Timney Alpha Trigger for Glock Gen5 – Flat 3 lb Red

Description

Timney built its reputation on rifle triggers, and the Alpha Competition series brings that same feel to your Glock. This one is made for Gen5 pistols like the G17, G19, and G34, dropping the pull weight down to a factory-rated 3 pounds with a crisp, clean break that stock Glock triggers just don't have. The flat-face aluminum trigger sits front and center in a bright red anodized finish, complete with the safety blade so nothing about your gun's basic operation changes.

What Sets the Alpha Glock Trigger Apart

The magic here is in the friction reduction. The trigger bar and sear are treated with an NP3 (Teflon nickel) coating, which cuts down on drag between the moving parts and gives you that slick, consistent feel every time you press. You get a shorter, more repeatable pull and a break that's easy to call, which is exactly what you want when speed and accuracy both matter. Timney also put the Alpha through an independent test where it ran 10,000 rounds with no cleaning or oiling and kept working without a hiccup, so the smoother feel doesn't come at the cost of Glock's legendary dependability.

Installing Your Timney Alpha Trigger

This is designed as a drop-in upgrade that uses all your stock Glock parts and springs, so you don't need a gunsmith or special fitting to run it. One thing worth knowing: Timney relocated the trigger return spring so it wraps around the trigger pin, which means alignment matters during the install. Take your time getting everything seated correctly and you'll be rewarded with a trigger that feels like a custom race gun. Owners regularly report it dropping right into Gen5 frames, including MOS models, and putting a smile on their face after the first magazine.

If you shoot USPSA, run drills, or just want your Glock to feel like the gun it should have been from the factory, the Alpha is one of the biggest improvements you can make per dollar spent. Fits Gen5 G17, G19, G34, and other standard-frame Gen5 pistols.
