Description

Ever wondered how competitive shooters achieve that incredibly fast, controlled cadence? It often comes down to mastering the reset. The Pembie’s Glock FRT (FFT V2) | Forced Reset Trigger Upgrade is engineered to give you a distinct mechanical advantage by promoting a rapid, positive reset for faster semi-auto shooting.

Californiagunshop is a San Antonio, TX-based retailer specializing in performance firearm components and tactical gear. The Pembie’s Glock FRT (FFT V2) is a drop-in trigger component designed to accelerate your Glock’s rate of fire by mechanically forcing a rapid reset. This upgrade focuses on enhancing the shooter’s speed through improved mechanics, not by altering the firearm’s legal function. Available now for $45.00, down from $50.00.

Why This Trigger Upgrade Makes a Difference

After building and tuning hundreds of Glocks for everything from duty use to competition, I’ve seen firsthand how a sluggish or mushy reset can slow you down. The standard Glock trigger has a decent reset, but it relies heavily on the shooter to release it fully and find that wall again. This Pembie’s FFT V2 works on a simple but effective principle: it incorporates a secondary engagement surface that mechanically pushes the trigger forward after the shot breaks. This creates a more positive, tactile, and faster reset point. You’re not waiting for springs to do all the work; you get a physical nudge forward, allowing you to prep for the next shot more quickly and consistently. It’s about reducing the time and mental effort between shots, which is a huge factor in both competitive stages and defensive training drills.

The Pros and Cons, Straight From the Bench

What I like about it:

• ✅ Mechanically Simpler: It’s a single component swap, not a complex assembly. This reduces potential failure points compared to some full-kit systems.
• ✅ Noticeably Faster Reset: The forced reset action is tangible. You can feel it push your finger forward, which shortens the time to the next shot.
• ✅ Maintains Stock Feel & Safety: It doesn’t drastically alter pull weight or the fundamental safety mechanisms of your Glock. The break and wall remain familiar.
• ✅ CNC Precision: The machining quality is solid. I’ve installed several, and they’ve dropped right into frames without the need for fitting that cheaper parts often require.
• ✅ Exceptional Value: For under fifty dollars, the performance gain per dollar is significant, especially compared to full trigger kits costing five times as much.

What you should consider:

• ❌ Not a Full Trigger Job: This upgrades the reset mechanism. It is not designed to lighten pull weight or improve break feel. If you want a lighter, crisper pull, you’ll need a complete trigger kit. See our Triggers category for complete drop-in assemblies.
• ❌ Requires Proper Technique: To benefit fully, you must use proper trigger control—letting the trigger reset fully to the new wall. It rewards good fundamentals but won’t fix a poor trigger press.
• ❌ Legal Clarity is Your Responsibility: This component is for use in semi-automatic firearms only. It is the shooter’s responsibility to understand and comply with all federal, state, and local laws regarding firearm modifications.

Who Should (and Shouldn’t) Buy the Pembie’s FFT V2

Buy it if:

• You’re a Glock owner focused on improving your split times in USPSA, IDPA, or other action shooting sports.
• You train for defensive scenarios and want to develop faster, more accurate follow-up shots.
• You appreciate mechanical upgrades that enhance performance without over-complicating a proven platform.
• You want a noticeable improvement in reset speed without the investment of a full custom trigger system.

Skip it if:

• Your primary goal is to reduce trigger pull weight or eliminate creep. Look at our complete trigger systems instead.
• You are a brand-new shooter still mastering basic safety and marksmanship fundamentals. Focus on the basics first.
• You are not comfortable with basic disassembly of your Glock to install the component.
• You live in a jurisdiction where this type of component is not permitted.

Common Questions & Concerns

Will this make my Glock full-auto? No. This is a critical distinction. A forced reset trigger (FRT) mechanism, when functioning as intended in a semi-automatic firearm, does not alter the fundamental fire-control sequence of one shot per trigger pull. The shooter must still release and repress the trigger for each shot. It simply makes the reset portion of that cycle faster and more positive.

Is installation difficult? For anyone familiar with basic Glock field-stripping and trigger component removal, it’s straightforward. You’re swapping the factory trigger bar for this one. If you’ve never detail-stripped your frame, I recommend watching a detailed tutorial or having a qualified gunsmith perform the installation.

Will it work with my aftermarket connector or springs? In most cases, yes. It should be compatible with standard aftermarket connectors (like a minus connector) and springs. However, as with any combination of parts, function testing is essential. Start with your standard setup to gauge its performance, then make other changes one at a time.
