I have 3 glocks. 22, 23, 27. I carry them, size depending on weather (and clothing worn) I want the 3 triggers to be the same for obivous reasons.
The creep is extensive. The break is predictable, but "mushy" . Overtravel is not a huge deal...not tons after firing. I am pretty convinced the 3.5 connector and .25c trigger job is in order.... OR should I just buy 3 drop in triggers? My 22 has the smooth trigger, the 23 has the serrated trigger. I like the smoooth better, so can I just swap one out? What I want is light creep/ less creep. Great break. Like an ar15 2 stage trigger (I know I wish), less overtravel. Will the 3.5# and trigger job do it, or do I need a competition spring too? Whos connector? Thanks Wags |

First, you definitely want to get the same triggers for your 3 pistols and the ribbed comp ones on your 23 and 27 aren't that good. I'd suggest that you replace them with THESE. At $19, they are a bit spendy but well worth the money for a better trigger feel. I replaced my G23's with one. As far as getting a better trigger feel on all of them, I've been posting the following for years and it's still true. I've found that all you need is a 3.5# connector and a Competition Trigger Spring for a lighter and crisper trigger. Much pre-travel and all of the over travel will be eliminated and you'll love your new trigger. Best of all is that it’s both cheap (about $20) and so easy you can do it yourself in just a couple of minutes. 3.5# Connector: I've tried Glock, Scherer, and Lone Wolf 3.5# connectors in my Glocks and Lone Wolf's is the best hands down because it gives you the best 'break' with less take up and over travel. The other two connectors left a mushy feel in the trigger. You can get it from Glockparts.com for $15 HERE. Comp Trigger Spring: The Comp Trigger Spring is a higher weight spring (6lbs vs 5lbs) and because the spring works with you pulling the trigger, not against you, the higher spring weight gives you a lighter and crisper pull. Glockparts.com has them for $5 HERE. While you’re at it, give your Glock a 25¢ trigger job by following the instructions HERE. Its really quite simple to do and you’ll be pleased with the results. For instructions on replacing your connector and trigger spring, as well as disassembling your Glock, check out Glockparts Disassembly Page. Just click "Disassembly" on the left of his home page. They give instructions with photos to help you do it. Glocks are simple to work on so give it a try. |

Exactly this.... I run a 3.5 connector and heavy trigger spring in my G34. In my Carry G32 I run a 3.5 connector and NY1 trigger spring for the consistant pull from start to finish and it increase the weight only .5# |

So, I only need to buy 2, correct? I'll order up the trigger, connectors, and comp spring. Thanks Wags |

Although I kind of prefer the Glock OEM 3.5# connectors after trying both the LWD and the OEM ones. YMMV. But definitely the $0.25 trigger job, smooth trigger and connector + comp. trigger spring is the way to go IMO. |

IMO, any 3.5 pound connector will feel mushier and creepier than the stock 5.5 pound connector. Is that from your having tried several different brands of 3.5# connectors?? Yes. The best combination of trigger parts for me is a stock 5.5 lb. connector with a 6 pound trigger spring and a Wolff 5 pound striker spring. Lighter trigger pull but still has a decent break. ETA: The "." connector might be worth a try. They're reported to reduce the pull about a half pound while maintaing a good break. |

I ordered up the parts last night. I ordered 2 triggers, 3 springs and 3 compensators. Should be here by the end of the week.
I know they won't be exactly the same. It would be nice if they were in the same ballpark anyway. I try to keep all my rifle triggers similar. Just helps me when I grab that rifle for mr coyote out the window. HA. Thanks I'll report my experinece when I install triggers. Wags |

Oh, yea... duh.
I threw in the connectors, smooth trigger assy (23 and 27), and springs. Well, what can I say. They are "better" I guess. I am just spoiled by a sweet selection of rifle triggers. The break is still mushy. Much better, just not perfect. I still have to do the $.25 trigger job. I believe that will help. I am not disappoointed. Just need a little more work. I will have time to do it this week. I will shoot a few rounds tomorrow, then do the trigger polish stuff and give it a try again. Like any weapon, I just need to fire more rounds through it. I have shot sevral hundred through them, but been a while. I have about 500 loaded up, so I will shoot them after the trigger work. Thanks for the help. I will report again after shooting as is and then after shooting with trigger polishing, etc. Wags |

probably a little late but i use the ghost rocket 3.5 pound connectors with polish jobs in my g17 and g26.
it takes a little trial and error to get it to work (just a dremel), but it removes all the over travel/mush and gives me a nice pull all the way through. it replaced the 3.5 pound drop in connector from lonewolf and i havent taken it out since! |
