Why Upgrade Your Glock with the NDZ Adjustable Trigger Housing?

The factory trigger housing on your Glock serves its purpose, but for enthusiasts and competitive shooters, it’s just the starting point. Here’s why upgrading to the NDZ Adjustable Trigger Housing should be your next modification:

Expert Installation Tips for Your NDZ Adjustable Trigger Housing

For those looking to perfect their trigger setup with the NDZ Adjustable Trigger Housing, consider these expert recommendations:

Finding the Perfect Overtravel Setting

The key benefit of our trigger housing is eliminating unnecessary overtravel. Here’s how to find your perfect setting:

  • Begin with the adjustment screw backed out (minimal resistance)
  • Slowly tighten the screw in small increments (¼ turn at a time)
  • Test after each adjustment until you feel a definitive stop right after the trigger breaks
  • Avoid over-tightening which can prevent proper trigger function

Evaluating Reset Performance

A proper overtravel setting dramatically improves reset performance:

  • Listen for the audible “click” of the reset
  • Feel for the tactile feedback
  • Test how quickly you can release to reset position and fire again
  • Adjust until you achieve the shortest possible reset without compromising reliability

Optimizing for Your Shooting Style

  • Competition shooters typically prefer a very minimal overtravel setting
  • Defensive carry setups often benefit from a slightly longer overtravel for reliability
  • Consider your primary use case when making your final adjustments
