Glock performance trigger with vex shoe and striker. Defensive set up.
Radian afterburner and ramjet.
Works and feels fantastic.
Keep up the great work Johnny and crew.
Honestly if you have to do everything perfectly for the trigger to even function properly it’s a sign of poor design in my opinion… the stock trigger does NOT have this issue
Rob Latham teaches; “I hate it when people say ‘Don’t jerk trigger.’ If you’re going to shoot fast of course you will have to slap, or jerk, the trigger. The trick is to hold your pistol with enough strength to keep the gun from moving when you do it.”
and you can be darned sure Jerry Miculek isnt doing what everybody else is.
Might be a good video idea for the more experienced shooters out there. Where are you from?
@@leftyo9589 wait how so?
@@mikeiso8963 you have to watch him, very very closely. Miculeks trigger pull, especially on revolvers is different.
@@leftyo9589 welp I know what I’ll be doing for the next few hours 🔎👀
100% T-Shirt!!!
I have a G47 with the JG trigger shoe, what he says about keeping the finger low on the trigger is true. However about how much finger is not exactly what everyone should do. I run the trigger almost up to the crease in the first joint. That's where I get a straight press without much if any disturbance of the sights.
Next trigger jerk is mostly a statement used by shooters to describe something else that's happening. Muscle tension changing in the grip all the way up to and through through the shoulder will give you “trigger jerk”.
Excellent information, still getting the same excitement and smile every time pulling the trigger on the 4311 crisp break, and the pre-travel is excellent For safety reasons . Thanks again JG . Godbless 🤙🏽 merica !
Came to your shop last week to have mine installed and this video is right on time. Did enough dry firing though to figure it out. Amazing trigger system by the way
Love the shirt . And always awesome work brother. God bless you greatly.
I purchased the full combat trigger kit for a g43x. It took a few dry fire sessions to make the adjustment. Love the trigger! This video would have been helpful when I started my sessions. Love the shirt!
👍
Great Vid Johnny‼️👍
Always appreciate your wisdom man. Any progress getting the vex to work on the Shadow Systems MR/DR 920 yet?
Get the Gen 4 Combat or Competition trigger kit and Vex shoe but do not get the optional striker. Shadow systems has a different firing pin. The last bit is the housing you may want to use the original Shadow Systems housing it varies gun to gun. But most customers prefer transferring our connector into the original shadow systems housing.
great stuff
Excellent content! Love the shirt!

JG triggers have stiff trigger shoe safety tab springs. I've always had to remove the spring and cut out a few spring coils to ensure the rear of the tab tab will clear the trigger shoe opening in the frame. It's the only issue I've ever experienced with his triggers. Thankfully, it's easily adjustable as I described.
@@jpdesimone If viewers would like to attempt what he's talking about I have a video called flat face fixes. Start it at minute Mark 13. Also the reason we do have a stout spring there is because safety is primary.
Nice explanation!
Im going to say this feels like a bug not a feature. Will also say first time using flat shoe on a Glock. Just put it on today. This video is perfect timing lol. Its all good i still have your other shoes so im still rockin.🎉
top little show. 👍👍👍👍
God Bless you Sir.
i have extra large hands and this is exactly why i now avoid flat triggers. i prefer the oem shoes redesigned by Johnny the glock professor.
Glad to see you again Johnny , good explanation .
Praise the Lord! Thanks, Johnny.
👍
That finger placement on the trigger is how I shoot my PPQ in .45 auto. It feels like I have better control of the trigger during reset.
Love the explanations, not just a product demo.you videos are always appreciated.
Wait. In a high stress situation I want the gun to go bang no matter how much or less finger I put in the trigger well! Idk man
Maybe try a sig p320 those go bang and you don’t even a finger on the trigger 😂
Im guilty of pull up high on the shoe. Keeps movement to a minimum for me. Sadly the vex dingus wasn’t compatible for me
I’ve tried all the triggers including JGs etc. I still find myself loving a curved shoe the most. Especially since I have large hands.
Please make a curved trigger shoe ASAP! The aftermarket world wants one without knowing it I promise
Brother I have the prototype in the shop right now I'm calling it the ARC And it's going to be next level
@@johnnyglocks drop sneak peaks man! The curved shoes are so underrated not many companies even make them!
My finger is curved, not flat
This is the only con with this trigger. I wish the safety tab went farther up the shoe for positive disengagement. The way i see it, you might not always have perfect finger placement under stress either in a self defense scenario or competition. I filed my frame to make more room so there is more margin for error for the trigger safety tab to pass by the frame but still fully do its job when my finger isnt on the trigger. Just my 2¢, but what do i know.
When a guy named Johnny Glocks posts a video you watch
Yo Jawny! What’s crackin?
🤦♂️
black on black. wrong
Christ is Lord.
I shoot an Sig, no trigger press needed.
Lol
😂😂😂😂
