Turning in my G4 G23 with a super nice trigger

[Enochwel]

So I’m turning in my duty gen 4 G23 that’s got a trigger that’s either been modified or otherwise worked and worn down very nicely (I don’t know which). I’ve put nearly 10k rounds through this pistol and I hate to see it go. When I go to buy a replacement Gen 5 G23 what would you recommend to bring the trigger up to the smooth and crisp (or worn out trigger) I’m using now? I’ve seen buffed out trigger component replacements for sale online but I could do that myself. What have you guys done to improve your glock triggers while maintaining the glock style trigger pull? Specifically for a Gen 5

I don't replace anything on them.

Just shoot the hell out of it (or dry fire practice). It will break in nicely.

Will your department let you guy that retired gun?

As for Glock triggers - just shoot 'em and do a bunch of dry fire. The Gen 5 is a different beast than the previous generations, and I've only dry fired a few, haven't put live rounds thru a gen 5 yet. They do feel different already, not massively so, but less spongy to me. You might not need to do anything to it and still be happy with it.

I've been looking for a Gen 5 Apex Enhancement Trigger kit for my G17. Hard to find right now

I hate to say it as I've carried nothing but a Glock since the 90s but M&Ps are an upgrade trigger wise right out of the box. Add the apex trigger, I dont think I will as the stock one is fine to me, and no Glock can touch it.

Kind of surprised your dept will allow changes to the FCG of an issued firearm.

If the pistol is duty weapon, I'd check with your department before making any changes to the pistol, just to be on the safe side. Some departments won't or don't allow any changes to the pistol.

Barring that, dry-firing a lot would probably be the best and safest option available. Moving parts will smooth out with operation and time of being used.

Your avatar is, um eye bleach resistant. Worse than having an annoying diddy stuck in your head all day.

It serves a purpose. I sent that picture to all the Moderators of the forum, and now they let me do whatever I want!

JK!

They are probably just afraid you will send more and are avoiding you like a dog who looks away from their master thinking if I cant see you then you're not there.

Mercy, I beg you for mercy, please no more.

I thought it might also be useful at deterring the occasional troll that showed up here on the forum, by sending them that picture in PM. No such luck. Mostly they get all excited and several times I have gotten marriage proposals from them!

It has been around the internet for some years now. I first saw it on another gun forum, probably ten years or so ago.

The best solution I found for improving my former glock trigger was to sell it and buy a Sig with an Ajax trigger

Just don’t drop it

Its a feature, not a bug, right?

They don’t. But it would not be surprising to me if some officer did anyways and I wound up getting issued this gun later.

Zev makes a good lighter connector and a some mild hand polishing on the contact surfaces of the trigger action have given me nice results
Just leave the springs factory or you could be in for an occasional FTF
There can be a balance of give and take between a dependable trigger and a smooth one

 

[candcallen]

No free lunches.
