I had a Ghost 3.5 for awhile but didn't like that it made the break spongy in every Glock I tried it in. I gave it away and on a whim, ordered a pre-polished OEM 4.5 connector from one of the purveyors of perfection enhancement. I played with it in a couple of Glocks and found it to produce a much better break- just like the typical Glock, but crisp and 1 1/4 pounds lighter, per my RCBS trigger scale.

It sat unused in my parts box until recently, when I acquired a trade-in G30SF-3. It was one of those oddball Glocks that for whatever reason, leave the factory with a 7+ pound pull. I fully expected to find a NY-1 when I looked inside, but it was equipped with the basic 5.5# OEM part. I plugged in the OEM 4.5 and polished the drop safety plunger, which was rougher than I've seen one leave the factory. The result was a short take-up, a hard stop with a 5# crisp break at the end. Very shootable but heavy enough for daily carry.
