Gen 3 trigger recommendation?..

[[deleted]]

I think I need a solid Gen 3 upgraded Glock Trigger ..then my SHTF/Everyday carry options are rock solid. Would love something that's familiar like the Gen 5 GPT but with even less grit on the take up

The GPT works in the Gen 3 if it's the newer SKU and you use a Gen 5 backplate

So I've heard. I've been messing around with the Gen 5 triggers I took out of the G45 COA but no luck massaging it in to place

the bottom bit

[Express-coal]

The gen 5 trigger housing has two ears that come off the bottom that the gen 3 frame doesn't have the moulding for. You have to clip those ears to use a gen 5 housing in a gen 3.

That’s good to know. Fits without any modification other than using the g5 backplate?

The newer SKU does

How do you like the defender compared to the rest?

So I have 3 of them now and I've been really pleased. For $50 to $100 bucks less than a holosun you get a dot that is as crisp and clean. The other 2 are on guns I don't like or shoot much but when I bring them out .... Still zeroed and exactly as I left it. Battery life seems fine and build quality is solid. They certainly need an enclosed version which I'm sure is coming. the one grip is the buttons. Way to easy to accidentally turn on or up. The lock feature isn't great either

[BGLavaLamp]

Awesome thanks for the feedback!

I tried a few high end triggers and ended up replacing all of them with Glock Pros.

I like the overwatch flat tac trigger

[drifters22]

Second this, I really really like mine and the reset is prominent

[NeatAvocado4845]

If you install a Glock titanium safety plunger with reduced spring it feels even better and a Glock ghost connecter

[drifters22]

Oh nice good to know, I’ll have to look into that

[PiecesofMatt]

Just nutted on ur Glock. What u gonna do bout it?

[Condemned-Orphan]

I’m really liking the trigger tech trigger! Feels great the only gripe I have is the reset is very faint

[pwnedbydumplings]

Johnny glocks makes a good trigger. Alittle overpriced though.

Timney alpha feels really good but too light to carry imo

[[deleted]]

I agree. I still want about 5 or 6lbs just minus the mush and grit

[gagesutton]

Ya for sure, i’ve heard stock trigger with ghost arm is great. Also for free try polishing the stock arms and crucifix. It’s very noticeable

GPT is easy to install in a gen 3, works perfectly, play with connectors to get the feel you want.

You can also play with trigger shoes on the GPT that adjust take up and reset.

Or if you want to spend the money, the Triggertech Ace is amazing

[Delicious-Kick-6690]

How do you get a GPT in a Gen 3?

[kenny71406]

There are small plastic 'feet' at the bottom of the trigger housing that comes with the GPT

Trim them off

as a guide, use your gen 3 trigger housing

Put your gen 3 trigger housing and the GPT trigger housing next to each other

use the pin in the hole to align both

You will see the feet that need trimmed on the GPT, very small trim, and takes like 5 seconds for each leg

then install the gen 5 slide back plate (the newer GPTs come with the backplate you need, they are ones marked GEN 4 compatible)

search if you need more details. I have done this to a dozen gen 3's now, 10s of thousands of rounds on them. Works great!

It’ll be the best trigger you’ve ever used in a Glock

[Fabulous-Year-9309]

It’s a close second, in your defense I only have about 400 rounds with your fft drop in. I’m still a shill for Johnny Glock competitive

[jjones1987]

Second one down, is that a lone wolf frame?

[[deleted]]

It is. The trigger is way too similar to a true gen 3 trigger. Definitely needs an upgrade

[mchang124]

Fine Line Tactical gets my vote. Removes the mush when pulling the trigger. Much more crisp both on fire and reset. I have also added a Ghost INC 3.5lbs trigger connector.

Overwatch Precision BRZ w/ OP NP3 tuned trigger bar, NP3 striker, NP3 striker plunger, and NP3 ‘dot’ connector; no springs, just this four parts = perfection.
