All good points. But i dont necessarily want a lighter than 4.5 lb trigger. I just wanted a 4.5 lb trigger. Yet this one feels heavier than my new-ish Gen4 G22.

With Glock internals being stamped rather than machined from bar stock there is a variance between each pistol in one direction or the other due to less precise tolerances being possible with that production method. I have seen stock Glocks with trigger pulls ranging from just over 5 pounds to 6.5 pounds. Some get lucky and the parts yield close to the advertised weight while others have a pull heavier than advertised sometimes by a large margin.

As mentioned all blue label pistols come with the standard connector (unmarked 5.5 in the Gen3 and the 5lb connector marked with a "." In the Gen4) so a blue label 34,35, etc will always have a heavier pull than a civilian model.

Just FWIW, the DOT connector produces a 5.0-lbf pull in a pre-Gen4 pistol and a 5.5-lbf pull in a Gen4 pistol. Glock officially calls the DOT connector a 5.5-lbf connector because it was developed solely for use in Gen4 pistols to give the same standard 5.5-lbf pull that the UNMARKED connector produces in pre-Gen4 pistols. So...Glock's armorer's parts list

https://us.glock.com/documents/FRM-72-26.xls

shows TWO 5.5-lbf connectors...DOT and UNMARKED...with the DOT connector intended only for use in Gen4 pistols. Glock puts sales restrictions on the DOT connector because it produces in pre-Gen4 pistols LESS than Glock's standard pull of 5.5-lbf.

Me either; And I also never head anything about a "LEO package"; My LGS is a great bunch of people and I'm sure would have given me any kind of a "price break" that's legal; I was told that......"if you are a LEO, retired LEO, employed security guard, a "break" is available; I'm not any of those things, so I paid full price for my G-34 (which included 3 magazines, steel front and adjustable rear sights.

Sir, I am not surprised if you do not know about law enforcement pricing since you are not law enforcement. But if you go to any Glock authorized police distributor gun store and ask for the law enforcement packaged Glock, aka LEO package, after showing your credentials you would be offered a Glock with 3 mags for about $100 less than the best price you'd see anywhere else. Its literally a different SKU with 3 mags in the box instead of 2. From what I gather here, and from Googling the prices just now, it seems equivalent to Blue Label pricing. Maybe its all one in the same now. Btw, most LGS are not Glock authorized police distributors, and they would not be able to offer the LEO package. Most big cities have one such gun store and that is where all the local and state LE tend to buy their Glocks, and other LGSes would tell you straight up they cannot match it. With Blue Label nowadays, I dont know which gun stores can or cannot offer it.

Blue Label pricing varies on how you qualify.

Law Enforcement agencies pay the lowest Blue Label price, because they are exempt from Federal Excise taxes on firearms.

LEO's, military, first responders are in the middle.

GSSF members pay the highest Blue Label prices and here is a link to those prices.

Blue Label firearms come with 3 magazines, except for sub-compacts. This was a bonus on the Gen 3 models, but not so on Gen 4's that would have come with 3 mags anyway (except sub-compacts)

The Blue Label Gen 4 34, 35, and 41 that I own came with 5.5 "." connectors. My 34 and 35 also had extended slide releases and standard mag releases. There isn't a Glock OEM extended slide release or mag release part for the 41.

Purchased a Blue Label G22 Gen 4 about a year ago with coupon received for GSSF membership. $425.00 plus local sales tax. It came with 3 mags and a 8 lb + marked connector. The pull weight was 8 -9 lbs. Replaced the trigger and bar with a Gen3 and a OEM minus connector. It is now in the 5-6 lb. range.

Thats crazy heavy.
I am frustrated because I bought the MOS specifically on the G35 because a lighter 4.5lb trigger would make the red dot sight easier to use accurately. Instead I have a Blue Label with a trigger that feels at least 5.5lbs or heavier.
I will buy a trigger pull gauge to find out.

I see you have been through Glock's armorer course, so you'll already know this; there are a lot of things that can done to various guns to reduce the trigger-pull weight; and using those "modified" guns in competition will quite possibly offer you an advantage; however.......if you ever have to use that gun for SD........IMHO it would be a very good idea to return that gun back to the way that Glock built it in the first place PRIOR to shooting anyone with it.

If you ever have to shoot someone with it, there's a very good chance that you'll end up in front of a Judge; but the Judge isn't the biggest problem here; the biggest problem will probably be the el sleazebag attorney representing the "family" of the "dirt-bag" you just had to shoot in self defense; and trust me......if the trigger pull-weight is ONE oz less than Glock advertises it or builds it, YOU will be "UAC" (up a creek) If you doubt me, just ask Mas Ayoob.......

If you read my post you will see that I am talking about my competition guns,and not my carry guns.

I've wondered from time to time what I'd discover if I took a trigger pull gauge and tested a lot of brand new Glocks at various dealers in my area.

I believe I'd get measured pulls way over 4.5-5.5 lbs, with a curve starting around 5 lbs on the low end going upward to 8 or 9 lbs.

Are there any armorers here who can speak to this?
