Frequently Asked Questions

What is the primary benefit of the Timney drop-in trigger for Glock firearms?

The Timney trigger offers a complete redesign of the Glock's internal trigger mechanism, providing a significantly better feel and a crisper break compared to the factory trigger. It achieves this through a new shoe, return spring, and a housing that alters sear engagement for a more direct pull.

Does the Timney Glock trigger work with aftermarket frames like P80 or Nomad?

Yes, the Timney trigger has been tested and confirmed to work without issues in aftermarket frames such as P80 and Nomad. It performs reliably and feels just as good in these frames as it does in factory Glock models.

What is the purpose of the Johnny Glocks Combat Conversion kit for Timney triggers?

The Johnny Glocks Combat Conversion kit is designed to increase the pull weight of the Timney trigger, which can be as low as 2.5 lbs. The kit aims to bring the pull weight up to a more manageable 3.5 to 4.5 lbs, offering users more confidence and a consistent feel.

What are the potential issues with the Timney Glock trigger's reset?

Some users have reported that the trigger shoe's reset can be slow or occasionally get stuck, especially in frames with tighter tolerances. This is attributed to the redesigned trigger return spring mechanism, which might not be as positive as a factory Glock's reset.
