Timney Triggers, Alpha Competition Trigger, Fits GLOCK Gen 5 in 9MM/40S&W (17/19/22/23), Black - ALPHA GLOCK 5-BLACKOUT - 081950615889
Product Description
Achieving a crisp, match-grade trigger break in factory Glock Gen 5 pistols can be difficult due to the standard heavy trigger bar geometry, long wall staging, and heavy reset weight. Standard factory triggers present a spongy press that can cause sight movement right as the striker releases. The Timney Triggers Alpha Competition Trigger for Glock Gen 5 in Blackout (ALPHA GLOCK 5-BLACKOUT) resolves trigger wall resistance and creep by re-engineering the internal engagement mechanism, delivering a clean, factory-preset 3.0 lb break without sacrificing OEM drop-safety integrity.
Featuring a redesigned aluminum trigger shoe with an anodized Blackout finish, the Alpha Competition trigger pairs a straight, flat-face shoe with a safety blade that sits flush when engaged. Unlike traditional drop-in trigger bars, Timney's design utilizes a custom receiver block and sear design that transforms the internal geometry into a true single-stage feel. This results in a fast, crisp wall engagement, zero creep, and a rapid, tactile reset for reduced split times during competition stages and tactical drills.
Precision-machined with Teflon Nickel-coated internal components and heat-treated steel parts, the ALPHA GLOCK 5-BLACKOUT maintains smooth operation through high-volume firing schedules. Designed for drop-in installation in 9mm and .40 S&W Gen 5 Glock handguns, it elevates action performance while retaining factory safety engagement.
