I kept having issues with my giant pointer finger pressing on the mag release slightly whenever I shot, which would sometimes release the mag while I’m operating the firearm. So I just ordered an enhanced mag release, and the flat trigger because based on your video, it looks like those 2 things will solve my issue!! Thanks!!
My friends gunsmith installed the flat trigger with the SRT on my wife's p30s, and its amazing. I love shooting the gun now, trying to keep it for myself lol.
That's my 11-year old daughter in the background. She just now told me that I have to reply to all these comments. I had no idea you guys were leaving comments. Anyway, sorry for the late reply. She's teaching me how the youTube works. I figured no-one was watching this video.
In your opinion would you be happy with the Flat Trigger only without the reset? Or do you think both the Short Reset and Flat Trigger need to be together? Thanks.
Quality video I decided tonight to go ahead and get my P30sk ready to carry. I have been a bit hesitant for a few reasons, trigger being one of them. But I ordered the holster tonight and will do the flat trigger and reset next week. Thanks for the video.
@MechanicalDave79 With just the Short Reset System, there is definitely a reduction in trigger pull weight, around a 3 lb reduction for double action. But once the Flat Trigger is installed, it sits so far forward and a such a steep angle, that at the very start of the trigger pull feels heavy because of the angle. But once the trigger clears a few degrees and your finger settles onto that flat surface, the trigger just rides straight back. Best analogy I can put it is: the stock trigger is like driving a very large SUV with no power steering: heavy in a not fun way. With the short reset and flat trigger: like a rwd German sports sedan: heavy but fast, responsive and full of feedback.
Did you have problems with the flat trigger? I installed my flat trigger but it wouldn't fire in single action...reinstalled the original and it works awesome with the short reset kit
Any feedback on the trigger? How much did it change your shooting experience. Also is this the trigger reset carry or the competition trigger GG offers?
Hi, sorry for the late reply. I had no idea you guys were leaving questions here. I thought the questions would show up in my e-mail or something, and I thought no-one was watching the video. Regarding the trigger, I love it and so do my buddies. Each time someone tries it, the RSO ends up coming out and telling my friend to slow it down. This install was the GG Short Reset System with the GG Straight Trigger.
Sold. Definitely getting the flat trigger now. Already have the Gray Guns short reset trigger upgrade. I also have a Fire Dragon 357 sig barrel and it’s still better than my Glock 31.
Sounds good! The Flat Trigger really gives you feedback to ensure you're pressing straight back and knowing when you've reset. I'm finally uploading the install video this weekend!
So the reason why you can't find a video on installing the flat trigger is, it's a huge pain in the rear! I watched some install videos on the kit installation, and used the owners manual for the flat trigger. Took me 2 hours, and a extra set of hands for the trigger, and about 20 minutes to do the kit. It can be done with the right tools, but if you're someone that's not a tinkerer, I'd just pay a gunsmith to handle it.
@@everydayaegis6651 I love it! Smooth all the way through. Combined with the back straps, and side panels. This is the most comfortable piece to shoot I own.
I’m trying to replace my p30l’s trigger with a flat trigger and I can’t get the spring to sit right, any advice because I can’t find anything on the installation.
Hi, sorry for the late reply (just got taught how to check for comments/questions on my video, my kid just showed me how). Did you happen to purchase the trigger install pliers, and are you still needing help with this?
Hi Darq Shark, for the SRT for LEM, there are 2 different kits. The one for the standard LEM, and the one for CDA 4.1 LEM. You'll find them under the NO SAFETY version. Cheer!
Hi, sorry for late reply. My 11-year old daughter just taught me how to find out if I have comments/questions on a posted video. I very much like the new trigger: with the trigger being metal, there's no flex, but it obviously feels "harder". It lets you know it's there. I would equate the original trigger to a SUV (comfy, curved, compliant) but still works. The new trigger would be a RWD sports car (you feel the force of feedback through the steering wheel and as such, you need to put forth your own effort back into it.). The initial start of the DA pull requires you to be more deliberate, because the new trigger has no flex and the contact point is further away. But once the pad of your finger settles on that nice flat face and you start to send it home, I swear it's like the trigger just goes on auto-pilot all the way to the break. When I dry fire, I am routinely surprised when my DA breaks. With the new trigger being flat, it feels good when you press straight back. If you press at an angle, your finger will be pressing against an edge (instead of a the flat face), and you'll feel some discomfort and can then correct yourself. Everything with the install pushes my DA to be deliberate and mindful of press/pulling straight back. Once we get into SA, it's rapid distribution of party favors!
@Walter Ritchey I think we can agree that the DA pull is a negative for this setup, especially compared to the ease of a striker (VP9) or a pre-cocked hammer (LEM). But if you're someone who just likes DA/SA (which it sounds like you might be), if you like something you do it more, and the more you train it, the better you become, until the negative no longer exists. So, I think a good option for defense, is the one that brings you enough enjoyment and engagement to get you to train. For me the challenge of mastering the DA and the ergos of the P30 series: keep me motivated to train and hit the range!
I love the singing in the background 😂😂😂

Had my headphones on and I thought it was my kid singing. But she’s supposed to be in bed. Took me a minute to realize what was going on.
In your opinion would you be happy with the Flat Trigger only without the reset? Or do you think both the Short Reset and Flat Trigger need to be together? Thanks.
They don’t need to be together, but the magic is in the combination. I would pick the short rest over the flat trigger if I had to pick one.
How's that Flat Trigger Install video coming?
Well, finally years later, I put the video up. It'll be too late for some, but hopefully it will help the future P30 owners.

I’m not seeing it?

Just bought a P30 on GB, thanks for the video 👍
The flat faced trigger system at the end of the video on the P30L , is the one that i like .

Yes, if you can make a video of installing the Flat trigger.
Hi Lorenzo, thanks for dropping by. Yes, I plan on releasing the videos before the end of the month.
That's great 👍 Thank you!
I was just thinking the same! I plan on ordering the flat trigger and short reset kit soon for my p30ls

Great video. Thanks for uploading
Glad you enjoyed it. The install video is coming up in the next few days.
I would love a flat trigger installation video. I have my p30 disassembled and I'm stymied on how the trigger bar comes off of the trigger.
Just rotate the trigger bar up to 90 degrees and it will come right off.

Is the trigger pull lighter? Cause the stock trigger is HEAVY

Hi IanMan, did you ever get your flat trigger single action resolved?
@@everydayaegis6651 yes I got it resolved and working like a champ….unfortunately I never found time to test it out at the range
Did that threaded barrel come stock with your P30L ?? Looks badass af
Thanks! The threaded barrel isn't an option from the factory, but the genuine HK threaded barrels can be found HK's webshop.
Any feedback on the trigger? How much did it change your shooting experience. Also is this the trigger reset carry or the competition trigger GG offers?

Does this SRT kit lighten the pull weight?
Hi, yup it reduces the double action pull, by about 2.5 to 3 pounds.
So gotta get short recoil and flat trigger you're saying
