Well built but useless
I tried this out for my Glock 17 GEN four and when I was pulling the trigger, nothing happened. I didn’t hear any clicks or anything When I was dry firing it. I have the stainless steel Chanel liner In the gun and I installed the OEM firing pin back in and it worked just fine.
Absolute amazing!
My Glock 17 feels a bit lighter now and nice clicks and operation.
Update after 150 rounds
Amazing. Outstanding performance today at the range. Trigger pull weight can’t be more than 4lbs, yet is still safe as there remains sufficient take up, and a brief wall.
Well done folks! Worth every cent. Thank you.
Excellent quality
First time working with these folks, but Gen 4 striker assemblies are difficult to find. Stumbled on M*CARBON and took a chance. Very nice machining and fit, yielding a clearly thinner wall before trigger break. I’ll work with it awhile to ensure safety, as I like to carry this 19.4. Have a Johnny Glock version to compare, we’ll see. But so far it’s outstanding.
They obviously don't know who I am! Perhaps they should do their homework!
I have used Titanium strikers from another manufacturer for over 20 years! I hear a lot about MCarbo and thought I would give them a try. Their titanium striker assembly is not nearly what they advertise! To begin with with it was terribly gritty and added .75# to my trigger pull! nothing like they advertised! So with all the adds it cost me $135 for something I can't use! I guess i will use it for a spare titanium striker but it will take some work to make it as good as what I already have. I can't send it back because I used the internal sleeve and destroyed the plastic on e getting it out as they said would happen! I hate spending my very hard earned money on S--t that doesn't do what is advertised!!!
Great quality
Installed in a Zev OZ9 for an upgraded striker system. Product was easy to install and was exactly as expected. The best part was the fast shipping and the way the company operates. Every little detail from the package backing being targets and the hand written thank you on the order form means I look forward to working w this company in the future!

Glock 1-4 Gen Titanium Firing Pin
Install went very well with the sleeve removal tool. I haven't been able to fire the Glock 19 Gen 44 yet, but the trigger pull already feels better.
Please let me know as soon as a Gen 5 is available for the Glock 19X. Do you have any plans on producing them? If so how long will it be before they are available?

Please email us at help@mcarbo.com and we will be able to advise on that.
I'm looking for this to fit the Glock 45. Will that require you to build for the gen5 platform?
Yes, this item is not compatible with the Gen 5
Will this system work in the Ruger RXM?
The Ruger RXM is designed with a modular stainless steel Fire Control Insert (FCI) and incorporates features from both the Glock and SIG platforms. While it shares some compatibility with Glock Gen 3 components, such as triggers, magazine releases, and certain internal parts, the firing pin assembly is a critical component that requires precise fit and function. - We have not confirmed whether this will work in the Ruger RXM.
How long before you expect one for the Gen 5 or G19X?
At this time, our Titanium Performance Firing Pin Assembly is specifically designed for Glock Gen 1–4 models. However, we are actively evaluating compatibility and design considerations for Glock Gen 5 models and the G19X.

Will this work on an mr920p?
Esco August 13, 2024 6:41 PM
The Glock Gen 1–4 Titanium Performance Firing Pin Assembly with 3lb Competition Striker Spring is compatible with the Shadow Systems MR920P, as the MR920 series—including the ported MR920P—is built around Glock Gen 4 specifications. This includes shared dimensions in the slide, striker channel, and internal components. We recommend a full function test after installation.

Will this fit a Gen 5 G19X9mm.
No, the Glock Titanium Performance Firing Pin Assembly is for Gen 1-4 only currently. With enough customer demand, we can provide it for the Gen 5s.
Re: The Glock Gen 1-4 Titanium Performance Firing Pin Assembly w/ Competition 3lb Striker Spring... will this work with a Glock Model 36 Gen 1?
What is the overall length of the striker vs Glock
Zev makes one that is: 2.194
Most Glocks are: 2.186
