Pretty sexy.  Although your metal guide rod won't really do anything.  And keep an eye on the APL in cold weather.  My old one wouldn't actuate during a Michigan winter.

Your right about the RSA I've just had issues with the stock ones before. I've heard mixed reviews about he APL but I figured I'd give it a try. I run the surefire XC1 on my 19 and I like it.

Biggest questions are does it run and what is the 25 yard accuracy like?

It runs great. No issues at all. I took it to the range about two weeks ago and I was shooting steel plates that are about 8" in diameter. Getting hits on the 30 yard plate wasn't an issue. This was a fast moving and shooting course of fire. I haven't fired on paper yet for groups but I will this week.

Why the trigger bar swap?  You do know their are reasons Glock added the nub?  The myth that the Gen3 bar makes a difference is nothing more than a myth.  The Gen4 bar has advantages it rides the slide so the bar does not ride the frame, it aids with catching the slide during disassembly, and is supposed to aid in engaging the striker block in adverse conditions.

It was something I had experienmented with on my 19 and 26 in trying to find the tigger I liked. At first I enjoyed the smith faced trigger and now I'm still trying to see if there is much of a difference. I'm aware of the GEN 4 vs GEN 3 as I'm a Glock armorer.
