Bought brand new a couple months ago.  First range use, as expceted- completely reliable.  Put a ghost trigger upgrade in and now the trigger safety seems to sticking on the frame leading to a snag in the trigger pull.  Any ideas?

Is it a full trigger replacement with the trigger and bar being replaced or just the connector?

It was 3.5lb disconnecter, trigger spring, firing pin spring and extractor spring

sounds like there isn't enough force pushing the trigger back forward to fully reset clear of the safety. i think it happened to me when i put in the zev competition springs. it was either the striker spring or the trigger spring. make sure the trigger spring is installed in the correct direction and replace them one at a time to see which one it is. i think mine was the striker spring.

Sounds like you solved a nonexistent problem with your "upgrade" put the stock parts back in and forget the aftermarket nonsense

I have a ghost rocket with spring kit in my glock 27 and have the same issue. I was thinking of swaping springs to figure out the issue and maybe have the good reset again with the light pull

Put stock striker spring in.  Never had good luck with them running 100%.

I had the same exact problem, I put the stock, Glock spring back in and the problem was solved...

Go back to the factory parts. Maybe it is the Glock Armorer in me, but other than night sights, a grip plug and magazine base plates I keep everything factory. You can get a factory (-) connector from eBay or even Amazon. I also got G17 smooth face triggers and extended slide stops in my Gen4 19 and Gen4 26. Oh yeah, I did get an aftermarket barrel for my 19, but I needed something threaded. Otherwise, I would have stuck with the factory barrel.

Sorry, but Ghost is shit.

Use the stock springs with the Ghost connector.  You will get better results.  Good luck.

I just put the factory striker spring back in and have positive reset with no hang up again. Might just put it all back to factory parts

I put the Zev connector and spring kit in my G4 G17 but left the firing pin spring stock.  Been 100% reliable.

My brand new gen3 19 came with the most incredibly crisp trigger.  I'm hesitant to swap to a smooth face trigger just because of how good it breaks

Shouldnt it break the same as long as your not changing the springs and connector? I have no experience with it, just curious

Then don't mess with it.  I used to swap all mine out for smooth triggers until I really thought about it and I realized that they're plastic serrations and I can't even feel 'em.

I used to shoot 1911s with serrated face triggers and loved 'em.  I shot a few with smooth triggers and loved them too.

Restore to factory condition.

Post range report.  After the (mostly) constructive replies, I swapped out the striker spring with the factory spring and it's good to go now.  Positive reset and no snag with lighter trigger pull.  Thanks for the help!

Good to hear..... The striker spring can make a 100% reliable Glock into a hope this is not a light strike when I need it the most.  I tinkered with it for awhile in my G34 but inevitably after a few light strikes and the trigger generally not feeling good I put it back to stock and it a sweet trigger.

IMO the - connector, heavier trigger reset spring and the lighter safety plunger spring makes a damn sweet trigger.

Clean out the fireing pin channel,  spring and fireing pin. Any oil or fouling well slow the pin down like shock absorber causing light strikes.
