Glock 3.5ib trigger for carry...convince me either way!

In deed! Worst case, if I don't like it, it is easy enough to pull off!!

Very true

Wish I would have known. I have a few I would have gave you.

I wouldn't carry the Glock with the 3.5-pound connector just because I like the 5.5-pound connector better. I think the 3.5 feels mushy and the 5.5 breaks cleaner.
That being said, would you carry a 1911 with the hammer cocked, thumb safety off, and the grip safety taped down? Other then the Glock trigger safety, that's essentially what you're doing with the 3.5-pound connector.

Tried mine out for the first time yesterday and I like it.

Pretty much ANY gun I'd dedicate as "carry" is not getting modified in function in any way shape or form... save grips for proper hand fit.
My personal opinion is that in an SD situation that turns bad...the prosecutor would have a field day.
That's my own personal feeling about what *might* go down...YMMV

There seems to be a contradiction in the discussion. Usually the glock guys are also the ones saying that you don't need any external safeties with proper training. At that piont following that line of thought the lighter trigger shouldn't be an issue one way or the other. On the other hand, if a lighter trigger will not only be more accurate but also be able to shoot faster.

It's a personal decision, but I lean to the side of making shots count so my glocks all have the factory glock 3.5# connector. For me it just makes me that much more accurate.

You must not know how either weapon functions internally, because if you did, you would know what you said is not correct. That's apples and oranges

I can see your point, but if you are in court, that means you survived your encounter and the perp died... What's that saying? Oh yea, I'd rather be judged by 12 then carried by 6....

Exactly my point. I don't want anybody making those 12 to be made to think "wow...that gun was altered to shoot lighter/quicker...she was LOOKING for a fight in order to put holes in somebody!"
I think altering a personal protection/defense weapon's function in any way can be spun in all sorts of directions.
At the end of the day, I just want to go home to my family.

And skin tone of real blondes doesn't look so great in orange, anyhow.
It washes us out and makes us look a little jaundice-y.

I have never heard of a case such as this. To me that is like saying he was out to kill someone, that is why he was carrying hollow points.

God forbid you have a Punisher slide plate!!!!!

I've never heard of one either...but I don't want to be the test case if it happens!

A slide plate is ALOT different than a internal mod. make the changes you wish, the less I have to explain the better. BONE STOCK here!! I practice stock so its not a big deal for me. pick ur poison

 

[Grelber]

My EDC Glock 26 is box stock.
My range/competition G21 has hoity toity trigger and sights and etc.
Have had no issues with either gun & I appreciate the hoity toity stuff, just prefer stock for EDC for reasons noted previously in this thread.

True!!!

How about a Glock with a 3.5 lbs. trigger and a Serpa holster. Now that is a accident waiting to happen IMO
