Timney Triggers Alpha Competition Straight Trigger

No, this specific Alpha Competition trigger is engineered exclusively for Glock Gen 5 models, including the G17, G19, and G34. It is not compatible with Gen 4 or earlier generations due to differences in the trigger housing and safety systems.

You can absolutely install this yourself. It is designed as a true drop-in component that utilizes your existing factory parts, so no specialized gunsmithing or permanent modifications to your pistol are required.

The factory Glock trigger typically breaks between 5 and 6 lbs. By installing this Timney trigger, you are reducing that pull weight to a consistent 3 lbs, which creates a much lighter, more responsive feel that is ideal for competition or precision shooting.

Yes, the straight-blade design provides a more ergonomic interface for your finger. It allows you to place your finger lower on the trigger shoe, which increases leverage and helps you achieve a straighter, more consistent pull compared to the curved factory shoe.

The Teflon nickel coating is highly durable and specifically applied to the trigger bar and sear to reduce friction. While all moving parts experience some wear with heavy use, this finish is designed to maintain its lubricity and smooth operation for the lifespan of the trigger.
