Gear Review: Ghost Inc. Evo Elite Trigger Connector for GLOCKs

I had to post this if for nothing else than have an opportunity to post a pull-quote from the review:

Unlike losing my virginity, installing the new Evo Elite trigger connector in your GLOCK will take longer than one minute.   :rotfl:

And don’t say, “why didn’t you just buy a different gun?”, or I will turn this car around right now and no one gets any ice cream.
This is the best modification I’ve ever made to a GLOCK and, unlike losing my virginity, it was good for both of us.

Interesting, I don't have a problem with my trigger though.  At least I don't realize that I have a problem with my trigger.  I would have to feel it on someone elses Glock before I would do it to my own.  Might be fun to try to install something though.  Then do a hack job then have to go to a gunsmith anyway.

I'm thinking about this one -- I really am. I'd love to know if someone gets one so I can try it.

But is it a consistent pull or is there a lurch at the end -- like mine?

I'm guessing there is a "sticky" spot.

Never really noticed one, but then I have been shooting this gun for years so even if there is, I may just be used to it.

You might want to have that looked at...  Sticky point / lurch could cause significant inaccuracy

It could turn into a legal nightmare, like using reloads for personal protection.

Your icons indicate that you are so in agreement that you wish to strengthen your forehead by repeated slaps, THEN to prove your forehead is strong enough, smash through a brick wall?

This topic prompted me to detail strip my 26 for a spring cleaning.

I'm not making any custom modifications to my E.D.C. Glock. It could turn into a legal nightmare, like using reloads for personal protection.

You need a diagram to tell you how to put your Glock back together? *sighs*

I have the regular "ghost 3.5# connector" in my glocks...   it makes a pretty big difference.  I am sure this latest product is even better...   I would grab it, but the $40 price tag is a little high IMHO.

I didn't really use the mat, I used this:

I was looking into this a little further and they also have an "EDGE" kit that requires no fitting at all.  It says something like the best drop in bla bla bla.  But the "EVO" that requires minor fitting says it is the best, not the best drop in, but the BEST.

So the EVO > EDGE?  Except you have to do some "minor fitting" for the EVO.  I am wondering how difficult it really is to do that minor fitting.  Their website says it's straight forward and most customers do it.

Any opinions if it's worth the fitting for the EVO to eliminate the over travel, or is that not really even a big deal?  Being that I haven't shot for very long or used a ton of different guns I don't know how important that really is.  Anybody have any opinions on that?

Ended up getting the "Ultimate trigger kit"

It got rid of all the over travel, smoothed it out a little but the "hump" still exists it just isn't as pronounced.  Was under $29 with tax at CQT.
