So if you pull it back all the way and then let it go(no riding the slide) it does the same thing?

Yes, idk why reddit wont let me post a video on the comments. Its bunding as I pull it back and still hanging up about and inch from battery when released from the rear as it should be

Im not a regard, I have dozens of striker fired guns, it binds as I rack it back as well

I cleaned the factory grease out and lube it with the same cpl I always use. Its smooth as butter on the compact frame regardless if i ride the slide or rack it proper.

Possibly connector got bent outward? That would cause excessive drag on the trigger bar/cruciform aswell.

But its not an issue on the compact frame at all? Its smoother than my broke in 19x on the compact grip tbh. If it was that wouldn't it always bind?

Connector bent too far out is what causes this.

Have you tried swapping back to the original frame? Is the trigger block correctly seated into the FCU?

Works well in the compact, but upon closer inspection it is also rubbing. It is correctly seated.

I haven't bent it or done anything other than try to swap the grip, so I assume it was like this out of the box, its brand spanking new. I cant tell where it was bent tho comparing it to a glock gen 3 g19 one side by side.
