The G5's have definitely better triggers than previous versions............noticeably better.

I agree on both points. The Gen 5 trigger isn't any lighter than the Gen 4 trigger, but it is way smoother in all its stages than the Gen 4. I still mostly carry a G19 Gen 4, but have started carrying my G17 Gen 5 non-MOS when I travel or out in the field. The Gen 5 seems to be an all around improvement over all previous generations. Mine was exceptional accurate with Gold Dot 147 grains.
