Ace Trigger System for Glock

Dealer Release! Please see schedule at bottom of the page.

Over the past three years our R&D Department has been working tirelessly on a new product, and we are pleased to announce the latest addition to the TriggerTech lineup: The Ace Trigger System for Glock handguns.

We aim to offer a step change in performance, reliability and safety for every product we bring to market. We are so excited about the Ace Trigger System for Glock because it delivers by far the largest margin of improvement of any product we have ever launched. We believe the Ace Trigger System redefines what a Glock is capable of.

The Ace Trigger System is comprised of 3 modules:

1. Lever Module
2. Sear Module 
3. Disconnect Module

The first model of the Ace Trigger System is designed to feel like a high-end 1911 and will have a pull weight range of 2.5 - 6.0 lbs. The pull-weight range is achieved through incorporating our CLKR Technology™ into the sear module and providing additional lever and safety plunger springs.

Customer tuning options: 2.5 - 5.0 lbs pull weight range

Users can tune the take up, break weight and reset feel of the trigger to their individual taste. Each ACE System will ship with the Heavy Take-Up Spring installed, plus the Light Take-Up Spring and Light Plunger Spring included. Users can use different combinations of springs to find the right pull weight range, then use our patented CLKR Technology™ to dial-in their own setting.

Performance

The Ace Trigger System’s performance gains are so dramatic because we completely reengineered the mechanics of how the trigger functions. We did this to eliminate the parasitic movements that are detrimental to trigger performance in all existing Glock triggers. 

1. We don't use a one-piece connector. We designed a separate disconnect feature and stand-alone sear, which enables us to use our Zero Creep Roller Technology.
   
2. The firing pin safety is now on a true pivot vs. a conventional ramp that caused grit.

Then, we added the features that we are known for: 

1. Zero Creep Technology™ utilizes true rolling friction to offer an exceptionally crisp break
2. CLKR Technology™ features an easy-to-access adjustment screw that provides positive feedback enabling you to adjust your trigger’s pull weight quickly with confidence.
3. Three lever styles means that you can find the one that feels and looks right to you

These features come together to significantly reduce the take up and reset distances making the Glock feel more like a 1911.

Here is a trigger scan that shows the true zero creep break and other performance characteristics of the trigger. 

Reliability

We leaned on years of experience to select the ideal materials and coatings to produce a trigger that can stand up to the elements and provide extended service life. Our Zero Creep Technology™ is proven to offer exceptional performance no matter the round count and has an unmatched ability to handle contamination and harsh environments. 

Safety

Safety was a big thing for us to get right on this trigger. Our focus was to drive a step-change in performance without compromising on safety; this is the main reason why this trigger took us over three years to bring to market. The Ace Trigger System includes two new patented safety features:

1. Drop Proof Technology. We designed a proprietary transfer bar that makes this trigger essentially impervious to being dropped, even at very low pull weights.
   
2. Enveloped Lever Safety. We designed a trigger lever safety without the need for a safety blade. The entire lever now acts as the safety, while providing the performance feel of a solid monolithic trigger face.
   

Here are some real-world drop test demonstrations on a prototype version that was set at 2.0 lbs. 

The Ace Trigger System is compatible with and Gen 1 – 5 Glocks in standard frame 9mm & 40S&W and can be installed in under 2 minutes without any fitting or filing.

Gen 5's will require a small frame tab to be removed. 

Gen 1 – 5 compatibility is made possible by our wire EDM transfer bar, that allows us to hold exceptionally tight tolerances. 

The ability to change the take up spring and the firing pin safety spring means that the take up, break weight and reset feel can all be tuned to the user’s preference. Overall, the system can be adjusted from a low end pull weight of 2.5 lbs all the way up to a high end pull weight of 6.0 lbs. 

We are taking no short cuts in the manufacturing of this trigger. The EDM transfer bar is a great example of the lengths we have gone to make this product the best it can be.
