    "....3rd Gen Glock 19 Exo....Has a ghost 3.5lb connector, Wolf 4lb firing pin spring and heavier trigger reset spring from Glock original pieces included."

    The 3.5lb connector is the trigger pull, but what does the Wolf 4lb firing pin spring do? How would that affect shooting? And the heavier trigger reset spring? Does that 'push' the trigger against your finger with more force after firing? Does it make it easier to 'ride the trigger', or is it better for 'slapping'?
    Basically, what kind of shooting were these changes made to accommodate?

    Thanks.

    a basic competition trigger, but without an extended striker you might get some light strikes on the primer. you could leave those parts in except change out the striker spring for a facotry one and be good to go.IMO

    Keep the 3.5 disconnect and swap back to original springs if you are ever going to carry it for defense.....
    The trigger will break at 3.5 pounds and still keep Glock perfect reliability.....
    The EXO you have breaks at 5 pounds.....
    The guys at Elmore's Firearms can fit a 3.5 Ghost to your 19 for around 50 bucks... maybe less...

    The heavier Trigger Reset Spring pulls back on the trigger bar, so it actually lightens the trigger reset. (ie the trigger push against your finger is less, reduced after firing.) Problem is, at times the heavier Trigger Reset Spring lightens the reset so much, that when the trigger resets, the trigger safety does not pop out like it should. I have 3 Glocks, with the Scherer connectors, and can only safely use the heavier trigger reset spring in the Glock 21. This situation may change if you are using a stock Glock 5.5# Connector or a heavier firing pin spring
