    Anyone who has been using Ghost connectors and switched to Zev?

    I'm in the Zev club now.

    I bought a connector and trigger spring kit for $30 for G19 and this will the 3rd one I've installed.

    Just curious to what you guys have done for upgrades.

    The only ghost connector I like is the evo elite. It’s the one you need to file and hand fit into the gun. Aside from that, I don’t have much experience with zev. I had a fulcrum trigger that I swapped out the Zev for the ghost and an NY1 trigger spring to bring my trigger pull up from 1.8 pounds to 4.5

    I’ve got a Ghost in one m, it’s decent.
    And a McNally trigger in the other, it’s very good.

    I want to know how you got a Glock trigger to 1.8#.

    I pretty much only run Ghost connectors with the 6# trigger spring.

    I broke down and bought a Zev fulcrum trigger and what a huge pile of disappointment that was. I replaced their connector with a Ghost Ultimate and 6# trigger spring and it’s now tolerable but that’s about as nice as I can be about it.

    Sure. Zev fulcrum trigger kit with the lightest weight striker spring, apex firing pin safety, 6# trigger spring, polishing, and a ghost evo elite connector, I believe that ones listed as a 2.5. I dry fired a lot and shot the gun a ton which also helped over time

    Dang. I've put the four pound trigger group into my wife's 10/22 and that one is as light as I would want to go in a range toy. I'm fine with the 5.5 pounds in the Glocks.

    Ah, I shoot a 10mm mostly. A light striker spring doesn’t work for me. The rest makes sense.

    I think that striker spring was a 2#. It gave me intermittent light strikes because I had an OEM striker and not a lightened skeletonized striker. It was scary light. And I carried it like that for a few weeks before realizing how unsafe it was

    Well, I have to back back track a little on my statement.
    Yesterday I bought a Zev kit for my sons G19
    Last night we installed it.
    Connector, trigger spring, firing pin spring and extractor spring.

    After the install, there was a lighter break but an issue with the trigger reset and the beginning of the pull felt odd.

    We figured out it was the Zev trigger spring and put the factory one back in.
    Overall, still nice improvement but checked around and some others have had a few problems with that one spring and end up not installing them.

    Now I am officially backing off 100% and retracting my statement .
    Zev Technologies springs for Glock suck !
    Don’t buy Zev Technologies Glock springs. The connectors are still good, but the Zev Technologies Glock springs suck big harry donkey peckers.

    After the Above problems with the trigger spring, my son has been running his Glock 19 with the rest of the Zev parts in it
    Last week he took his LTC course with that gun and when he shot a full practice course the day prior, he had a light primer strike with it. One of 50 so thought nothing of it. It was WWB ammo.
    Well, during the course, he had 2 more light strikes with WWB ammo. Now I’m not blaming the ammo.. I truly think its that damn Zev firing pin spring.
    So tomorrow its coming out and the factory spring is going back in and we will run a test and see.

    But as of now, I and doing a 180 on Zev springs.
