Bought a used Glock 23 a few months back. The first thing I noticed when I shot it was that I did not care for the NY1 trigger (8 lb pull supposedly; it felt like the DA pull on an RG .38 I shot one time years ago, which was probably 14 lbs). Sent off to Glockmeister for a stock trigger spring (supposedly 5 lb pull) and replaced it myself; if you've seen Glockmeister's website you know he's got great illustrated instructions, and I was pleased that the Glock seemed so simple to work on. I did not replace the connector, and the spring position on my assembly seemed to match the diagram perfectly.
The pistol functioned with 120 rounds perfectly the next week, I was able to shoot much better with it, and my wife loved it when I took her to shoot it the week after that. The whole feel of the trigger was different, it was much smoother besides being lighter. This was early last summer, and I cleaned and put the pistol away, haven't fired it since.
I took it to the range last week, and fired it with the same good results as before, but noticed something strange when I dry fired it; the trigger doesn't come forward at all after you press it, sort of like a regular single action auto. You can cycle the slide or even press the trigger so it goes forward and that's it. I thought Glocks were more like a DA auto, and that the little trigger piece actually cocked the trigger for the next shot. I took the gun apart, everything seemed kosher and there didn't seem to be anything broken or any abnormal wear.
Am I nuts, is it supposed to be like this; or did I break my gun?
