TriggerTech Certified Special Ace Trigger System for Glock
In a post last year, we identified some issues with the newly released Ace Trigger system, namely the lack of a functional trigger safety. NROI has worked with TriggerTech to correct any deficiencies, and they have released a new trigger system with an external safety lever that satisfies USPSA and SCSA rule requirements for primary safeties. The new model is called the “TriggerTech Certified Special Ace Trigger System for Glock”.

As 2024 comes to an end, I thought I would take the information I learned in 2024 and pass on to 2025. Some of this is Chronograph related, the rest is general information a prepared competitor might want to think about for next year.
