Which springs, connectors, shoes etc. are you using? Which gen Glock? What results are you getting? What are you using it for?

If I mod a Glock trigger, its to get a flatter trigger face and dump the striated OEM trigger. I use the Overwatch Precision PolyDAT trigger. better overall trigger and priced right, too.

Stock OEM trigger system with a Timney trigger shoe, for my carry gun.

Stock Glock Performance Trigger in all other Glocks.

Ghost connectors in all my Glocks. Glock performance triggers in FS & Compacts. OW~Polydat on my Micros..

All stock OEM with the polish job. I have at least one of each generation from 1-5. My Gen 1 has all the original black lacquered internals and it's the best Glock trigger I've ever shot.

Apex poly trigger kit in my G19g3. Like it quite a bit. Well worth the $90.


For many years I shot the gun with minus connector and the NY1 trigger spring. Very sharp reset and while it was fine, I wanted to try something else. It was a very good upgrade, for me.

I wouldn't know where to begin

All stock everything on all of my guns. Well except for a pair of wooden grips on my S&W 442.

All my Carry guns stock triggers. Range/Competition guns have Vanek Custom triggers.

The subject is Glock triggers and nothing else.

I have Salient triggers on all of my 'Glocks'.

Johnny Glock triggers in my G49 & G17.

Stock, out of the box trigger with the 20 minute polish job on all of them, including my duty ones.

Call me unsophisticated, unpolished, a savage- but stock triggers on Glocks and AR’s never really bothered me. I know it’s “squishy”, and a little unpredictable break, but I can still shoot pretty good with a stock Glock trigger.

Glock OEM triggers with the minus connector in a couple. I prefer the smooth trigger “shoe” and shave down the safety so it’s flush with the trigger face when depressed. Other than that shoot them a lot. 99% of the time when someone in a match has reliability issues with a Glock they’ve messed with the trigger and/or the OEM recoil spring assembly.

I'll swap a grooved-faced OEM trigger and bar with a flat-surface OEM trigger and bar.
Do a 25¢ trigger job and I'm good to go..

Glock oem 3rd gen
minus connector and internal trigger components are lightly polished.

Smoothed Glock G17/22 trigger on my carry G23s (all Gen4s), dumping the serrated one. Factory minus connector as well.

No mods whatsoever on my G43 and G43X; straight factory.

As for my other double-stack Glocks...way too many aftermarket 'experiments' to count. I do have one Gen4 G19 configured just like my carry G23s for that day I finally decide .40 has become too much for my aging self to handle.

I would use the factory - connector along with polishing. Cleaned the trigger up quite a bit. I think I used wheel polish.

Glock 19 gen5 with Glock Performance trigger and + connector

When the term "polishing" is used, what are you polishing?
