I'm thinking about picking up a 320. I've always found their triggers "mushy". I much prefer the Glock trigger, with the defined wall and nice "snap" break. Are there mods out there to make the 320 trigger more to my liking?

Yes, there are.

You can think of the Glock trigger as half-cocked, while the P320 is more like a single-action and fully cocked.

The trigger "mush" on the P320 is largely excess motion in trigger take-up and some over travel. Grayguns and a few others make triggers for the P320 which do considerable to remove the takeup and over travel, as well as adjusting the place where the trigger breaks.

The grayguns triggers come in curved and straight, and include a trigger with overtravel adjustment. They also offer a kit for competition which allows different spring combinations to be used to adjust trigger weight.

Try using a heavier firing pin spring.

It does.
The OP's point of reference must have been a P320 with an unusual crappy trigger. It happens I suppose.

The reasons the P320 has an inherently better trigger than a Glock is that the P320's striker spring is 95+% charged when in battery.
Glock is 70% charged so you are compressing the striker spring during the press with a Glock.
Also the P320 has a sear where Glock has a piece of formed sheet metal.

There are 3 ways to get an exceptional P320 trigger :
1) Get lucky and get a great one right out of the box.
My P320F had a 4lb trigger out of the box.
2) Send it out to The Sig Armorer (Robert Burke) and have him do his magic
3) Install the Gray Guns Hybrid kit

I have the $149 Gray Guns kit and my P320 has the nicest striker fired trigger that I have ever pulled.

You can monkey with this trigger, that trigger, more triggers, blah, blah, blah triggers.
YOU DON'T GET THAT MAGIC, CREEP FREE BREAK UNTIL YOU GET THE GRAY GUNS SEAR INSTALLED OR HAVE THE SA TRIGGER JOB DONE.
PERIOD. THE END.



Spring Values :
Darker sear springs - light
Gold sear springs - medium
90° trigger bar spring - light
Obtuse trigger bar spring - medium
