Looks like a well planned system.

How to install

My experience with Glocks is limited to a Glock Gen4 G17 I purchased for my wife after she shot her Court Officer's Gen3 at the range and liked it. Thanks to some ambassadorial work by "Tracker," Teddy Jacobson ("Actions by T") agreed to give it a complete action job, polish the breechface and feed ramp, polish and contour the chamber, modify all engagements including the extractor, and install a "New York Trigger #1" with a Wolff trigger spring, the action of which breaks crisply at 7-1/2 pounds.

That new trigger shown in the videos is impressive, but would one really want to have it installed in a pistol not used for race competition? I'm just asking, not presuming to pass judgment. It just seems to me that using one for EDC would be not unlike carrying a 1911 "cocked" but not "locked" -- i.e., with the safety disengaged. Am I wrong?

Richard  - you may be correct.  I could not see the Glock type safety tab on the new trigger.

 However, I always felt that the Glock Safety System is total BS.  It was just something they came up with to appease Lawyers and administators.  Come on for Pete's sake! You have to put your finger on the trigger to fire the gun.  THAT IS THE SAFETY. Why do  you need to put a safety on the trigger - how dumb.  They say they gun won't fire unless you press the safety on the trigger.  That's right, the gun won't fire UNLESS you PRESS the trigger. 
A safety system touted by liberals.

To prove it really is not a safety, just look at the countless AD's and ND's by our "trained" LE officials alone.

So as not to hijack the thread any further I will start a new post with a surprise for folks.  Glock did not come up with the idea of the trigger safety.

BTW - I do own many Glocks

I really don't know much about the trigger. It was posted on another site I read. I thought people might be interested. When I find something new I like to share it with forum members. I always tell my CCW students to carry guns that have NOT been modified and factory ammo NOT reloads. That said, you and I would not have a problem with the trigger. My personal opinion is you should be an experienced shooter to install it.........Did I cover all the legal bases with that answer? ....If you watch the video at 3:57 he said the trigger has a safety. If watch the installation video on full screen you can see the safety.
