Frequently Asked Questions

What is the primary benefit of installing the Double Diamond 3.5 lb. Connector on a Glock?

The primary benefit is achieving a lighter and crisper trigger pull, reducing sight disturbance during firing and potentially increasing overall shooting accuracy. It aims to bring the trigger pull down to approximately 3.5 lbs.

What tools are needed to install the Double Diamond 3.5 lb. Connector?

For the installation, you will need a Deluxe Hammer & Punch Set for disassembly and reassembly. A reliable trigger scale, such as an NRA dead weight trigger scale, is also recommended for measuring the trigger pull weight before and after.

How does the Double Diamond connector differ from a factory Glock connector?

The Double Diamond connector features precision stamping, hand-polishing, and an NP3 coating for reduced friction. Crucially, it has a different lip angle, allowing the trigger bar to drop faster, resulting in a crisper break and lighter pull weight.
