glock 19 trigger job

hey guys so i decided to polish all my trigger parts meaning my connector my trigger par my extractor plunger the striker safety and the striker its self and at home it felt fine dry firing it felt about 4.5 to 5lbs and i went to the range with my friends and for some really weird reason my trigger was extremely heavy i shot about 7 times and it was fine then i put a new mag in and then it was literally a 13lb trigger pull at least i mean it was really bad almost to the point where you couldnt pull the trigger safely i didnt have my tool so i couldnt fix it on the spot even dry firing it was a major difference i was really worried and it wonderment as to why this was happening so i went home and oiled in between the trigger connector and the trigger housing and now it feels great dry firing it seems to be back to normal but i havent put live rounds through it yet so idk if it is fixed yet i guess what im wondering is has this happened to anybody else? i know exactly how the gun works and functions so i dont think ill need to bring it to a gunsmith but if its not fixed after this i dont really know what to do any advice would be greatly appreciated


Do what all the XD guys do. Sell the Glock you messed up. Buy an XD. Then tell everybody how crappy Glocks are.
 
The last "bad" factory trigger I saw, was in a Springfield 1911, and that was back around the late 90's. There was something wrong with it, and that was obvious.

Other than that, I cant remember a factory trigger on anything Ive shot, that was what Id call "bad", or even iffy. Then again, Im not trigger phobic.
 
Of the plastic service pistols, IMHO the XD has the best out of the box trigger going......
If you get a chance, try the trigger on a SIG P320 or an H&K VP9. I haven't tried them all and some of the Walther triggers are also very good from what I hear, but those two are the best I have had the opportunity to check out.
 
I've owned two XDms and an XD. I thought they were pretty rugged and I liked the ergos, but none of them had triggers that to me were notably better than anything else out there.
 
The trigger on my XD-S feels a lot like the Gen4 Glock triggers, maybe a little heavier, but similar take up and creep.

Because the XDS is similar to the Glock, internally, and quite different from the original XD and XDM guns.
