Thread: Installed NY trigger and now I can't field strip G19

Quote: Originally Posted by Glocks&Ducs Not exactly. The reason the NY trigger pull is heavier is because you are pushing down on the spring as you leverage the trigger bar to the rear.

It isn't just because it is heavier, it is just a...

I did polish up the trigger parts, but I didn't use anything abrasive. If I can smooth metal with felt then I guess it's possible, but I doubt it. I think there's something wrong with the NY spring. I can use any other combination of springs and connectors and it works exactly how it should. A lighter connector gives me a lighter pull, springs work the same way, just like they should, lighter or heavier. Only when I put the NY...

The NY spring is oriented differently within the housing, and reduces...

I had NY#1's, with both the standard and 3.5 connectors, and the field strip is simple, and exactly as described....

The real case for the NY trigger spring, is that it supposedly remedies the "achilles heel" of the Glock, which is of course the coil trigger spring. I tried to like the NY1, but couldnt warm up to it. You'll also notice that after awhile it tends to cause the striker lug to rough up the rear of the cruciform, which can and will cause a negative effect at the point where the striker releases from the lug(trigger break).

You say that you "take the springs out of the NY1's." Do you mean that you substitute the NY1 and 3.5# (-) connector for the standard coil spring and standard connector?

Quote: Originally Posted by BhamGlock When I took the armorers class the instructor had everyone try out the NY1 in their pistols. It wasn't that big of a difference to me, so I don't get why folks on here complain like it makes the gun unusable or something. See above - the part where the gun sometimes won't fire and often won't disassemble and, in between, defeats any attempt to use the Glock trigger properly by staging...

What ended up being the problem??
