Anyone run just the 3.5# connector on their Glock?

Hi folks-

Title pretty much says it. Anyone run the 3.5# connector (no NY1 spring) on their defensive Glock (carry, training, or home use)?

That's what's in my 34 came with it, never saw a reason to change it.

I'm running that setup in my 19 and 21SF. Unless you polish all the contact points the trigger is not that light at all with just the 3.5# connector.

I have and do. If I remember correctly the new (-) factory connectors are 4.5# now even though everyone still refers to them as 3.5#. But don't ask me why or where I heard that as I can't remember

I run all mine with the factory minus connector and standard springs. From a G34 to my carry G26. I like the softer break of the OEM vs. a Ghost or a Lone Wolf. The Ghost and Lone Wolf are good but don't feel as soft. They have a crisp but sharper break to me. I like my triggers with a roll trigger feel.

I talked to a Glock Armorer about this and he said the connector itself is 3.5# but once installed the other factory springs (firing pin and trigger spring) give the trigger a 4.5# feel.

BTW, I have a Glock 17 and the only internal modification I have done is a Glockworx race connector.

Factory (-) connectors and standard springs for me as well. I went back to this after trying the NY1 combo for a while and not liking it.

Same here


From the 19 I own now and all future Glocks I own they'll have the (-) connector.

I don't care for the break on the 3.5# connector.

That is also what I was told by the armorer who worked on my trigger. He installed the 3.5# connector, polished contact points, and swapped out a spring or two. When I purchase another Glock I suspect it'll get the same treatment unless of course there are good reasons not to due to safety or legal concerns. I've never had to use a weapon for defense but it seems to me like anything that makes the weapon easier to shoot accurately would relate to an increase in safety for all involved, with the exception of the target naturally. If someone more knowledgeable than I could outline some of these concerns they may be something to consider when deciding on the proper trigger for a defense weapon. Thoughts?
