    Does your trigger bar look like this perhaps?

    Waaaay out west.
    7,900 rounds through my G17 Gen 5. Trigger is great. I did put a 3.5# disconnector in it a few months ago and make sure I clean the gunk around the right side trigger bar every few thousand rounds.

    Data point: trigger went to pieces G4G26. Turned out to be the striker channel liner.

    I had my g43 trigger bar flake in only about 400 rounds. I never experienced that on any of my other glocks. Started feeling like a 12lb trigger with a wall from hell.

    Glock 19 gen 4 trigger started getting bad after a few thousand rounds, I replaced the striker spring but also noticed some pretty decent gouging on the bottom side of safety plunger where the striker meets. Replaced both at the same time so I'm not sure which one fixed that issue.

    I usually just lubed my glocks per manual, but as others have stated I've started using tetra or lucas grease on my connector. Seems to slick up the trigger pretty good for awhile.

    I was having a gritty/crappy trigger, so I pulled the trigger components out and hit them with some flitz, which was okay. The biggest improvement came from polishing the right side slide stop, that contacts the trigger bar. There’s still some hitch once I hit the wall, and I noticed there’s and issue with my channel liner, so I’m gonna see if my armorers can fix it today.

    Mark me down in the flaking trigger bar column. My 19.5's trigger started to deteriorate near the end of the 2K challenge. When I detail stripped it, the problem became obvious. A new trigger bar fixed my problem.

    Not sure if it's trigger bar flaking, but my gen 5 has a trigger that I would describe as "marginal"

    Now I’m interested in hearing if ANYONE has a high round count Gen5 with NO trigger issues...

    This makes much sense to me, I have felt that Glock's internals were very poorly finished since my Gen 3/4 examples. So none of the consumer production guns have DLC internals?

    FWIW, I'm taking the gun to Smyrna over lunch today. Fortunately I live close enough to do this!
