Frequently Asked Questions

What are the benefits of the FACTR USA trigger for Glock slimline pistols?

The FACTR USA trigger offers a significant upgrade over the stock Glock trigger by providing a cleaner break, reduced take-up, and a defined hard wall. This results in a more consistent and predictable shooting experience, enhancing accuracy and control.

How does the FACTR USA trigger differ from simply changing a Glock connector?

While changing a connector can reduce pull weight, it may lead to a mushy trigger feel and loss of a hard wall. The FACTR USA trigger achieves its improved feel through a different trigger bar geometry, a modified trigger shoe, and a reduced power striker block spring.

What are the key safety checks after installing a new trigger in a Glock?

After installation, ensure the trigger cannot be actuated without depressing the trigger safety. Verify the trigger bar remains engaged with the drop safe ledge and that the trigger bar's vertical extension does not interfere with the striker block safety when reset.

What is the typical trigger pull weight for the FACTR USA trigger on a Glock 43?

During testing, the FACTR USA trigger on a Glock 43 consistently broke around 4 pounds 2 ounces to 4 pounds 4 ounces when pulled low on the shoe for optimal leverage. Pulling higher on the shoe increased the weight to approximately 5 pounds 4 ounces.
