I normally don't get too excited about glock triggers, but this one intrigues me.

I use an Apex trigger on a couple of mine and love them. These look nice as well

Apex makes a good trigger.

The thing that makes the timney different is the sear assembly. the striker is cocked (like a single action) instead of it being cocked by the trigger pull. A guy could use a full or extra power striker spring for reliability and still have a light trigger.

I haven't even seen the timney trigger in the wild, but I really want to try it.

That sounds pretty slick. I’ll have to check into it some more. Thanks for the heads up

FedEx finally delivered it to me and I installed it. It breaks at about 3lbs, with a bit of takeup on the first shot and a small amount of overtravel. I am pretty happy with the timney.

Looks awesome! I love Timney triggers but haven’t tried one in a glock. I’ve been running ZEV in mine. Gonna have to try em’ out.

That's pretty sweet looking. It's basically a drop-in? For reliability, would you consider it in your carry gun over the Glock factory trigger? I'm just leering of modifying my carry gun, with the exception of adding a Zev 3.5lb connector.

It is drop in. It adds a couple of parts, so I am not sure about using it for a carry gun. Once I get a few thousand rounds through it I'll know better.

There is a trigger return spring and a sear added. The good thing is, you can use a full-power striker spring and factory striker while maintaining a 3lb pull. To reduce pull weight the conventional glock trigger, you reduce the striker spring rate, which can lead to light strikes.
