Kinetitech Trigger




The Kinetitech trigger felt like a good upgrade for me.  I've been looking into flat triggers for a while, but as this is for an EDC gun that will bee used competitively on occasion, I took a hard look at my options, and budget was a concern.

I'm not going to lie.  I think the trigger looks slick with the red safety bar installed.  It's nothing over the top, but makes the trigger stand out in a "look at me, I'm upgraded," way.  I like it.  Having shot a stock Glock trigger for most of my days, and then a ZEV spring kit in the gun, I feel a lot of the limitations of that trigger.  It does its job, but nobody is going to argue it is the best stock trigger out there.


After shooting with the Kenitetech trigger for about 3 years, I shot a buddy's Glock the other day with the stock trigger, and the words "man, Glock triggers suck," came out of my mouth.  They work, but there are so many better options than a stock trigger.  The Kinetitech unit had a much more consistent pressure on the pull, a predictable wall, and a definitive break.  To me, Glock triggers typically feel like a mushy squeeze to the break.

The upgraded trigger feels better to me than the stock trigger.  I feel like I get better finger placement and a more consistent trigger press with this system.  The reset is very solid, both to the ear and to the finger.  I found myself better able to isolate the reset of the gun, even while others were shooting and just feeling it through my finger.  To me, this offers a good benefit of feedback when working on shooting at the reset.  I'll have to go shoot some times and see how they look, but I like it so far.  The reset also feels a tad shorter than the stock trigger.

Overall, I'm really impressed by this trigger.  It feels good, looks good, and it flat out works.

I ordered the straightest trigger shoe they made (Style 3 on their website with the polished bar (the whole kit).  Having polished my own Glock internals, the polishing job was good and shiny, even across the surfaces.

In the world of modded Glocks, if you are going to swap your trigger, this is a great option.
