Why Choose the Gen 3 9/40 Trigger with Trigger Bar?
Direct-Replace, Gen 3 Geometry
Manufactured to Gen 3 specs for compatible 9mm and .40 S&W models to help maintain OEM feel, timing, and safety function. (Always verify pistol model and generation before purchase.)

Proper sear engagement and polished bearing surfaces support a clean break with a reliable tactile/audible reset—ideal for training cadence and accuracy.
Durable Materials & Finish
Hardened steel trigger bar with wear-resistant finish designed to handle high round counts, dry-fire routines (with snap caps), and routine cleaning solvents.
EDC & Training Ready
Maintains the safety stack and internal geometry typical of Gen 3 designs, supporting confidence for concealed carry (where legal) and high-rep range work.
Smart Upgrade or Refresh
Resolve inconsistent pulls caused by worn striker interfaces, bent bars, or tired return springs when paired with properly maintained OEM components.
Compatibility Note: Commonly used in Gen 3 pattern 9mm/.40 S&W pistols (e.g., G17/G19/G26/G34 and G22/G23/G27/G35). Exact compatibility varies—confirm by model, caliber, and generation.

High-Level Installation Overview

If you’re new to striker-fired internals, consult a qualified armorer/gunsmith. Always use factory-rated springs unless your agency/department armorers approve alternatives.
Maintenance & Best Practices
Keep It Clean: Carbon and pocket debris can slow reset—wipe the bar and bearing surfaces during routine cleanings.
Use Light Lubrication: A drop on contact points is enough; over-lubing attracts grit.
Inspect Pins & Springs: Check trigger housing, trigger pin, and return spring for wear; replace springs on a sensible interval for duty/training guns.
Function Check Regularly: Especially after any parts swaps or deep cleans.
