Smooth trigger for the Glock 30s

[RussellC]

One thing I did not like about my Glock 30S was the grooved trigger. I think that is the only way it is available. Another was it would occasionally fail to feed, not very often but when it did it didn't inspire confidence necessary to be a carry gun.

A friend suggested that I buy the trigger and trigger bar assembly for the Glock 21, 21 SF, etc and try it. It is a smooth trigger, like the 21 SF I also own has, I just wasn't sure it would fit the 30s, but he assured me he has put one in his 30 SF. When I got it, sure enough it had the same numbers stamped on the bar as the bar in my 30S.

Now not only do I have the smooth version of the trigger which I much prefer, but hasn't had a single Fail to Feed issue since. Maybe I am just happier with it, but my 25 yard performance with this gun is improved as well! Very happy with this cheap change up!

Great! I never noticed a preference between the two triggers until I got my 17, I'll have to think on that for my own 30S

I got mine from midway, I think Brownell's had them same price. I do not care for the grooved trigger at all. Quite inexpensive too!

Midway is out, they sell out regularly and anticipated date states "over due." I see Glockmeister has them in stock.

for Glock parts I go to Lone Wolf Distributors or the GLOCK STORE.

Or you can save some $ and sand out the groves. That's what I did on my G29 10mm & it's comfortable to shoot.

I fondle all of my new guns in front of the TV for several nights worth. The intention here is to find all the little hot spots on the gun and make it "hand friendly." Nothing I hate more than a gun that has a bunch of sharp edges on it.

I go to Front Sight 2-3 times a year and shooting 2-300 rounds a day will definitely wear your hands out. If the gun has been deburred it makes it a lot more friendly and you can concentrate on your shooting rather than your pain.

The first thing I do to all my Glocks is shave the trigger safety down until it is flush with the face of the trigger when it is compressed. This alone makes the gun much easier on your finger so that trigger control doesn't include trigger pain. This makes you shoot better.

For 20 bucks its hardly worth the time, but if one isnt doing anything else. Sure does make it more pleasant to shoot! Best part, something about my original as was gun is that it occasionally jammed. Must have been something wrong with the parts or something. Replacing the assembly fixed that problem.

Shaving the trigger safety is a heck of a good idea! Thanks for that. What do you use to sand it down? Great idea, after 300 rounds or more, that trigger safety can be felt, and it does a job on the trigger finger. especially with stout .45 loads.

Will try this most def!
