Glock experts

I haven't put it on a trigger scale, but I know the stock Glock trigger feels much smoother and a bit lighter if you debur the contact surfaces. I did this with my Glock 24 competition gun with it's 3.5 lbs connector and noticed a big differance. When I got my G20 recently the trigger seemed very heavy by comparison. Once I did the same deburring to the G20 they now only feel the 2 lbs apart they're supposed to be.

For those worried about a heavier trigger slowing you down, keep in mind that a stronger return spring will let the trigger reset faster, something more imporant on guns with a longer reset, and there's going to be very little differance in time to pull. It's all going to net you around 0.25 sec per shot.

...a stronger return spring will let the trigger reset faster...

The Glock trigger spring isn't really a trigger return spring. It only moves the trigger bar upward so that the firing pin projection will catch it as the slide moves back forward. A stronger trigger spring will not speed up the Glock reset.

The actual reset (pushing the trigger back forward) is done by the striker spring.

Griz22, what have you been smoking. Watch out for that hemp! There is no "liability waiver" from Glock. Good grief! Where do you guys come up with this nonsense? Don't recall having to sign one for any of my G34s and G35s either. Yep, I do carry one of my G35s on occasion.
There is a major difference between a 3 lb Glock trigger and a 3 lb 1911 trigger. The Glock trigger has to move a much greater distance before it releases the striker. Last time I checked none of my guns will fire unless I pull the trigger. Best safety is to keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to pull it.

They used to do that when they came out with the 3lb. If you feel safe with your 3 lb trigger go ahead. As for me that's fine on a comp gun but as I said I think its trying to compensate for inadequate training on a carry gun.

Maybe you could direct me to some "proper training". I guess I am just too new to this shooting thing.

This would go OT I'll send you a PM.
