- I'm a professional this video is only for education purposes DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DO ANYTHING ON THIS VIDEO!!!!Johnny explains and demonstrates a very efficient and quick way to remove an OEM trigger shoe. Also he shows a device he configured to help him understand more about triggeromerty as well as give him insight with innovative modification.
And when you think you know everything about Glock, a genius like this man appears and you learn a new thing ...
This guy's forgotten more about Glocks then I'll ever know. 💪
What I like most about your videos is that you explain the mechanics of the Safe Action system. Well-done!
Great video!!! As usual you take all the mystery out the Glock and turn it into an educational experience. I’m sooo glad I found your channel. Thanks for all of the information.
Thank you sir. As john Shockley said, you are one of the best kept secrets of the internet. I was blessed to discover you. My glocks are in way better shooting condition and I have been tinkering with Glocks for years. You surely taken me to school and I have enjoyed every minute of it.
Absolutely night and day factory to “Johnny” method and parts!
Wow, that is wayyyy cool Johnny. Neat setup...really brings things into perspective
Johnny, you are also one of the best kept secrets on the tube for the the science of the glock trigger....should have many more subscribers as word gets out. Best of health and success to you.
John Shockley
Thanks John I'm glad people appreciate it
Great set-up on the trigger mock-up, very cool!
Best description of the trigger function I have seen. I didn't know exactly how it worked until I saw your video. Thanks for sharing with us! Subscribed.
It's amazing how much a simple mock-up can help you to visualize the motion.
I always wondered what was making the clock sound during trigger reset. Now I know. Loved the video.
Man this solved my problem of constantly buying trigger bars with shoes and having left over stock triggers and bars now I can use all the bars on my next builds and only buy the shoe. Thanks man.
Thank you sir, you are a MASTER Glock gunsmith.
Well now I know. Thank you. Great video. I like the trigger display you had set up to. Cool concept.
Awesome video. I've always wondered how to do this. This opens a lot of opportunities for changing out the shoes.
Johnny, you should start every video by showing your bench trigger mock-up. You often hold it in your hand to try and educate us about how the various components work together, but I never really got it until now. Just seeing this little visual taught me more about Glock triggers than anything else you've done thus far. Thanks, brother.
your a very good instructor. thank you.
Thanks for sharing! Great instructional video as always. You rock!!

You're welcome
AWESOME!!! Great Video!!!😃 That's an AMAZING Trigger Setup on the Board!!!😃
Very useful and informative video. Thanks.
Really helpful!
THANKS!!
(Total time for this was less than 5 minutes, AWESOME!)
Worked great! Thanks for the tip.
Bro, what the heck man?! Pure Genius. I did not want to damage the stock trigger shoe although I'm upgrading the shoe. Wanted to be able to keep it in good condition for a back up. Thanks man!
Awesome walkthrough. Thanks
Just installed this trigger and combat bar on my 43x along with the 4.5lb striker spring, connector and reduced weight plunger spring. It's like a different gun. Well done Sir👍🏻🙌🏻
Had to order a new trigger housing for mine so I went ahead and got the upgraded connector for the housing and was thinking of changing the trigger as well but my question is can I just remove the factory shoe like he does here and change it that way or do I need a new bar as well? Thanks in advance
very clever. Very good. thanks for sharing.
Such a simple solution explained so well. I did add a step, using an awl to mark a hole location and then drilling *very* carefully to make a 1/16” hole. Just seemed cleaner to me but you do risk drilling into the top of that plastic pin.
Thanks for that little visual at the beginning
You just earned yourself a sub.. that was a great tip.
Thank you very much for this video!
So i can do that to my stock trigger and change it for the JG vex convex trigger shoe?
Thanks for the video it was very helpfull.
That's a nice little jig you made. Great video as always.
Keith Gemmill
Thanks
Thanks so much for this video!! I want to put a flat faced trigger shoe on my Glock, but I want to keep my factory trigger bar.
Will the Glock trigger and bar SP00357 fit the Glock 26 Gen 4? I want the smooth face trigger on my Glock 26
I order a p80 trigger bar that was not letting the pin off the crusifix cross thing so I bent and shaved it too no success lol basically turned it into a auto so I threw it away😅 and orders a few new factory Glock trigger bars and ofcourse it came with a trigger but I wanted my fat trigger on the rams not the round one! I subscribed simply because I was so stumped I asked my girlfriend n she found your video for me thank you G
Your a wizard Johnny!
When u are switching out from a regular johnny Glocks stock shoe to the vex shoe, it doesn’t have a ghost hole on the stock shoe so u can just punch it out?
You're the man! Thanks!
Great vid! 🎯
Excellence thank you Johnny
Thanks. Very helpful.
hello my friend
Your videos are of great value to us Brazilians.
Could you tell me if changing just the glock key for the timney screen and changing the original ghost glock for a ghost edge 3.5lb changes the security (reliability) ? because it will be my weapon of daily use
thanks
How do you get the little hair trigger out of the shoe , I just want to paint mine red
I have a p80 trigger, and it doesn't have the pins that a standard glock trigger has, can i still take it off?
What's your personal favorite trigger setup for an EDC Glock?
Never would have thought of that. had other ideas, not that, priceless!
You made it look so easy. My pins took forever to punch I was hammering for forever 😭
Thanks for the valuable knowledge on how to properly remove a trigger shoe. I wish I'd known this before buying the whole trigger assembly for $175.00 as opposed too just the shoe for $40 which I wanted for a better feeling shoe face.
Who is selling the trigger assembly for $175 and the shoe for $40? That's robbery! A couple of weeks ago I bought genuine Glock trigger bar assembly for $16 from Midway USA. In fact I just checked their current price and it has dropped to $9 for the whole trigger bar assembly. This is November 2022 prices.
you are the glock trigger guru
Thanks for video. Please clarify, doesn't dry firing a disassembled frame cause damage to the trigger safety if done repeatedly?
Thanks for the vids!
Great job Great video.
I recently purchased the oem smooth faced trigger shoe. Will it work with stock connector or do I need to upgrade that as well?
I think I installed that lil trigger safety they goes into the trigger shoe , any tips ?
Love it, beats thinking!
WHATS THE LENGTH OF MAG CATCH SPRING ON THE 3RD GEN GLOCK 19
What if I don’t care about the shoe and plan to toss it? Any particular reason I would not have it over a home when using the first punch?
Johnny, I think you mean a ⅛" punch. Cool demo of the trigger function.
I used a 1/16 " punch.
Great video, will this work with the glock 43x also?
thank you, i was trying to figure out how to do that.
Great info.
Can you just change the trigger shoe on glocks and nothing else? I just want one with a red safety tab but not have to change any other internals
You are a genius thanks
Thanks, subbed!
Enjoy your videos Johnny.
Charles Lawson
glad you do!
Johnny...Great presentation. Could you do a video where you remove the smooth trigger from a Glock 17 and install it on a Glock 43 trigger bar? Thanks...amazing wealth of Glock knowledge. Be well!!
so why are some of these pins backing / walking out on some guns after firing 80 or so rounds.....happened to a friend of mine on his new 30S....thanks.
What if you need to replace the safety on the trigger shoe? Need video on that
Thank you!
I wish he had put it back on, but great video!
Thanks, Johnny! It's the little tricks like this that differentiate the professional from the hobbyist, or the ignorant. I helped a friend put an Apex trigger shoe on his G17, and Apex's recommendation was to just drive the pin through - destroying the OEM trigger shoe. Seems to me a lazy way to tell people to do it, and not terribly professional. Thanks for keeping it classy.
you all prolly dont give a damn but does anybody know of a way to get back into an instagram account?
I somehow forgot the password. I would love any help you can offer me!
@Jaxtyn Zachary Instablaster =)
@Emmanuel Alexzander Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and Im in the hacking process atm.
Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Emmanuel Alexzander It did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thanks so much you saved my account :D
@Jaxtyn Zachary glad I could help xD
Glock genius indeed!!
Thank you.
Hey brother. Are all Glock trigger shoes the same? @JOHNNY GLOCKS
This video made me think if it would be possible to change the Timney trigger’s show wirh the OEM Glock to make IDPA SSP legal Timney trigger! Of course it would require some modifications to retain the Timney’s Trigger spring but it might work!
the way i do it so as not to break it by hitting too hard with a hammer is by using a very small drill bit. just measure where the pin is located on the blind side and rotate the drill bit with your fingers. the plastic is very soft. when you see the pin inside the hole you strike it slowly with a tiny punch or nail. out it goes!
Could you do a video on how you made that trigger jig?
Justanotherguy I'll put it on the list
can you make a video polishing the firing pin safety on the GEN 5s? thank you for the videos
Same as any other glock gen
Awesome trick to remove the shoe without ruining it.
Thanks.
3:35 THATS WHAT SHE SAID LMAO XD
awesome !!
Hey Johnny after you take the OEM trigger shoe pin out and then back in will the pin stay in during shooting? Some people have said once the OEM trigger pin is taken out the shoe is useless because the pin will back out. Thank you
If you use a tiny (like 1/16") punch, you won't loosen up the pin hole enough to cause the pin to back out. It's all in that initial disassembly... take your time to do it right, with a very small punch, and then only move the pin the minimum amount necessary to remove the trigger. If you do those two things, you can re-use the shoe successfully.
That was way way smaller than a 1/4" punch ...thanks for showing how to do this.
Yeah I know slip of the tongue brother
love your trigger in my 34. is their a way to remove the trigger safety so I may make in come out more. so It sticks out more. right now I am able to pull the trigger without pressing on the trigger safety.
Never mind. I found your other video.
BW dude yes but why in the cornbread hell would you want to only making a shitty trigger worse by doing that removing it completely is the only way to improve a glock
Am I missing something? 1\4 punch? That looks like a 1\16 punch?
Hey Johnny, will a gen 3 shoe fit in a gen 5? Just the shoe thats all
Yes but you won’t be able to use Ambi slide release u have to replace it with a GEN 3/4
The GEN five trigger shoe where the pin goes in is a lot skinnier to accommodate the ambi slide release
Dude............FN THANK YOU lol 👍👍
Are the trigger assembly the same in g42/43
Matt Vargas Yes 42/43 same
JOHNNY GLOCKS did not expect an answer so quick. Thanks buddy !!
Matt Vargas I'm also
JOHNNY on the SPOT my brother
GLOCK MASTER ARMORER
💥☮️🇺🇲👍👍👍👍👍🏆
This is probably a dumb question so please go easy on me, what’s the advantage of removing the trigger shoe? Does it help reduce the reset length?
The only reason you need to remove it is if you're going to put a different shoe on otherwise leave it alone
Thanks for the prompt reply! Great demonstration on the trigger function btw, 👍
👏
👍
Used this trick many times. I owe you a steak dinner Johnny
The first punch you use, "1/4 " punch? sure doesn't look a 1/4". what's up?
1/16
Easy, buy another oem trigger assembly. Then just punch the dang pin through. 😅
1/4” punch? More like 1/16”
Those yellow punches are junk! Mine are all bent to shxt. Just wanted to share.
every video I see that people have this punch they’re all bent so I believe you
That ain't no 1/4" punch.
I'd guess 1/16" to 1/8 at the biggest.
Yeah it was a slip it's 1/16
Silly question, but what is the point of doing this? I'm genuinely asking not talking smack.
Michael Zschoche a lot of aftermarket companies just sell shoes like Blocked Precision, deus ex machina,
agency, Glock Craft, Suarez, and Ranger proof to name a few. You have to install the shoe on something and in order to do that you have to get the OEM shoe off of the bar and this is a technique to do it in an efficient manner so you can possibly reuse it. So WHEN your aluminum trigger shoe shits the bed if you were smart enough to save your GLOCK OEM shoe you will be able to use it. As far as you clarifying that you are not talking smack shows you are a gentleman. And no question is silly Mike. Keep watching the videos I hope you like them.
JOHNNY GLOCKS the persona I have always wanted to do this because the trigger safety rides on my finger, and it gets tender after a few hundred rounds because of how thin it is. I used to just buy after market triggers with wider safeties, but that gets expensive for all of my firearms. I like the pyramid trigger from the glockstore.com, but the complete trigger is 250 dollars. Even just the trigger bar and show alone is 140. I don’t conceal since I’m in LA county in California, so it’s just for the range and home defense only. I would be ok with removing the safety or buying a show without a safety like you mentioned. Thank you for your video, and fast response.keep the, coming. I’m liking and subscribing now. I just found your channel.
Michael Zschoche one thing Michael. I don't believe I said anything about installing a trigger without a trigger safety but I would never suggest doing away with the trigger safety. Even if you have amazing trigger control things happen like drops and snags. Thanks for subscribing and I'll keep the videos coming
The only way of having a comfortable trigger on your glock if you shoot a lot you will hate a factory trigger replace with a solid metal trigger
