Little may be the operative word. That looks pretty small for a .45. Is it for carry? |

Suz, I can easily fix the trigger pull on your Glock for you. I've got two with 3.5 pound trigger bars. They are very easy to install.

Cool SlimJimmy, then maybe I could do it myself? After all, you're not in my neighborhoodie. What do I need to buy? or is it to comflifreekinpated? The only things I've done to it are, I put on an extended magazine release, recoil buffer and my most favorite thing of all a screw on belt clip for stickin it inside my pants. I admit I've never delved into the the workings, but diagrams of the innards are easy to find. OKOKOK nevermind too comflifreekincated for me I just looked over a tutorial HERE and I don't wanna even think about it. SO I guess you have to buy a trigger bar and replace your old one?

Me personally i am a wheeel gun man, no safties, no jams, no magazins, to get in the way under critical stress! Cross draw holster, Aim, "bang, your dead! Having said that i also love the autos, Colts, my favorite (Para ordnance) S&W MP5, 1911, Ruger, etc, and as a back up, not a problem.
Chers erny.

That link is from a guy that is "penny wise and pound foolish". The trigger bar replacement is very simple and only takes a minute. I can pick one up at the next gun show for you if you like and send it to you. We have a Glock guy that has the new trigger bars that are lubricated with a chemical coating. I can't remember if he charges $25 or $35. I've got them in all but my carry gun. Let me know. |

found an aftermarket connector bar made by Scherer for under $8 from CTD. At that price its worth just trying it to some report its not as smooth the factory trigger bar. I like sticking with factor but at that price it may be worth a try.

Suz, do you place a drop of oil on the connecter bar and the trigger extension that slide against it. My stock triggers work nice also but it sounds like yours may have some rough edges.

Everyone I know running a Glock say to use this one !!!
About $15 for the standard $25 for the Rocket.
The installation instructions are also on the site along with other good info.
