Glock 3.5LB trigger connector
Do these really make a noticiable difference? I have read a few reviews on them and look around but was wondering they were really worth it? Any companies better than others? Would rather hear your guys' opinion.

Yes once you put one in your glock you will swear it is a new gun
I had one put in my model 20 but didn't notice any precievable difference, In fact when the armor removed the original, we compared them and other than the marking they appeared identical. It could be a difference in metal composition. I can't say for sure.
I like mine. It's some difference. Some people say it increases mushiness and makes the reset less distinct. If you're one of those people, try adding a NY1 spring with the 3.5 - weight goes back up to ~stock, but becomes much more distinct in its stages.
9mm - because they don't make a 9.1mm
The difference is in the angle at which they contact the trigger bar. It is possible that you may have an incorrectly market unit.Originally Posted by IceAxe
Once installed, the lighter connector makes a huge difference in your trigger pull. Since the pistol has to be disassembled to install the new part, take this opportunity to do a ".25 Cent" trigger job. It's well worth it!!
The Glock OEM part is fine. Avoid the Scherer connector like the plague!!
If you are a little bit more adventurous, I would recommend that you go with the Ghost Rocket 3.5 and fit the over-travel stop tab. It's really easy to do and it shouldn't take you more than 20 or 30 minutes to do it.
3.5lb Trigger is WAY too light in a defensive pistol. IMO.
A guy I know put one in, it was scary light. No way in HELL would I bring something like that around my family.
If it was for comp. would be nice though
I have a few LEO friends that use them in their duty guns. It's really not that light. If you don't change the trigger and striker springs, it is about 4.5 lbs.
Ya and if you breath on it it just magically goes off.
They aren't any more dangerous then when they came stock.
I have a ny trigger spring with the 3.5lb disconnector made all the difference in the world from just the NY trigger I am very happy with it.
You sir, are a specialist in the art of discovering a welcoming outcome of a particular situation....not a mechanic.
My feedback add 11-12 ish before the great servpocaylpse of 2012
I've found all the aftermarket 3.5 disconnectors really mute the reset "click", and prefer the oem one. I've found a few of the aftermarkets to not fit correctly and I had to cut the disconnector side channel a little wider to get them to work too. Leave the springs at factory levels and a nice polish job, you will feel a big difference and it will break at about r lbs give or take a half lb.
I like to round out the edges on the safety plunger and then polish it too. You get rid of the "ride over the edges" feel in the trigger pull when you do this. Just go light on how much material you take off and keep as much of the top diameter on the plunger to avoid having it get caught up in the striker during firing.
Mom's comin' 'round to put it back the way it ought to be.
