Going to second this guy on this, phenomenal combo but every 1K rounds or so it’s need a spray of break free into trigger housing or the reset will get a little iffy.

Brother your realize the johny glocks vex trigger shoe was made for the alpha competition timney trigger thats my trigger set up so yes i third this set up an agree buuuuuuuut it was meant for a alpha competition timney trigger i built my gen3 34 based off johny glocks knowledge regarding internal functions and tolerances so good on ya to seek information from credible sources like johny hes a glock wizard but yes vex trigger shoe was made for the timney trigger system so getcha a timney trigger struggle with the shoe pins get it off an slap that vex trigger SHOE on it an also 25 cent polish the brand new timney trigger system right out the box polish it get it nice an chrome once you get that shoe off an then slap on that vex trigger adjust it right to the brink of its adjustability an bam there ya go.

@@zelevenzelevenz9823 Johnny tested it with the GPT with excellent results and sells it specifically for the GPT now too. I tried a Timney first, but I had too many reliability problems with it and stuck it in a draw until the GPT came out. I do a little polishing, but otherwise leave it stock and that is the set up for me. I shoot tens of thousands of rounds per year and want full reliability without tinkering. I've found that keeping it clean and lubed and replacing springs at the appropriate intervals is working perfectly for the last 18,000 rounds, so I'm reluctant to change anything at this point.

Your so right the detail difference sure is the tinkering aspect and potential reliability issues and or frequented maintenance check ups. I guess I just enjoy having to pile on more things to check on an maintain haha. How I love to suffer 😂

What springs are in the kit?

@@J.Young808 The basic package includes a striker, plunger and trigger return spring.

I just picked up a couple sets to try out, Usually shooting federal 124 and going to try 147 Any issues with federal and the lighter strike spring? Appreciate your time.

ALL true, but if you have the means, WHY NOT!? 😎 and hell yes I'll be the old guy driving a Corvette! 🤣

I think the question is are you going to shoot better with the 4k gun than you shoot with the stock gun???

doubt it

@@poidog22 well, according Ben... the answer is yes.

@@MrZola1234 speak for yourself brother. You’re a grown man.

I confirm that. I use the stock striker pin too. I am really surprised only few people seems to even try them out.

I heard, read Overwatch Precision, OP has great triggers, parts. I like the FALX design.

He’s using the shoe alone.

@@AJohnSmith do we know that for a fact? Because they don’t just sell the aluminum trigger shoe, they sell it with their trigger bars. Im pretty sure Ben didn’t take it off the trigger bar and replace his factory shoe….that feels worth mentioning if it was the case

Ben took his performance triggers out.

What does the guide rod do?

@@nickallen8333 adds weight

@@nickallen8333nothing

​@@Matthew-zb3iw But did the added weight equal better shooting?

Before you mod with something as dubiously effective as a comp-do you have good sights, enough mags, enough texture in the grip, and a trigger that you like?

A comp will “feel” better but won’t make you objectively any better. Save the money for ammo.

I carry a souped up glock. G45, Kkm barrel and comp, Triji RMR, stippled, nice trigger, surefire X300. If I have to lose one of those mods, the comp is going first. It is the last last thing on the list when it comes to vital mods. I cannot express to you strongly enough that you should prioritize your money elsewhere.

counterpoint to the other replies: comps are cool, do what you want

Compensator, the guntubeshill hype of the past 18 mos or so. It's not a rifle.

Ask robert voguel all he does it put a grip slug weight with flared back scoop some griptape an reworks his internals to his tolerances an hes a beast works for him but he holds his glock like a silver back ape on crack cocain so his gun is super accurate with his grip thats probably more important then what hes shooting an id say ben would say the same thing its your technique understanding and skills that will allow them both to shoot whatever gun it is efficiently

I like Glock Store guide rods; stainless steel versions.

Competition or duty/carry use?

I installed a set of Ameriglo on my EDC. It was toss up between Ameriglo and Trijicon for me.

I've gone with Dawson. I love them. They will rust if you touch them with sweaty hands and don't clean them. I just took off the rust with a brash brush and spray painted it with matte black enamel paint. Never rusted again

Heinie Straight 8s are good.

@@John.VanSwearingen duty

Check out his video with a title similar to “SRO Dead to Me”-he likes the Holosun 507 Comp.

@chefmatt6299 i get the impression that is the USPSA / IDPA concealed carry optic go to optic. Though he did have a quick video about a different optic the otherday that claims no glare. Hevis going to try it and do another video.

Aimpoint ACRO2 or HoloSun solar powered green dot.

People who want to be competitive and stay out of open division

Not neccessary

@@boomee78of Cours it not necessary, but why not.

@@CA.0verview Because you'll be bumped into Open division if you're shooting USPSA and you won't be competitive there with a ported G34. Capisci?

That's the deal, flat for finger pad and curve for joint crook. G47 w/ GPT, flat blade too far out. Awkward even on pad. GPT w/ Johnny Glock Vex curved shoe, perfect in joint hinge. Even okay on finger pad.

Duty guns run fine for competition, not sure why you believe otherwise. Unless arguing a new gun buy to your wife, maybe.

Because some of us carry duty guns for a living and lots of civilians carry duty guns as part of their EDC. It makes perfect sense for the armed American to train & compete with the gun (or a similar gun) they carry every day.
