About this product
What is the Glock-Mod POLYMER GLOCK FRT V2 TRIGGER SHOE KIT – Curved Black? It's a drop-in replacement polymer trigger shoe engineered specifically for FRT-equipped Glock pistols like the 17, 19, 19X, 34, and 45. This V2 model features a curved backplate profile to reduce finger pinch during high-rate fire and installs in under two minutes with basic tools. It's manufactured from a reinforced polymer blend for durability at a low 1.08-ounce total system weight.
What is the Glock-Mod POLYMER FRT V2 Trigger Shoe Kit used for?
This kit replaces your factory or aftermarket trigger shoe on a Glock fitted with a Force Reset Trigger (FRT) system to improve ergonomics and control. The curved design cradles the trigger finger, maintaining consistent pad placement during rapid fire, which is critical for controlling the binary firing sequence of an FRT. It directly addresses the discomfort and finger slip that can occur with flat or poorly shaped shoes under fast reciprocation, making sustained strings more manageable.
How does the Glock-Mod POLYMER FRT V2 compare to the Glock-Mod BLEM Standard Semi-Auto Aluminum Flat Trigger?
The Polymer V2 is better for shooters prioritizing lightweight, cost-effective ergonomics, while the BLEM Aluminum Flat Trigger offers a more premium metallic feel and adjustable pre-travel. At 1.08 ounces, the Polymer V2 is 0.42 ounces lighter than the aluminum flat model, reducing reciprocating mass slightly. The trade-off is material feel; the polymer won't have the same cold, precise break-in feel as machined 6061 aluminum, but for a $20 part focused purely on finger interface, it delivers.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
The complete trigger shoe assembly weighs 1.08 ounces (30.6 grams), with the shoe itself measuring 0.86 inches wide at the paddle. The curvature has a radius of 0.31 inches, providing a shallow cradle that suits medium to large hands without being overly aggressive. The shoe mounts to a standard Glock trigger bar with a roll pin that is 0.078 inches in diameter, matching OEM specifications for a straightforward press-fit installation.
Who is this NOT for?
This trigger shoe is not for shooters running standard semi-auto Glock configurations without an FRT unit installed, or for those seeking a flat-faced trigger profile. The curved design is optimized for the unique reset dynamics of binary/FRT systems; on a standard connector, the reset feel may be less definitive. It's also not a complete trigger job—for a full performance upgrade including bar and connector, consider the Glock 43/43X/48 FRT V3 Complete Kit.
What's in the box?
You receive one polymer curved trigger shoe (black), one steel roll pin for attachment, and a one-page diagrammatic installation guide. The kit does not include a trigger bar, connector, or FRT unit itself—it is specifically the shoe and its mounting hardware. All components are packaged in a sealed, anti-static bag to prevent shipping scuffs or static discharge damage to other electronic components in your order.
Is the Glock-Mod POLYMER FRT V2 Trigger Shoe worth it at $20.34?
At $20.34, it's a justified upgrade if your current FRT setup causes finger fatigue or inconsistent placement. For the price of two boxes of 9mm practice ammo, you gain a tangible ergonomic improvement that directly impacts controllability during high-rate fire. Compared to milling a custom curve into an existing shoe or buying a full $80+ aluminum kit, this is a low-cost, high-return solution focused on a single performance variable: finger interface under rapid reset.

Pros & cons
What works
- Weighs 1.08 oz (30.6g) — reduces reciprocating mass versus metal shoes.
- Installs in under 2 minutes with a punch and hammer — true drop-in.
- Curved radius of 0.31" improves finger placement consistency during rapid FRT fire.
- Costs $20.34 — less than half the price of comparable machined aluminum shoes.
Trade-offs
- Polymer material lacks the premium machined feel of 6061 aluminum alternatives.
- No included stippling or texture — smooth finish may require grip tape for sweaty hands.
- Curve profile is fixed — not adjustable like some competition flat shoes with set screws.

Frequently asked questions
- Is it compatible with Glock 19 Gen 5?
- Yes, it is fully compatible with Glock 19 Gen 5 models that have been fitted with an FRT (Force Reset Trigger) unit. It uses the standard Glock trigger bar interface, so it will drop onto any Gen 3-5 double-stack bar. Ensure your FRT system itself is rated for your specific Gen 5 model before installation.
- Does it fit a Polymer80 PF940SC frame?
- It will fit any frame that accepts a standard Glock trigger assembly, including the Polymer80 PF940SC (G26 size). The shoe's width of 0.86 inches clears the Polymer80 trigger guard geometry. You must be using a Glock-compatible trigger bar and have installed an FRT unit designed for that frame.
- How long does shipping take?
- Orders ship within 1 business day from the GLOCK FRT facility in Dallas, TX. Continental US delivery typically takes 3-5 business days via USPS First Class or UPS Ground. International orders to Canada and the EU add 7-14 business days for customs processing.
- Can I return it if it doesn't fit my setup?
- You can return any uninstalled, undamaged product within 30 days for a refund, less a 15% restocking fee. Once the roll pin is pressed in or the shoe shows installation marks, it is considered used and non-returnable. Their overall return rate is 3.2%, primarily for incorrect model orders.
- Does this work with a Johnny Glock Performance Trigger system?
- No, this shoe is not designed for the Johnny Glock Performance Trigger system, which uses a proprietary trigger bar and shoe interface. It is engineered explicitly for FRT/ binary trigger systems that utilize a standard Glock trigger bar. Attempting to fit it to a Johnny Glock bar will likely result in improper engagement or function.
