If you feel a click in the take-up it's your plunger spring. Take it out and twist the spring 90 degrees and reinstall the plunger and striker. Test by pushing down the plunger until the click is gone.
I can not believe how easy this was to do. These nail files were amazing and made all my part shine. Trigger take up is extremely smooth and the reset feels great. I don’t think it reduces trigger pull at all but you definitely notice how much it smooths up the action. Well worth it.
Glad it went well for you. Cheers.
It’s easy to do because this humble marksman probably did this hundreds of times.
I once tried a drop of hoppes elite t3 on the connector. Actually made the trigger (even after polishing) much smoother.
Man, this made a lot more of a difference than I was expecting. I had some free time and thought why not, but I think I’m going to have to polish everything now.
Just need to throw on some olive oil and it’ll be ready for the range.
Castrol GTX Full Synthetic 5W-30. As you approach 10k rounds, I recommend switching to the "high mileage" mix. 👍
I used Rotella T6 5w-40 because it's JASO rated, but I still have the old Ballistol on the shelf...
Thanks for a great video!
I use liberal tears and melted snowflakes to keep my glock running smooth ! Gets a little glitter on your hands but I can live with that!
Merry Christmas to you and yours
🎅🎄🇺🇸
Snowflakes are very seasonal. Gonna have to figure out something for summer
I use that unicon rainbow shit.
Another underated thing that smoothens out the gun in general.is the frame rails and the inside slide channel. Can make a glock feel so much smoother and cyclic feel of a much higher end gun. Performance difference....ah not sure, but feel which to me equates to alot does something.
I did this on my CZ's. I'll have to bust out the dremel and try it on the Glock.
Never thought about all those points of friction. Thank you.
Look at Johnny Glock educational videos! His videos show how to remove/ polish the friction points using step up sand paper , not changing the geometry but all these parts are stamped parts they have burrs on them polish alone does not remove the burrs sand paper does
Use black marker on those parts, shoot 50 rounds, take it apart and polish the parts where black marker is gone.
I use a light coat of a general gun grease then a couple drops of Mobil 1 before shooting. You can also pull out the gen 5 trigger parts and use a gen 4 housing with gen 3 trigger bar. Gives you lots more parts choices!
I haven’t played with older gen parts in a 5 frame. I know a gen 3 bar on a gen 4 was an improvement - May be worth messing around with
Really helpful. Take up and reset are now much smoother. Thanks!
Glad to hear it helped!
The nail file idea is brilliant!!!! Got amazing results from this technique. No real need to buff to a mirror finish. Just do the areas you need.
No it's not . Glock parts are already mirror shined under the surface treatment they put on them, if you want to see it you can just use a micro fiber rag and some gun lube . The nail file is damaging the treatment and "electroplate"
@@Drawde907 I’m not sure that’s an accurate statement.
@@essray that shiny is like an electroplating they put over the the metal if you shoot one long enough you'll get through that coating ,You can usually see things like the plunger chip off first , it's one of the reasons they change the design. When you take a file to it you're speeding up that process , You can literally take a rag with nothing on it sitting there watching TV and shining up to a mirror finish with little effort. Try it. And I know he's not exactly using a file but that grit in that nail buffer just isn't necessary. You're not going to get any more benefits over shining it up with the rag . trust me I've screwed up plenty of parts since the '80s.
@@Drawde907 the multiphase process definitely helped smooth out the trigger on my slimline’s stamped OEM parts. Removed all the imperfections.
The gen 5 trigger shoe doesn't really contact the frame, it is sandwiched between the steel of the ambi slide stop. So in addition to the frame, you can polish the inside surfaces of the ambi slide stop down by the little coil spring. And.. both sides of the shoe itself, as he mentioned, hope that made sense.. spend some time with you glock learning its functions.. if there is friction, reduce friction dont be scared to do this.. just take your time..
Tried a lot of oils and cleaners over the years. Some worked better than others. Most did ok, but I never saw any miracle lubricating properties, oils that penetrated or seasoned the metal, or made the gun noticeably easier to clean after firing. More than anything a oil that stays in place and does not dry up or get sticky is important to me. I get rid of the ones that do that.
Astroglide all the way. No need for a trigger job just shove some astroglide in there and it instantly makes it like a Wilson Combat 1911 trigger.
Hmmm.
I covered my Glock in Astroglide and it moaned and asked me for pictures of my feet. Did I do something wrong??
@@beardly0121 yeah mine was acting weird to all my bullets just fell out the barrel 😐
Thats what she said
Bostik BladeCote. This is used by woodworkers on their table saw blades to reduce friction and prevent rust and build- up of contaminants.
Thank goodness I have granite counter tops so in my household kitchen so I can do a trigger polish also we do have bacon grease to lube afterward or put in a shake
I forgot to mention how important those are?
It was a success on the g48 , never thought the mag catch would effect anything but by god you’re right Humble . The ghost connector and polishing job dropped the tigger pull weight from 5.5 lbs to 4.25 lbs I’m completely satisfied Humble . Biggest thing was hang up on the new safety plunger design and striker engagement point . Now next improvement will be a overwatch dat polymer trigger that’s as far as I want to go since it’s my edc . Not sure the Overwatch trigger is going to make that much difference , but wanted to try something different. Thanks Humble your the bomb of The Tube . K
glad it worked for you. Cheers.
I’m having the same issue with my 48 mos. The trigger pull is very heavy. Started with a agency flat trigger and a minus connector the switched to an OEM trigger with OEM minus connector. Both stayed 6.5 lbs. I’m trying the ghost edge connector next. I don’t want to mess with springs because it’s my carry. But I would love to get it down to 5lbs. If I get desperate I’ll have to send it to Johnny Glocks for him to do a full work up on it.
I have been thinking about trying linkite. It’s used in airplain engines to reduce friction. Supposedly, the metal actually absorbs the linkite
Even a highschool graduate knows metal isn't porus and won't absorb
Sticker fire Polymer guns can always use a little extra polishing. If you enjoy the feel of a fine tuned trigger , these are the steps to take. Add a M☆Carbo trigger spring kit and you'll be really liking the trigger. No need to spend big $$$. A little time and effort and a few bucks for a good spring kit and good buy gritty Glock trigger hello Butter ! 😁👍
I haven't messed with the M Carbo kits.
Had a distinct two stage trigger on mine, after polishing it went away. Still some mush before it breaks, but much nicer. The files were quite handy, but I suggest buying two as mine lost it's grit quite fast. Great video!
Thank you for the instructions. I quess I am old school but Break Free has been good to me. Take care!
That's not bad stuff at all.
I use a combo of Quantum fishing reel oil and grease. Both are called hot sauce and are a synthetic so even if you want to use just the oil it will stick around for much longer and will not corrode polymer, plastic or magnesium. I have been super tuning reels for much longer then firearms so maybe there are better options but I like the stuff.
Very cool. I always wanted to see exactly what is done in .25 job. I like Wison combat thin oil. A few years ago, I took my G17 apart and would fine sand and polish points where parts rubbed together and discovered that frame to trigger bar surface too. It seemed to really smooth out the feel of the trigger. I love the plunger spring change...and shortened spring too.
I don’t pretend it’s going to make magical things happen/ but it’s an advantage I know will be there when I am competing
@@TheHumbleMarksman Exactly. Whenever I pull the trigger on it, then compare to a stock Glock..it feels that much better.
Very informative and professional, Thank you!
I hope it helps - Cheers.
I've found the phlegm after orange juice, the smegma like consistency, you know the one, works best for lubin a glock trigger.
Eww
70w gear oil.
This was the first "mod" I did to my Glocks. Interesting to see the extra contact point introduced by the Gen5 ambi SLIDE-STOP. LOL. I know you corrected it in the beginning. Still funny.
Ghost recommends against doing this, however I purchased their trigger bar, and it literally made my gun not fire. Did several reinstalls of it until I threw my stock one back in. Moral of story, I don’t trust any ghost products or what they say. Thanks for the video
I use 10w 30 synthetic oil. A quart lasts a lifetime. It's designed to have metal to metal contact. An engine puts more use on the parts rubbing in 5 minutes than a firearm would ever see. It doesn't smell. Most of the other oils are mineral or vegetable oil. I use lithium grease on rails.
I was using this for a while with a good result - it's decent stuff. Lithium grease didn't do me right in cold weather with a weak magazine spring - so I'm sticking with oil.
Thanks for that! Trigger is much smoother. Feels more like my gen 3 now.
Awesome man - glad to hear it. If you are OK with lighter triggers you might try the TTI Grandmaster connector - it's pretty great.
Curious if you ever tried a Johnny Glock trigger? I'm considering using his "KIT15" today for black friday for 15% off. It's hard for me to spend that money though when I really like Glock's trigger after polishing, and there's ammo to be had.
BTW, far and away, the slipperiest substance known to man is engine assembly lube. It's viscous as slightly heated honey, will cling to where you put it. Much better than oil or grease in terms of slickness and viscosity. Try the red permatex; you won't be disappointed.
Awesome video. Thanks. I'll go give it a try!
Hard to come by but German Unicorn tears makes the best trigger job lube -- need to use only a little and lasts a long time.
Very helpful David, thank you.
Sweet video Humble, I will apply this knowledge to all my Gen 5 ! K
Hope it helps!
Those Glock internals are already slick and shinny under the surface treatment, if you just take a micro fiber rag and whatever oil your using it will mirror shine everything.
Taking a file to the "electroplating" Glocks using is damaging those parts and unnecessary.
We will call it the .50 cent trigger job as nice detail on it....Merry Xmas and stay safe....Good stuff.....
Merry Christmas!
Fantastic video, thanks for posting!
hope it helps!
Thanks brother will do this just picked up a Gen 5 19
I just bought one too do you have any tips on cleaning materials
Generally use Ballistol for everything from polys to levers
The glock minus 3.5 connector has a nice rolling break.
Very small quantities of Hoppes 9 or Nano oil for the rails. And, to protect from rust the external side of the slide I use Frog Lube.
That's not a bad combo.
Great advice brother!
Cheers - hope the P80s are hanging tough!
I use Liqui Moly LM47 on mine.
Use MY custom lube. Base is Liqui Moly 10-60w racing oil, syn ATF, Ceratec, lithium stearate, Hopes no.9
If you have engine assembly line, try that. I've not found anything more slick than engine assembly.lube.
I use 5w20 synthetic mobil one high mileage oil on my G19
If everybody tried motor oil for 1000 rounds and then reflected on its performance, nobody would buy dedicated "gun oil" of any kind ever again. It's a lubricant people. Reducing friction on small gun parts is easy, and there isn't technology out there that gives any product a discernible advantage.
Nothing but Wharton's jelly for my pistolas. Best lube ever.
Thanks for the video
If your going to go through all that trouble might as well replace the springs and reduce the trigger pull.
Great video quick question I purchased a naked holster it’s pretty much a trigger guard that can clip on your belt but it scratched the finish of my Glock 19and my Glock 26 both Gen 5 so I try to fix the scratches using a bronze brush which help a lot
But the frame (trigger guard ) has a matte color is there any thing I can use to get it to look like the Glock finish Thank you
Love what your doing. Camera angle is good but would love to crop in more. Most of us watch on phones and iPads picture is very small hard to see what your pointing at. Love what your doing
Very nice video.. doing my 25c tj on my glock since 2006.. but you pointed out very nice spot to polish thou.. my G45 gen 5 is on it's on way.. will do your kind of polish job on it.. but... I was wondering IF.. too much of polish will improve contact between polished parts and actually improve frictions too instead of lighten it..mmm.. maybe ?! what's your toughts about that..?
The smoother you can make the metal surfaces that contact each other the lighter the trigger can be conceptually - and the perceived quality of the pull will increase.
Everybody knows Hellman's brand mayonnaise with olive oil is the best polishing compound.
Super Lube. They offer Multi Purpose Synthetic Grease and High Viscosity Synthetic Oil (ISO 100) both will say "With Syncolon". They are food-grade lubricants, meaning they can be used on equipment that manufactures food. I have used this stuff for a long time. It is slippery, offers exceptional sheer resistance, has a wide temperature range (-45 - +450), it's clean, it doesn't stink, did I mention slippery?, it is good stuff. Every custom revolver we build is lubricated with this product. We recommend that our customers use this product. There is also a lightweight synthetic oil they make (ISO46) that's fantastic as well. Buy them all!! I use this stuff exclusively!
Ever notice greenish colored oxidization on the trigger bar and other internals? I have two relative new G17's I bought new and both have it. I haven't seen it on any other Glock I own.
Look I found the boiling of new born puppies produces a concentrated fat. When distelled correctly with a mix of MDMA. You can use it as the perfect overall lubricant for a Glock. Just add a bit of crushed rhino horn on the glocks firing pin channel with the above mix and you achieve less than a 2 pound trigger pull with minimum effort.
That must be a click north of the snake oil I’ve been using. Hopefully they don’t regulate this substance.
Would that sanding be something you could do on anything
Mobil 1 0w-40. The best. And, you can get a life time supply in one quart. $6
I use CLP to clean and lube mine
mobil 1 works very well
I have used it in the past- I agree it’s good stuff
Would not polishing and coating all parts with a dry lube work as good or better than polishing?
Beacon grease yeah great gun lube
Excellent video that’s extremely concise! I like the trigger break of a 1911. Is there a connector that you would recommend that would eliminate the Glock mush and break like a 1911? Thank You! Matt
A polished oem dot connector will come close.
KY gel works great
Eewww
Tri Flo Strait off my trail bike!
Have you ever polished through the Chrome and into the copper? If so what did you do? There are some that say polish through the chrome and through the copper down to the base steel metal and polish it.
No - I don’t want to change geometry of anything just make mating surfaces as smooth as possible
Did you totally smooth the plastic on the frame where the trigger bar rubs against?
If you keep using your trigger then it'll eventually polish up right?
This gun had about 4500 rounds through it when I polished it and there was still an improvement.
Haven’t got around to it , I’ll let you ! K
Very good video, thanks... "Marvels Mystery Oil" where less is more. BTW I run Taurus G2C and T738
That's an actual thing - that's awesome - wasn't aware of it!
@@TheHumbleMarksman www.amazon.com/CD-MM12R-Marvel-Mystery-Pint/dp/B0009JKGKG/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=marvel+mystery+oil&qid=1576633502&sr=8-2
So, don't use LocTite for lube? ;)
Does this actually make a noticeable difference in how often would you have to do this polishing?
Only once
Awesome video! I’m gunna do some work on mine tonight.👍
Hope it works out for you! Cheers!
Have you tried Preparation H ??
Dont use.much grease at all.on a handgun, alot.of.snake.oils out there, frog.lube is disastrous, but most.others do the job. Even criso works well
I'm using Lucas Extreme right now - and it's reasonably good. Spartan Systems Accuracy Oil looks to be ridiculously high performing - but wildly expensive and would that oil even get to the point of failure in a hand gun before evaporating/running out?
Frog Lube (aka Frog Glue) has to be the biggest snake oil deception ever pulled in the gun industry.
I want to do some upgrades for my 17. First order of business was intsalling a lighter trigger. I guess I will try the polish job you demo'd. Would you use a high speed dremel polish wheel for this?
For the final polish only - if you get over zealous and change geometry with the dremel there are problems
A friend has installed the Timney trigger and loves it. Easy to install and he’s never done anything like it before.
This man must be DIYer, Because how could you call the slide stop a Mag catch 2 or 3 times??
there's a reason I don't do how to videos any more.
Which connector is that? Ghost Evo?
it was the Ghost Angel 3.0. I'm using the Glockstore Black Yikes now - I think it's my favorite.
My lubricant is called Tears of the Unicorn.
What do you tell a unicorn to make it cry?
@@TheHumbleMarksman that AOC is coming to take care of it
I usually just use my tears for lubrication after I see the magnificence and perfection that is Glock internals.
OK so I just got a Glock19 so I’m watching a bunch of these videos now. I must say I never wanted anything to do with Glock till very recently. But If your Glock and you know all these people are doing these minor things to greatly improve your product, how do you send out a firearm knowing that these things should be done? I just don’t get it, why doesn’t Glock send these firearms out from the factory with these parts polished in these areas that improve performance?
They aren’t alone in this - most production firearms use stamped or molded parts that have not been smoothed out- I would say it’s the most common practice among duty style guns
It is a matter of maginal costs vs marginal utility (marginal does not mean small, marginal means a change in the total cost caused by doing one more thing). The way these guns are now, the trigger bars are just stamped out of a sheet. It's very cheap, very fast and it produces functional and reliable parts. Stamping works very well when you are making lots of guns very fast. To make these parts smooth would require either a completely different manufacturing technique, or they would have to be filed down, polished and hand fitted by a human employee. That is easy to do for one gun but it's hugely expensive when you are making a bunch of guns quickly.
The increase in total cost would be huge and the increase in the guns performance would be very small. The difference made by the 25 cent trigger job is not day and night. It makes the action smoother but it does not really make the pull lighter. The marginal cost of doing these modifications would be higher than the marginal utility. In simple terms, it would make the guns better to have these done in factory, but not better enough to make them worth the higher price. Would you rather buy a Glock or a hypothetical gun that is exactly the same only it has a trigger that is a little bit smoother (but not lighter) and it costs $200 more? Maybe you would, but most people would not and organizations such as militaries and LE agencies definitely would not.
I just started uspsa so I use my carry gun g19 until I acquire a dedicated competition gun so I don’t want to go heavy on my carry guns trigger is this a safe alternative?
You won’t harm anything by polishing. You’re just polishing the surface, not removing material. It’s still 100% safe afterwards. I did it to my edc and it’s just fine.
Depends on how you define safe, and if you want to carry a modified gun as a carry gun. Based on what I saw, its completely safe. The goal is to smooth or polish the parts to reduce friction.
You can also put a set screw in the actual trigger (the plastic part where your finger presses) on the back side to change pull distance.
The most important aspect to a trigger job isn't the lube. You should of talked about how to inspect and insure all 3 of the internal safteys have not changed of been overridden, especially the drop safety
the purpose of this video was not to do anything that would affect the trigger safeties - simply to smooth it out. You're 100% correct if you start messing with springs or pre/over travel. Then It's worth mentioning.
A thorough trigger job BEATS a “quick” one EVERY TIME
yup!
Does this compromise safety?
If you don’t alter geometry - no
Hawk tue, you got to spit on that thing
Sperm Whale oil. Used it on 1911's in the 70's en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sperm_oil
That sounds like a responsible sustainable source of oil. I dig it.
Great Dane drool, it’s by far the cheapest slipperiest stuff there is.
Whale oil
What you SHOULD'VE done, is taken that $0.50 you spent on a trigger job and bought you some ammo and just gone out and shot the thing! Ain't no fancy gimmick gonna be better than just ammo and practice, Son. Carry on BORTHER!
This is the best comment on my channel ever
Lol.
And to think people have been slicking up people's for decades, if only there was TH-cam for you to tell them better...
Can you buy a round for 50 cents ?
Given the price of ammo and reloading components today, the polishing job is much more cost effective!
Soak the metal in motorkote over night you will be amazed
never tried that - I might test it on a trigger group to see how it does.
Where did you graduate elementary school, 5th grade we learned Metal isn't absorbent.
n00b. Your first mistake was thinking that Glock's need trigger work. Glock's are already perfection(tm), but too much work regardless. For lesser pistols that aren't as perfect as Glock, you just glob some toothpaste into the lockwork and dry fire the pistol a couple hundred times, it'll polish itself! The toothpaste also lubricates as it polishes.
This is sage advice. Namaste 🙏
Sounds wierd but the toothpaste is a good polish. I have also put metal polish on the contact points and fired/dry fired the gun several hundred times with good results.
It a glock , just shoot the dam thing and the trigger bar does not rub on the mag release its called a slide stop its a duty gun not a custom 1911 and as far a lube for it try ky jelly ....... jesus any lube will work just fine
I found a polished gun has a more refined trigger than a fire-fit gun I did zero polishing on. A lot of guys use these guns in competition so they are interested in having a trigger that isn't a disadvantage versus higher dollar guns - which is why this is a thing.
And yes I misspoke - certainly you don't think i call it a mag release on purpose.
WD-40
This was almost click bait. I saw the heading and though, "Best way to polish a glock is to throw it in the toilet bowl with some dish soap. A few flushes later......well it's still a glock but it's a clean glock"
Oh man - this is going to save me literally minutes when it’s time to finally clean guns again
Big Al excellent advice.

Good presentation but rushed. Relax!
Articulate! Well done!
