With previous generations of Glocks I could not get below 4.5 striker spring without getting episodic light hits. Seems to me than Gen5 gives better ignition. Anybody had the same observations?

I have used the 4# FPS which has a trigger pull weight of about 5 OZ. less than a 4.5# spring without issue on Gen 3/4/5 Glocks.
I prefer the trigger reset with the 4.5# spring.

I concur on the earlier generations- below 4.5 spring required a lighter striker for consistent ignition. The Gen 5 is a different shaped tip, that may have something to do with it. Maybe it’s lighter as well.
