5.5 lbs. - except for the G34 and G35, they are 4.5 lbs.

Thank you very much. According to many websites they say it is 5lbs not 5.5lbs. Are they the same? I assume so.

Yes, the 5# connector gives about a 5.5# pull while the 3.5# gives about a 4.5# pull.

Glock makes three connectors, 4.5, 5.5 and 8 pounds. The 4.5 used to be known as a 3.5 and the 5.5 is sometimes referred to as a 5. The poundage is nominal and actual specimens will vary but are usually a bit heavier -- especially when new.
As indicated, most Glocks come with the 5.5 pound connector. The G34, G35 and (I think) the G17L come with the 4.5.

fyi though if you want a "4.5" most companies still call it the 3.5
