Much better than stock dot connector.
I previously polished up the stock "dot" connector on my Glock mdl. 22. It was still lacking so I installed a Ghost Rocket 3.5 lb. connector and found it a little too light for carry. I just installed the Ghost 4.5 Ranger connector and it shortened the reset as well as lightened up the trigger for comfortable carry weight.
Would you recommend this?
Yes, I would recommend to a friend
Better than stock.
Easy to install. Definitely shortened the reset. Maybe slightly lightened the pull? Hard to tell. Overall better than the stock Block connector.
My go-to for connector upgrade.
I have played around with stock Glock connectors and this one is better. I've used the lower cost Ghost connector and it had me sold on the brand. Most of the Ghost connectors with exception of certain models are drop-in fit. I've used a total of 2 of these Ranger connectors, and one of the lower priced Ghost 3.5 connector. The finish on these connectors is polished stainless, so unlike OEM Glock connectors you'll be able to use CLP on your pistol without the finish flaking. I'll keep using Ghost for future builds.
I like it
I like this part, took up the slack, made the trigger a little lighter and crisper. Now you know when it gets to the breaking point it will go off with just a little more pressure. Makes the pull consistant every time.
Drop in improvement!
I use this in a Gen4 Glock 26. The Gen4 G26 has a noticeably greater trigger pull stock than a Gen3 G26. Don't ask me why. It is still listed as 5.5lb, but I A-B'd a gen4 w/ a gen3 at the gun store and the difference is notable between the two. This connector brings the gen4's trigger pull back down to below the 5.5lb gen3 and it also creates a slightly shorter and MUCH more noticeable and pronounced trigger reset 'click'. No more mush....you can't miss it. It makes rapid fire so much easier! The added debris hole is just a bonus. :) This upgrade is duty ready and is a no-brainer. Highly recommended! See Brownells videos for instructions on how to install Glock Connectors.
Ghost Inc. Ranger Trigger - 4.5
I installed this unit in my Glock 21SF and was easy to install, no fitting required, and greatly improves trigger feel compared to the stock trigger. It is more weight than the 3.5lb connectors out there but still performs well without compromising too little weight. This part costs little, but makes much improvement of my pistol. A great value indeed.
Significant improvement.
I recently purchased this connector for my Glock 21 SF. While I am partial to H&K, I decided to give Glock a chance and bought one in 9mm (G19) and one in .45(G21). As far as reliability, I could see little difference between Glock and H&K, but the trigger pull on the Glock left a little to be desired. With this connector installed, my 21 is consistently matching and sometimes exceeding the performance of my H&K model 45 in my hands, and the hands of a few of my fellow officers. If you want to smooth out and lighten the pull on your Glock, but still want a heavy trigger for safety, I would look no further.
Nice connector
Nice connector but not a dramatic change. It is a smoother trigger pull with more of a rolling wall vs the hard glock wall. I put this in my g19 and g26 gen 5. The g26 is my edc so didnt want a sub 4lb trigger pull. I havent tested the trigger pull weight but feels very similar to stock pull, just more crisp.
Ranger Trigger
This is super easy to install. Makes a huge improvement on the stock trigger, but is not like a custom competition trigger still uses all other factory components. Only Slightly lighter but more crisp than the factory connector great for a carry gun or home defense. Interested to try the 3.5 for a target gun.
Big improvement over stock
This is a big improvement over the stock Glock trigger. The trigger is much smoother and improves trigger control over the stock mushy, gritty one. I like the one I installed on my G17 that I use for IDPA so much that I'm ordering 2 more for my G23 carry gun and G21SF CDP gun.
