Frequently Asked Questions
Which Glock models and calibers is this trigger compatible with?
The Timney Alpha Competition Trigger is designed specifically for Glock Gen 5 pistols. This includes popular models such as the Glock 17, 19, 34, and other Gen 5 frames. It is not compatible with Gen 1, 2, 3, or 4 Glocks. If you're unsure whether your specific model qualifies, check the generation marking on your pistol's frame or consult with our team at Goodland Guns before purchasing.
Does installing this trigger affect my Glock's reliability or safety features?
No — the Timney Alpha is engineered to preserve Glock's renowned reliability while improving trigger feel. It retains all stock Glock internal parts and springs, and the integrated safety blade functions just like the factory trigger's safety mechanism. The drop-in design means no permanent alterations to your firearm, keeping function and safety intact.
How does a 3 lb. pull weight compare to a stock Glock trigger?
Standard Glock triggers typically break at 5 to 5.5 pounds. The Timney Alpha's 3 lb. pull is significantly lighter, resulting in less trigger-induced movement during the break and faster reset for follow-up shots. This makes it particularly advantageous for competitive shooting disciplines where speed and precision matter, though shooters should practice with any lighter trigger before relying on it in high-pressure situations.
