I've also experimented with different connectors in order to find a way to get a Glock to have a nice DA type trigger. I tried the Ghost Angel 3.0 connector with the NY1 spring, and I've been pleasantly surprised by how it feels. As the NY1 trigger spring doesn't pull the trigger bar forward and counteract some of the striker spring force, the pretravel weight is heavier. Also, because the trigger bar starts to engage the trigger bar ledge on the connector sooner, the pretravel feel becomes basically absent. The trigger feels very much like a lightened revolver trigger, averaging 6 lbs 7.2 oz on my Lyman, without any discernible wall. I can't comment yet on the long-term reliability/durability of this connector or combination. I've generally avoided most non-OEM Glock parts. Also, I seriously doubt most people buying 3.0 lbs connectors would even consider owning a NY trigger spring, so this combination is probably not thoroughly tested by anybody. That said, I really like the feel, and I hope it proves to be a safe and reliable combination.
