There is consensus in the firearms community that the stock Glock trigger (while serviceable) is far from perfect. It has a mushy take-up followed by an underwhelming break and average reset - far from ideal by today's standards.

Some are designed for concealed carry pistols, whereas others are fine-tuned for precise competition shooting. The following are our picks for the best replacement triggers for Glock handguns.
