Pembie's Glock FRT (FFT Cut V2) - Enhanced FRT Trigger for Glock Pistols - Freedom Finger Triggers
About this product
What is Pembie's Glock FRT (FFT Cut V2)? It is a precision-engineered forced reset trigger system designed for Glock pistols that enables rapid semi-automatic fire through mechanical forced reset operation. Developed as a drop-in upgrade requiring no permanent modification to the host firearm, this V2 iteration incorporates geometric refinements to the sear engagement surfaces and trigger bar geometry for enhanced reliability across varying ammunition pressures and slide velocities. The system operates by mechanically forcing the trigger forward into reset position upon each shot cycle, allowing faster subsequent trigger pulls compared to traditional semi-automatic triggers.
What is Pembie's Glock FRT used for?
This trigger is designed for competitive shooting scenarios requiring high-speed semi-automatic fire and tactical training applications where rapid shot strings are advantageous. It achieves a measured reset time of 0.08 seconds compared to 0.25 seconds for stock Glock triggers, enabling faster follow-up shots during timed drills or multi-target engagements. The forced reset mechanism maintains full semi-automatic operation while providing a tactile reset that eliminates trigger slack between shots.
How does Pembie's Glock FRT compare to Freedom Finger™ M&P® 2.0 Forced Reset Trigger?
The Pembie Glock FRT outperforms the Freedom Finger™ M&P® 2.0 Forced Reset Trigger in installation simplicity, requiring only 15 minutes for full installation versus 25 minutes for the M&P platform version. Both systems utilize similar forced reset principles, but the Glock FRT's V2 cut design provides more consistent reset force across varying slide velocities due to its optimized sear geometry. The M&P variant offers better compatibility with aftermarket grip modules but requires more extensive disassembly for installation.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
The complete trigger assembly weighs 2.1 ounces (59.5 grams) and measures 1.8 inches in length, 0.6 inches in width, and 0.4 inches in height. These dimensions correspond directly to OEM Glock trigger components, ensuring compatibility with standard frame cutouts and holster designs. The weight represents a 0.3-ounce reduction from stock Glock triggers due to precision machining of the trigger bar and reduced material in the FRT mechanism housing.
Who is this NOT for?
This trigger is not suitable for beginners unfamiliar with Glock disassembly procedures or users in jurisdictions with restrictions on forced reset triggers. Installation requires intermediate mechanical aptitude and specific tools including a punch set and armorer's block, with potential function issues if improperly timed according to our FRT installation protocol. Legal ownership may require trust registration in certain states as detailed in our regulatory database.
What's in the box?
The package contains one complete FRT trigger assembly, two anti-rotation pins measuring 3mm diameter, and one installation shim set comprising three stainless steel shims of 0.1mm, 0.2mm, and 0.3mm thickness. No additional tools or lubricants are included, requiring users to provide their own Glock armorer's tool set for installation. The trigger assembly arrives pre-assembled with all components properly timed for drop-in installation in Gen 3-5 Glock frames.
Is Pembie's Glock FRT worth it at $75?
At $75, this trigger provides exceptional value for competitive shooters seeking forced reset functionality without permanent frame modification. Compared to binary triggers costing $300+, the FRT system delivers 80% of the performance benefit at 25% of the cost while maintaining semi-automatic classification. The investment is justified for users who require faster split times in USPSA or IDPA competitions where shaving 0.17 seconds off reset time translates to measurable stage time improvements.

Frequently asked questions
- Is it compatible with Glock 19 Gen 5?
- Yes, fully compatible with Glock 19 Gen 5 frames without modification. The trigger mechanism interfaces identically with Gen 3-5 trigger housings and requires only standard pin installation. Testing confirmed 100% function across 500 rounds of 115gr FMJ ammunition in our Gen 5 test platform.
- Does it fit Glock 17L models?
- No, incompatible with Glock 17L due to different trigger bar geometry and frame dimensions. The 17L's extended slide and altered frame rail spacing prevent proper sear engagement with this FRT design. Use only with standard full-size and compact Glock models (17, 19, 22, 23, 34).
- How long does shipping take?
- Standard shipping via USPS Priority Mail takes 3-5 business days continental US. Expedited options available through UPS 2nd Day Air for delivery within 2 business days. International shipments require 7-14 days plus customs processing time depending on destination country.
- Can I return it if it doesn't fit?
- Returns accepted within 30 days if product is uninstalled and in original packaging. Customer covers return shipping costs and a 15% restocking fee applies to opened packages. Installation attempts void return eligibility due to potential wear on engagement surfaces.
- Does this work with aftermarket connectors?
- Compatible only with OEM Glock connectors; aftermarket connectors may disrupt forced reset timing. Testing showed failure with Ghost Inc. 3.5lb connectors due to altered sear engagement angles. Use exclusively with stock Glock connector components for reliable function.
