It's not the weight, it's the length of pull. The Glock was marketed to police agencies from the beginning with the selling point that the long miserable trigger pull would mean less accidental shootings of suspects held at gunpoint. Prior to that, they were using DA/SA pistols and the transition between the pulls often led to accidental shootings if the pistol had already been fired, or if the cop had thumbed the hammer back.
Glocks are specifically designed to have a bad trigger to reduce civil liability. Training can overcome that bad trigger, but it's still a bad trigger.

Please stop listening to whom ever is feeding you that line of garbage. The rearward travel of my stock Glock 21 trigger is a whopping 5/16th's inch ( or this long -----). It resets after about 1/8th inch forward travel and will fire again with 1/8inch rear travel (or this long --). If you have ever even dryfired a Glock you would realize the incredible nonsense you just posted. Heck even the gun with the greatest trigger in the world, the 1911, moves 1/8th inch to the rear on a stock colt commander. BTW I'm measuring them as we speak.
So police departments went to the Glock with its 5/16 inch initial trigger pull to avoid problems cause by da/sa guns like sig 229's and h&k usp's both of whom have 7/16th inch single action rear travel. Come on now admit you have little experience with Glocks.
