed that the pins weren’t compatible with the trigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been off the forums for awhile for work. I'll have to check this out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hermes_actual Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 I received the heavier trigger reset spring from Timney - great customer service. Anyone know what the U-shaped piece is? I didn't receive one with the trigger initially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitefish Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Per their website description, Timney is now including a c-clip that goes between the sear housing and the screw that secures it to the trigger housing. Apparently, some were having issues with (over)tightening that screw and had the screw head actually pull through the polymer trigger housing or break a small piece out of it.

They really should include a torque setting on it although it’s probably super light like 5-7 in lb without breaking the oem polymer housing.

Aircooled6racer Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 Hello, my spring kit came today and I installed the red spring for after market connecters. I really like the reset speed now. It did make the trigger pull a little tougher but the quick reset makes it worth it to me. I appreciate Timney sending this out so quickly.

Aircooled6racer Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Hello, I was wondering what connecter you guys are using with the Timney trigger? I have tried the "-", dot and a Lone Wolf so far. I have a couple more that I will try next week. Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
