Just installed the Galloway Trigger Kit in my LC9.
Seems to me that it takes out about 1/3 of the travel, and the release point is very crisp, overall a very nice feel.
Had to watch videos on YouTube a few time to get it right. But it is very doable.

It was about 4 weeks for me but I think Eric is getting caught up. So might not be as long.


Oh and I must say. WOW what a difference a Galloway trigger kit makes. Shoot 100 rounds today no issues and this kit is awesome. Like night and day If you have been on the fence on this kit well jump on it. Best 60.00 I spent.

What kit are you guys installing? I see he has several. I put a Ghost Ultimate in my SR40 and didn't really notice any improvement.

As stated in my last post. I used the Galloway trigger kit and it made a world of difference It cut out all the play
And shoots like a dream now. Best 60 bucks I spent.
I'm now waiting for the new adjustable trigger.

O.K. I see. He only makes one for the LC9. The SR series has many to chose from. Thanks.

So I see you like the overall results of the Galloway kit huh? Did it make a big difference in the trigger pull? I am trying to convince my wife to put the kit on here LC9. I think she's afraid it will mess things up. I really don't like the trigger much the way it is!😁

I installed the kit yesterday and it makes an incredible difference. That very long take up is cut way down and the trigger breaks nice and clean in about 1/2 the distance it used to.

One thing I noticed that I have e-mailed Eric about is a "third click" on reset. The new click is very faint and occurs immediately when pressure is released to start resetting the trigger. The other two regular clicks in reset appear as normal. The trigger bar didn't require any fitting and seems to work just fine, other than the faint, extra click.

For those that have installed the kit, do you notice any sound or slight feeling when releasing pressure from the trigger, in addition to the normal reset clicks?

I'll post back when I hear from Eric.

For those of you that have done the change, is it worth it to get the O/T stop trigger too. Or is the regular kit good enough?

Papa. Not sure what the other kit is. But this trigger kit is going to be all I need I think. Unless I get the new ss adjustable trigger. It looks awesome adds a nice chrome look.

As for the 3rd.click. I'll go upstairs now and see if I have it too.

BRB.

Wood. Ok I do hear it. It's right as you are starting to reset the trigger. It's like a hair from the backward position.

I was just talking with Eric on FB. I guess I could ask him over there.

Yes, that describes what I am hearing and feeling on mine. I don't think it is an issue but would like to hear what Eric says. Thanks for the confirmation of the third click ptroxx. Anyone else notice it too?

The LC9 trigger with the complete kit is awesome and I won't be changing the trigger out as I like it as is.

Eric e-mailed me the following and confirmed that the third click exists. I don't see it being a problem while shooting as it really isn't very noticeable when resetting the trigger quickly. when resetting slowly it is pretty obvious.

From Eric: "Yep nothing to worry about. The extra click is just the blocker dropping. Giving we are radically altering the timing of the fire control some things that are masked in the factory setup are visible or rather audible with our kit. So no worries sounds like it is operating correctly.
Thanks,
Eric"
