Glock Ultimate trigger stop/Tungsten guide rod Q

[The Baron]

Can someone explain to me what exactly the "Ultimate Trigger Stop" does, and (in your opinion, of course) is it a worthwhile upgrade? Does anyone know if it's a permitted modification to use for IDPA?

Also, it the extra weight of the tungsten guide rod really effective in reducing recoil/muzzle movement? How about that mod for IDPA - is it permitted?

If I remeber correctly, it allows you to adjust, and eliminate any up take. Once adjusted properly I believe it'll set the trigger back to the same, or very close to the reset position, so every shot/pull is from where it would normaly ''click''/reset. I had one for my Gen 3 and Gen 4 and never got around to installing them. From what I remeber they had to be adjusted and then re-adjusted..... didn't have the patience..... sounds like a cool add on, though.

I can't comment on the trigger stop, but the tungsten guide rod reduced the felt recoil noticeably on my G17. I have no idea if it's IDPA legal though.

I find the tungsten guide rod makes a difference but I think it would not be allowed in Enhanced Service Pistol as tungsten is heavier than steel I think.

From IDPA rule book:

11. Full length guide rod manufactured of material that is no heavier than common steel.

It would not be allowed for Stock Service Pistol for sure.

Doesn't work in IDPA for any of the pistol divisions. Doesn't reduce muzzle rise much either.

Take care

Thanks! I guess a steel guide rod is what I'll get.

The Ultimate Trigger Stop would be legal for ESP Division but not for SSP.
