If Clear, Hammer Down, Holster.

July 24, 2025 by Jay Worden

I am just back from the Factory Gun Nationals and what I thought was a single occurrence recently at another Sectional match raised its ugly head several times at Chronograph. I guess it is time to review one of those misunderstandings that sometimes arise from bad information.

TriggerTech Ace Glock Trigger

July 10, 2025 by Troy McManus

A new aftermarket replacement trigger on the market for Glock handguns has generated some questions recently. Let’s answer those so there’s no confusion.

I was first introduced to the TriggerTech Ace trigger at the IPSC Canada Nationals last year. At the time, I remarked to the representative demonstrating the trigger that it would not be legal in USPSA, as it does not replicate the trigger safety on the Glock handgun. There are many other aftermarket replacement triggers that do include the trigger safety lever, and all of those are legal replacements per the USPSA and SCSA rules. However, the trigger safety on Glock handguns is considered the primary safety: it’s external and can be tested for function. The TriggerTech Ace does not replicate that feature, instead, it shrouds the trigger with another trigger, in essence, and defeats the primary safety function of the lever safety. Therefore, it’s not legal as a replacement trigger in any USPSA or SCSA division.

Chronograph is the place where multiple things are checked. Bullet velocity is the primary duty of chrono, but other things such as magazine length and handgun weight are also checked. The chrono officer also has the opportunity to check primary safeties to ensure they are functioning properly. Let’s discuss why that is important in this Question of the Month.
