Ok, before anyone says "too much trigger finger" let me explain.

For years my G30 has been dead on, and the only thing I have had replaced is the extractor (got tired of brass to the forehead) and having a G21 trigger installed. This was done by the Glock guy at a GSSF shoot locally. I shot a few runs at the plates and didn't notice a difference in POI. I bought a 1911 soon after, and gave the Glock a rest.

Sooo...I went shooting with a friend a few days ago, and noticed the G-Lock was shooting about four low and six left. Nice groups, but not POA. I switched lanes and shot both by friends G30 and G21 and POA=POI. He picked up my G30 and shot four low, six left.

I'm convinced it's the gun and not me.

Could there be something amiss with the trigger I'm not aware of? Thanks in advance.

Shoot off sandbags or a good rest and see what happens.

It's you!!!!!!
Your fighting the trigger/pistol (pulling hard and pushing the pistol forward/down left) and increasing your grip tension all at the same time.

To solve this, take a few dry fires at a target without having the front sight leave the point you trying to hit (read don't fight the trigger or your not trying to anticipate/fight the recoil), then fire a few rounds using the same dry fire method.

I really have a hard time believing that. I went to a different G30 and a G21 seconds after shooting mine an it was all good. My buddy picked up my G-Lock and shot low left too.

Stock barrel, Trijicon NS that have always been spot on.  A smooth trigger and new extractor is all that's been done. Factory parts installed by factory smith.




Twonami may be right...I think it's haunted.

it's the 1911 that's ruining you. I noticed the same thing with my G17 that I've had for over 10 years. If I only practice with the Glock all is well. When I shoot the 1911 extensively and then shoot the Glock the same thing happens. I much prefer the grip angle of the 1911. Grab your Glock and spend some quality time with it and you should be able to get back on track. If not, get some good adjustable sights and dial your sights for your new shooting style.

That's what I was thinking. I sure wouldn't call it ruining though.

I have tasted the Kool-aid. It was good.
