Striker spring for Glock 48

[soditide]

Hi.

I want to decrease the trigger pull weight of my G48. Could you tell me if the striker spring of a Gen5 G17 works in a G48.

FWIW, I changed the connector in my G48 and cannot say I can feel a difference. According to my scale, there may be a reduction of once ounce.

The stock trigger is better than my other Glocks.

I have not done it to a Glock, but I did cut 4 coils off the striker spring of my FNS and it did reduce the trigger weight.

On a Glock, i would be afraid of a light striker and poor ignition.

My Glock 17 with a 3.5 connecter has a much better trigger then a stock 48

I guess I was lucky with my G48.. I changed the connector to a LWD 3.5# (G43) and its much better. Also reprofiled the trigger to get rid of that annoying high center ridge. flattening somewhat and it is far more comfortable. As mentioned a lighter striker spring can easily result in light strikes, or so I learned the hard way years ago

Ghost claims a 2.5# reduction (compared to OEM) with their 'Edge' connector. <https://www.firearmsoutletcanada.com/ghost-edge-connector-glock-48.html>

Nordic Marksman has many OEM replacement parts, including: 8# '+' connector; 5.5# '-' connector; firing pin assembly; firing pin spring; trigger w/trigger bar; and maritime spring cups.
