I have been shooting a 1911 pistol for steel, pin USPSA/IPSC for many years (20+ years). For past few months my shooting skills have come to a halt with no improvements. It’s like I hit the wall. Instead of fighting the “wall” I decided to take a break from my 1911 pistols and give my Glock 17 and 34 a try. I’ve been practicing frequently and I see a lot of improvements in past few weeks. One deficiency I have with Glocks is that when practicing Bill Drill my time is quite slow and when I pick up speed the accuracy suffers. It seems that my trigger finger has gotten used to the light and crisp 1911 triggers over all those years and is having a hard time getting used to the Glock’s heavy and mushy trigger.
I currently have the standard 5 lb. connector on my Glocks pistols with standard factory spec springs. I know Glock triggers can be lightened and somewhat crisp by changing the connector and springs but I don’t know enough to try it on my own. I’ve polished all the contact points on my current parts and while it did make the trigger a little smoother it still has long ways to go.
If somebody here knows the “trick” I would greatly appreciate your input and suggestions.
These Glocks are strictly “gamer guns” and not for self defense so I’m not worried about making the trigger too “light”
