    Default NY +1 trigger on my Glock: How can I tell??

    I have a Glock that I bought used awhile back. I love it and love the trigger. Last night I was at a training course and another guy shot it, an NRA Instructor type. He asked what work I had done to the trigger. Another guy confirmed that it felt slightly heavier but far crisper (?) to him as well. My question is, how can I visually determine if work has been done to my trigger and what the work may be?

    If the trigger sucks, it's a regular Glock Trigger. If it really sucks, it's the NY 1trigger spring unit. If it only kinda sucks, it's the 3.5lb connector. (Couldn't help it) I had a G-20 with the NY-1 trigger, it measured about 10 lbs on a gauge.

    The Ny-1 trigger spring unit is olive colored, the 2 is orange.





    You can also look at the connnector. a - sign is the lighter connector and a + is the heavier one.

    I found both triggers to be terrible to me so the triggers are on a scale to me.. The Glock was a crisper suck and the XD was a more mushy suck. They are in the same family, SR9 (heavy suck), Glock (crisp heavy suck), XD( lighter mushy suck), M&P(heavy mushy suck).

    and if you don't want to rip it apart to look inside, it should be on the label on the original box.

    I think I'm going to have to break it open. There is no indicators on the original box. My thought is that it was done after factory. Thanks for the help!

    I'll check it out when I get home. Not sure where it ranks on the suck scale, I don't have too much to compare it to. The instructors exact words were "there is the regular amount of travel, but I think its breaks heavier and cleaner than a factory trigger."

    CORRECTION!
    It was the standard 3½ lb Glock 34 connector with the NY trigger spring. This resulted in a crisp 4½ lb pull.
    Also, the Dillion catalogue is called "The Blue Press".

    Sorry about the error!

    My old G17 is actually a G17L from the mid 80's with the 3½ lb connector. I've never much cared for that light a trigger, so I think I'll try the combo described above.
