Your Glock has one of these so refining it is quintessential to a drag free smooth and/or crisp & quick trigger break feel

Been watching your videos to ensure my build that ended up with a 2 lb trigger is fully safe and has the most affirmative reset. Before I would have just swapped trigger pieces, but now I feel like I understand the nuances better of how the trigger angles and tension work together

Great advice, thanks Johnny. I've already adjusted my 4 lb connector laterally, per your instructions. Next time I have the pistol torn down, I'll stone that little ledge on the connector, to facilitate a smooth drop of the bar into reset. Your videos are golden, KZfaq keeps them alive for years on end. - Z

Your videos are so informative. I put together my first pistol and before I found your channel I put a Apex into it. I'm really unhappy with it but after watching a bunch of your videos I'm ready to experiment. I have a feeling you're still going to end up seeing my gun but these videos have been so helpful. You're truly a master at what you do in a world of part changers.

What kind of stones are those? Are they “polishing” stones or “sharpening” stones? I know you used them dry but if looking to get some of them would they be considered “wet/dry stones” “wetstones”? Are they like the same material but just long flat versions of the colored dremel stones?

If i create a slope how much is to much ? If it can be measured a 1/32 1/16 of a inch. A slope must be created then what would be ideal would be to round off the Conners of that slope. I guess as little as possible would ideal so its sitting at like 1deg in the housing...file at 1deg approx. Then round off those corners man that would be hard.

Excellent! Makes sense. Just like chamfering the leading edge on a 1911 sear. You don't need much, maybe 0.001" taken off that edge. Same thing with the Cruciform I would imagine. Thanks!
@alexyu6928

You definitely do not want to chamfer the cruciform, it is the sears and you want it to be razor-sharp and straight otherwise your Glock might go into full auto or discharge from even a slight bump.

The ceramics are small like the pinkish colored diamond stone in this vid and are great for the very last polishing pass, but seem to clog so much faster than the other small stones I have that I would like to get more of Thanks again for you concern.

I'm sorry Johnny, I didn't word the question properly. I was trying to ask what lateral angle is the connector supposed to be so the trigger bar doesn't jump the connector? In other words, how far does the connector need to be away from the housing. Once a connector is set and working, it could be removed, then it's angle measured from the base that is inserted into the housing to the connector's vertical section. Glock ought to have the measurement.

Definitely NEED a closeup view!! Need a better camera! Need to show two connectors side by side with before and after bevel mod close ups. Saying "I wish I can show you" doesn't help get the Idea across. Suggest to put a piece of drawer slide tape on the flat to protect the surface from nicking with the file. Its a slightly hard tape and the file will glide off vs dig into the tape.

HOW FAR TO ANGLE THE CONNECTOR Hey Johnny, glad to see you doing your detailed videos again. Instagram is just a tease. You show a better shot of it on an older video @ 8:47 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/d7aXbJl-zrLJm6c.html Pull the connector out or in to where it's even with the trigger housing exactly where you're pointing to @ 8:57 I once had a factory set connector in a brand new 19 and the trigger felt like crap. So, I looked at the connector and couldn't believe they let this one get by. It was bent so bad that it was bow-shaped. I just flattened it out, then did the "1,2,3 boom" trick (reversing the connector so it hangs off the trigger housing, then giving it 3 good presses with my thumb,) you show in another video (can't find right now) and it was perfectly positioned, just in line where you show it in this video. The immediate result was the best stock Glock trigger I ever felt and about 1/2 lb lighter.

I just knocked out the rough parts with a couple strokes with a fine flat file and used brown polishing compound on a fabric wheel to polish it up! This is just about as bad as the guy who said to use a milling machine to machine off the plastic tabs on a Polymer 80 when I just used a pair of wire cutters (AKA dikes) to take off most of it and finished up with a plain old box cutter!
