Glock 17 Trigger Pull Weight

[BuddyHollyDied]

Well I thought I would never buy a plastic gun but now I just gotta have one for some reason.

Since I know little about this gun and I am not able to fondle one before buying, I have a couple questions before I make the purchase.

What is the trigger pull weight on these guns ?

...and what is that extra "inner trigger" deal on the trigger ? a safety of some sort ?

Thanks to all that reply....

Pretty sure stock weight is 5.5lbs , and yes the lil bar on the trigger is a safety . You cant pull the trigger without engaging that lil bar 1st.

I havent tried because it doesnt bother me enough but its probably possible to knock out the pins and remove that little safety. I really dont see how its a safety in the 1st place...

stock trigger pull is what scully said but if its a range gun I would ditch that and get te 3.5# diconnector. After I got mine my groups improved instantly because stock glock triggers are the pitts!

Best $20 and 10 minutes you can spend.

Stock trigger is about 7.5 pounds total. The 3.5# disconector will give you a nice 5.5# trigger pull.

I have a Glock 17 and the stock trigger is 5.5lbs. I had Police Ordnance in Markham put on Glock 3.5lb trigger connector and it was well worth the price. He also put on some Trijicon Night Sights for me which is also a must have as far as I am concerned.

Here is a good article about night sights and whether they are worth while or not:

I may have some terminology wrong but it goes something like this. Add 2 pounds to whatever your disconector is for the total weight of the trigger. Trust me, once the 3.5# is installed the trigger is 5.5 pounds or us Production shooters wouldn't be IPSC legal. My bone stock G17 was 7-.5 pounds out of the box.

I tested mine many times the season I shot a Glock. 5.5# with the 3.5# disconnecter in. I'll let guys more familiar with the Glock explain better... I shoot a USP now.
