I want to nig up my Glock a little bit with some extended controls and maybe replace some of the plastic parts with metal ones.
Does anybody have experience with these aluminum magazine releases for Gen 4 Glocks? Do they fix the mushy feel of the mag release at all, or is it just a placebo? I'm also curious if the metal mag catch rubbing against the plastic of the magazine body tends to abrade the magazine body at all.

Another thing I'm wondering is, how do the different "3.5 lb" connectors reduce the trigger pull weight and which one is best? Do they just reduce friction against the trigger bar, or is the trigger disconnecting safety feature of the gun compromised somehow?

3.5lbs connectors drop the trigger pull weight slightly but they also add a little bit of creep.

I have have that mag release on my Glock 20 and I like it but it's a 3rd gen. I also have the 3 1/2 lb diamond connector on my 3rd gen Glock 29 and am not really sure how it works. I didn't even notice it that much. What I really noticed was doing the "10 cent trigger job" YouTube vids you see that you just polish everything with Flitz. Never noticed any creep either.

Pull the trigger slowly with both index fingers, you'll feel some creep

Why are you getting all uppity?
I didn't know how to check for creep before someone showed me the two finer method either, no reason to get defensive.
I have a g20 with a 3.5lbs too, I think I know my gun!

I like keeping my handguns internally stock. However, I won a SSVI Tyr trigger some time ago. I put it on my bed-side/occasional carry 34 and I absolutely LOVE it. Probably wouldn't spend $150 on it, but I'm happy with it. And I certainly feel comfortable carrying it, unlike many non OEM triggers, but that's my two cents.

I just have a steel guide rod in mine. Otherwise bone stock.

The different pull weights are generated by different angles of the connector shelf that interacts with the radius on the trigger bar.
You can try an aluminum mag release for whatever that costs, or you can carefully smooth and radius the surfaces of the stock mag release where it's dragging on the frame.
Work it with 800 grit wet/dry and a smooth flat surface.
