Demetrio Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 (edited) Three little questions: 1) What's the difference between these two? 2) Combined with a 3.5 lb conector, can I get a, lets say, +/- 5 lb weight for a Production Division trigger, using one of these two springs? 3) Does anybody have a photo of this spring installed? I have no idea how it is installed in the trigger mechanism. Thanks, Demetrio. Edited December 18, 2007 by Demetrio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HI5-O Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 (edited) Demetrio, Hope this works and helps. If not, I might have to email you the pdf Glock_NY_springs.pdf If you use any of the NY springs, do not use the coil springs.

Micah Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 The olive drab NY trigger is NY #1, and the orange is NY #2. After doing a fair amount on searching on the net and through books, #1 takes the pull to 8lbs, and front loads the weight to the take up. I'm still looking for an instal pic. If you are looking for a better competition trigger, you are looking in the wrong place. NONE of the top competitors use this trigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NONE of the top competitors use this trigger. Pharaoh, I'm looking for one that can give me 5 lb trigger weight with some more consistent pull, and I read somewhere that such combination could give me right that. What would you suggest for something legal in Production? Thanks, Demetrio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1911user Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 They will make the trigger pull feel much more like a double-action revolver. I would not want one for a competition pistol even with a 5 pound weight limit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flexmoney Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Used to be that Glockmestier had a chart that showed his testing of various trigger springs and setups...and the resulting trigger pulls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTew Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 (edited) According to the Glock armorers manual, the NY #1(olive green) with the 3.5lb connector should give you the 5lb pull you are looking for. The NY#1 with a 5lb connector is 8+ lbs. The NY spring drops right in following the shape of trigger housing, the other springs you show, trigger springs, are not used with the NY spring.

jbullgpd Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Having installed these for my old department I can tell ya that a 3.5 connector with the #1 (green) will give you 8lbs. Orange #2 will give you an ugly 11lbs. And you dont use the factory trigger spring, its one or the other. The NY trigger emulates the double action of a revolver. You pretty much have a 5lb from the start and the added 3 lb to break it at the end. A crappy trigger if ya ask me. I finally got the department to agree to go to at least the stock 5lb connector and stock trigger spring. Scores went up considerably. So in a nut shell stay away from the NY trigger. My 2 cents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramas Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Demetrio, you have a 5lb trigger pull with 3,5 lb connector to break it at the end with OFM springs. By the way by IPSC Production div. rules all parts must be OFM, no spring cuting, no trigger jobs, no polishing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "3.5#" connector was a misnomer.... unless you put the trigger pull gauge on the very tip of the trigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flexmoney Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Three little questions: 1) What's the difference between these two? That picture is not of two trigger spring options. There are four trigger spring options in that picture. Three of them are Glock factory parts, and one is after market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demetrio Posted December 24, 2007 Author Share Posted December 24, 2007 (edited) Flexmoney, I was alluding to those two "different" springs only. Edited December 24, 2007 by Demetrio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
