In a Gen 3 - the standard connector is ~5.5lbs. The "-" brings this to 3.5-4lbs.

In a Gen 4, the standard was up over 6lbs, so Glock introduced the "." connector, which brings it down to ~5.5lbs. The "-" will take this to about 4-4.5lbs.

If you have a gen 3, you can use the "dot" connector for a middle ground.

No, I dont think any of the connectors are "unsafe", nor too light. You still get the "shelf" before the trigger breaks regardless of the connector, its not like it turns into a 1911 trigger.

And if you want a smoother pull, its worth a bit of time with a dremel or a lot of time polishing the metal connecting surfaces. You can find some DIY's online, which are not difficult to do.

My EDC is a Gen 3 G19. The smoother pull is really what im looking for.

I am interested in this topic as well. My research indicates that there are some combinations of spring changes that can lighten and smooth the trigger pull without compromising safety. I am interested to hear from those who have actually done this to their guns to get their opinion. I guess worst case scenario is buy the spring kit, install it, and then if you feel it creates an unsafe condition, go back to factory springs.

I was reading about springs changes as well. I hope all the educated people on this subject blows this up.

Glock 3.5# Triggers

I have been doing some research about going with a lighter trigger. I have read pros and cons.

Pros: smoother trigger, faster reset, more comfortable

Cons: to light, fear of accidental discharge, to light if you use it for EDC.

Does anyone have any expereance with a lighter trigger? Does anyone feel its to light for EDC?

Any help would be appreciated.
