Glock triggers

[Glock22]

I've been looking to compete in USPSA this spring so I bought a gen 4 34. I've been looking at different trigger kits on Glock triggers.com like "The Edge" kit or the "Vogel ". Are these kits worth the upgrade?

 

[Snizz1911]

Probably not. I assume since you bought a 34, you'll shoot production. I can't say I've ever looked at the triggers you listed, but if you do go that route make sure its production division legal. When I shot a glock I messed with the trigger and had some light strikes so I ended up just running it stock. Id save the money and just buy some extra practice ammo.

That video has a good amount of info. Some I have changed opinion on or gained knowledge, but it's a good start.

The glock can be setup to compete fairly well for production.

It's a Glock, so it's various levels of turd polishing...
I put a Taran kit in both my 34 (production division) and 35 (limited division).

On the clock, you won't notice a huge difference. it's good to drop a couple pounds of pull weight just for those occasional long/tight shots, but most of the time it doesn't much matter...

vogel kit is probably good to go, because bob vogel. I know it's nothing extreme, but never tried one.

imo.

They advertise them as legal for USPSA and IPSC

$160 for polished OEM parts that someone stuck a set screw into (yes, that's all they are) is silly. They're not any better than a Ghost rocket connector or an OEM minus connector with a re-profiled trigger bar.

that's why I ended up going w/ the taran kit. $45. I think I got them on a "black Friday" sales for something like $40 shipped. new springs and a slightly different geometry + polished connector. nothing fancy. been reliable w/ win and fed primers. good enough.

honestly, not a HUGE improvement over a light striker spring from wolff, a - connector, and smoothing from dryfire...

All I ever did with my Glocks is install a Factory 3 1/2 lb bar / trigger or whatever Glock calls it.. And like others have said here, its a Glock..

I've found, at least for me, eliminating the overtravel is most beneficial to my follow through and that helps my accuracy.. I've installed or handled about every aftermarket "drop in" and they are all over priced for what you get. The trigger housing with the set screw works pretty well but I have seen that cause a problem with trigger reset just as the heavier trigger spring will in some guns. What ever mods you make have someone that understands what is going on the the trigger group take a look at it if it's used for self defense. Anytime you change any of the factory springs you can create reliability issues.

Run your Glock 34 before changing anything, you will probably find that it is just fine the way it is. It comes with a 3.5 trigger bar.

I really, really enjoy my drop-in trigger from DK custom triggers and so has everyone else who has shot my gun: https://www.glockcustomtriggers.com/

Polish the parts up and shoot the thing!

Good advice at the end of the video.

Waaay away more important than the trigger is the sights. Factory glock sights suck, esp the adj on the 34/35. They are just trash.

Glock Triggers.com are great triggers, Drop in replacements that are from factory triggers. Nick has the EDGE in his USPSA Limited gun and loves it!

What is the opinion here of using the stock 5+ Glock trigger for USPSA? I haven't really noticed a problem with mine the little that I have shot it, but I've never shot the 3.5 trigger on a Glock either (which I understand is really just 4.5).

No reason to run the stock trigger weight. IMO

The lighter connectors out there including the factory minus will typically result in better accuracy in my experience.

But, it's glock, perfection out of the box ..... why would you need to change anything ?????
