What aspect of it improved?I just dropped the Apex kit into my new Gen 5 34. It’s an improvement, but it still needs some work to be good. I have some springs coming that I hope will help. Also plan to do a little polishing as well.

Mainly just the feel of the trigger shoe. I have never cared for the feel of the factory Glock trigger shoe. I dropped in the Apex connector as well so it may be a little lighter but not much. Hoping the 4.5lb striker spring and reduced power plunger spring will help a bit as well. Some additional polishing of the normal spots would likely create an even smoother pull.What aspect of it improved?
Sorry, don't have a gauge, but if you are ever in Clayton happy to meet up so you can check it out.Didn't happen to gauge the before and after trigger pull by chance?
Removed grittiness, less initial take-up less stacking, I don't think it is any lighter. As Harold said the trigger shoe is what I was mainly concerned with, any other improvements was gravy.What aspect of it improved?
Nope, not a trigger snob at all. Maybe that would change for me if I had some trigger time with some guns that had modified or changed out triggers. I might see the light, then.
OK, now I can see why someone would want to maintain the "trigger safety" feature, if they're intending to compete in USPSA, because of the rules.
HOWEVER...having looked up the Glock safety feature descriptions, and looking at diagrams/pictures of the internals, I was under the impression that the "trigger safety" didn't actually have anything to do with it being drop safe.
The firing pin is blocked by spring loaded firing pin safety, which is only moved into an unblocking position when pulling the trigger or racking the slide. Additionally, the trigger bar nominally rests on the drop safety shelf and does not move to expose the firing pin lug until the trigger is pulled (or the slide is racked).
One could argue that the trigger safety is what makes the gun drop safe, but a moving trigger isn't what causes non-drop safe semi automatic guns to go off when dropped in the first place. If you removed the "trigger safety", the Glock would STILL be drop safe.
The trigger i have is called the The EDGE competition Trigger System.@garvin has a fantastic trigger in his Glock. It was remarkable, but I don't remember the name of it. Maybe he can chime in.
And, it's a nice one. It feels very good and has a short re-set.The trigger i have is called the The EDGE competition Trigger System.
Got the SSVI Tyr trigger in. It's also nice. Can't decide which aftermarket I like better. Stock on top, then the Tyr, then the Overwatch Precision

If you have longer fingers, the SSVI is for you. I prefer the Overwatch...it just feels better to me. The straight trigger shoe is definitely a good change in my book. I'd be happy with both, but for now I choose the Overwatch .So what's the verdict on your fav? Any new thoughts? After shooting the Overwatch, I'm looking at triggers now...
