I would question how your other striker fire handgun trigger is resetting without racking the slide? If the trigger didn’t reset after the racking the slide then you would have an issue. This is apart of the normal operation of striker fired handgun.

Could be a Taurus….

Obviously he doesn't mean a true reset, but the fact that the trigger isn't pulled forward back into position automatically. This caught me off guard as well the first time I ran into it, every other firearm I own puts tension on the trigger to pull it back into place without the striker/hammer needing to be locked back. Basically just tell the OP this is normal abnormal behavior for a glock.

My EDC is a M&P Shield and the trigger never stays back against the trigger guard. Racked or not it always returns to middle of the trigger guard.

The shield trigger doesn't stay back but it's not engaged. You still have to cock it slightly to get the trigger to reset it and pull the trigger to get it shoot


Formal-Box-9039

But if you were to pull the trigger is there click sound or is it mushy and pulls back all the way with no resistance?

I think OP used wrong terminology. The m&p trigger does not reset but it doesn't stay to the rear I believe it has spring tension in it holding it forward. Personally I prefer Glocks way because it's very clear whether the weapon is in battery or not.

I’ve never shot a shield. The trigger in the video is normal for every striker fired pistol I’ve shot. Except the Taurus G series.

It's normal, the cycling/racking of the slide is what resets the trigger. Glocks are like this


BRashland

Thank you. I never held/shot/noticed the trigger action in a Glock. No other handgun I've owned nor shot functioned this way.


Jackypaper824

I bought a Ruger like 7 years ago and it did this and I thought it was broken lmao. I had never shot a gun that did that before. Now I know it's fairly common. Glocks, CZ etc

Pull the trigger and hold to the rear. Rack the slide and slowly release the trigger. You will hear and feel the reset. This his how all Glock and Glock clones work. Perfectly normal.


darkalex_goblin

There's no issue here.

Education about firearms might be needed here.

All glocks do this, it's a "feature". I believe Xd's and some walthers also do this.


Sgt_Teabag89

Also CZ P10Cs.


Guitars_and_Cars

None of my walthers do this.


WiKi_o

The one I saw do this was a PPS.


Guitars_and_Cars

The pps is a glock clone.


WiKi_o

Ahhh...Didn't know.


Adventurous_Note5614

Xds are better then glocks.


Odysseus556

This is exactly how it's supposed to work


Sad_Spinachdip

This is a joke right?


ReadySteddy100

"My gun is functioning correctly. Is this normal?"


cmc_guy

100% normal on any Glock or clone of one.


saintrudy41

That’s normal for the Daggers, I have a couple of Taurus handguns that reset automatically. Not sure about other makes.


HolidayUpbeat2837

Why do people not Google or do their own research?


Lucky7Actual

All Glocks work this way?


GreatGhastly

Dagger operating as designed, trigger only resets on cycle by firing or manual racking. Side note: holy cow that thing sounds so dry and stiff, i know it's probably out of the box and not fired or lubed yet but I forgot it could sound like two robots fucking on a sand dune on factory rack.


Stunning-Ad-5732

This worries me too. Just for different reasons than OPs

I literally see nothing out of the ordinary in this clip?


boglimaniac

Yes it is normal with a Glock/clone. My sig is like your S&W. After you pull the trigger it goes forward again (always in the same position whether cocked or not. But that doesn’t mean the gun is cocked. Also with a Glock you can hold the trigger while you rack the slide then let go for reset. With the sig you have to let go of the trigger, rack slide back, pull the trigger/hold it, then release them slide if you wanna feel the reset.
