I know there is a 40 page thread going, but didn't want to derail it.  I have always had te problem of shooting my Glocks to the left.  All except the G30 for some reason.  Would the flat face trigge alleviate this issue?

No.



Trigger control has nothing to do with the shape of your trigger.

The short answer is, it might make a difference for you.



While a flat faced trigger won't ever replace practice and trigger control fundamentals, it can help mitigate some of the mechanical issues that may also be hindering you.

Larry Vickers posted this on his Facebook page a while back. I don't think anyone would argue that the LAV needs more trigger time, or that he lacks trigger control discipline...
10 yard slow fire target with my Boresight Solutions LLC G17 from a one day private class yesterday - pistol shoots well with a stock barrel but the real key item here is the slightly left grouping - the Wilson Combat Vickers rear sight is centered in the slide
I am like many if not most Glock shooters in that my groups are slightly left in most cases - I don't think the gun actually shoots left slightly, I think I shoot the gun slightly left
A theory has been presented that this is due to the grip angle , pivoting trigger and round face of the trigger
I think this is correct
What do you think ?

I had the same issue Larry did when I switched from m&ps to glocks. I remedied it by changing the way I apply pressure with my strong hand and where the gun is in the web of my hand. Take that as you will.

I'll continue practicing with my stock glocks. Need to experiment with different grip techniques

Bob vogels video on grip helped me a lot. Check it out on YouTube.
