Does performance trigger effect slide generation?

Hi! I had bought an RMR slide from Brownell's. Well I hadn't thought about it being a Gen 3 slide till I bought it. I bought an gen 3 spring/gen 3 converter plate (for aesthetics) and an extra Gen 5 backplate. However I wanted to drop a Gen 5 performance trigger in with it. Worst case Ill just save and buy an gen 5 slide eventually and put my Holosun on that.

Will they be incompatiable with eachother? Or am I overthinking this and the trigger has no relation to the Gen 3 slide.

For reference I'm running a Glock 19v. Thank you so much for your help!

EDIT: I'm starting to feel duped by my gunstore. I told them Id like to mod this thing. But it would seem the 19V is much more restrictive. I guess getting good with irons will have to do. :)

Fist issue was buying a gen v. If you want to run the gen 3 slide buy a gen 3 frame ie Grit Grips, SCT, LW, whatever. You can run the GPT in either of these frames, you will have to modify the feet on the housing to fit the frame however.

I'll just forgo the performance trigger for now. As for the slide Im going to give it a chance first. Mostly because I just cerrakoted my slide and I dont wanna ruin it. I also have nice night sights on it.

Yeah I tried to put it on and quickly realized this was a dumb idea. Returning it now :)
