First Binary Firing System for Glock 19 Joins Franklin Armory G-Series Lineup
Franklin Armory is pushing the envelope with their latest innovation—the G-S193 Binary trigger and slide kit for the Glock 19 Gen 3. As someone who enjoys a bit of versatility in their firearms, I was particularly excited when I heard about this launch. Franklin Armory, known for their cutting-edge firearms and accessories, has designed the G-S193 to be the first-ever Binary trigger for this popular pistol model. If you’re a fan of the Glock 17 or Glock 22 Gen 3, you might already be familiar with their G-S173 and G-S223 kits, but the G-S193 brings that same game-changing tech to the compact and reliable Glock 19.
What sets the G-S193 apart is its integration of Franklin Armory’s patented Binary Firing System (BFS), allowing shooters to toggle between regular semiautomatic and Binary firing modes. And for those of you concerned about safety (as we all should be), the G-S193 has a feature that lets you cancel the release round before firing. So if you change your mind mid-trigger pull, no worries—just flip the switch to “semi” mode and you’re good to go.
Some of the standout features include:
- A Binary/Semiautomatic selector paddle
- Front and rear tritium night sights for those low-light situations
- Optics-ready design, accommodating multiple adapter plates (sold separately)
- Semi/Binary mode indicator on the back plate
- High-tactile front and rear slide serrations, plus anti-glare top serrations
In Binary mode, you get a round when you pull the trigger and another when you release it—talk about efficient! But again, safety is paramount, and being able to cancel the release round by simply switching modes is a smart addition.
If you’re heading to the 2024 National Association of Sporting Goods Wholesalers (NASGW) Expo in Kansas City, be sure to swing by Franklin Armory’s booth (#1306) to get a closer look at the G-S193. Trust me, it’s worth checking out. And if you’re curious about how the BFS system works, they’ve got a video called “Why Binary® is Better” that’s definitely worth a watch.
The G-S193 Binary trigger and slide kit will run you $899.99—a solid investment for the performance it delivers.
