Tools needed
A Glock armorer’s punch and a basic bench setup are typically enough, but trigger work still deserves proper hands and proper checks.
Install notes
Timney states this trigger installs easily with no gunsmith needed, but this is still function-critical work. Safe install, proper reset checks, striker engagement checks, and live-fire validation matter. Slapping it in and hoping for the best is how dumb stories start.
Verify before you buy
Verify to prevent returns: make sure the pistol is a Glock Gen 3 or Gen 4 G17, G19, G22, G23, or G34, and choose the correct color: Red, Bronze, Gold, Green, Purple, or Silver.
