Gen 4 Glock 34 review :)

[Packy14]

I tried one hoping it would feel better in my hands than the gen3 but even with the small backstrap on it still feels like a 2x4 to me. Ill be sticking with xdm and fnp guns.

the backstrap is more to change your LOP than make it feel better. A hogue handall does help alot!

Pretty sure the Gen 3 G34 came in 3.5 and 5.5 (LEO) versions. Either way, the trigger could be lighter for target work... but I will probably never love the glock trigger due to the safety on the trigger.

I believe your closer because my LEO trigger was at least 5.5 lbs. Tried to measure it with a trigger pull scale and it was over 8lbs before it clicked. So I just put a Fulcrum in it with a 3.5lb firing pin spring.

I love the "100 flawless rounds".

he probably owned a 1911 before this

actually I own Sigs...lots of Sigs... and this is currently my only glock. Thanks for weighing in.

I need to try out a glock with the small back strap. if it feels good, I'll buy a glock again. If they still feel crappy then I'll never buy a glock again.

I wish I had friends that owned a g17/19/26/34 gen 4

Are you looking to shoot a Gen4 or a Gen4 9mm?

[Packy14]

Another 100 rounds though, getting much better on my accuracy with it too... groups down to about 1.5 inches at 15 yards, one group of 10 was a ragged hole.

Glad to see you're able to tighten it up. I was going to make a snide reply about the 226 being more "accurate", but you don't seem like the type who really believes that.

My G34 is gen3, and after trying a million different configurations I settled on a skeletonized striker w/light spring, LWD 3.5 connector and steel guide rod w/variable spring weights. Oh, and the most important mod IMO, the $8 Hogue Handall. I got it breaking at 3.5 lbs consistently, and shoot great, small groups. I'd love to get my hands on a gen4, but I've dedicated 2012 to training and reloading.... NO NEW GUNS.

[Packy14]

I might play with the connector and springs once I get more used to it, right now its user error and the fact a glock doesn't fit my hands as well as a 226 with hogue grips... I will try my handall next time out... I don't believe either gun is inherently more accurate, but I am definitely more accurate with my p226... I can shoot that gun with my eyes closed. On a side note, I shot my friends 1911 Kimber TLE on the same outing... one ragged hole... makes me want a 1911, but .45 is too rich for my poor blood right now. I consolidated to 9mm only (and .22 for fun)... dropped .40 cal altogether and never going back. If I add, it'll be .45 for a 1911.

1911 in 9mm is a dream to shoot...

maybe


Gotta dros my Gen 4 G19 first... should be this week!

[terdog]

Im thinking of getting the 35 & the 34 barrel to reduce my shooting costs.

Anyone done this? Comments? Advise?

[cwin]

Congrats! A Gen4 17 is on my buy list.

Gen 4 Glock 34 review :/

Picked mine up a couple weeks ago as well.

This being my first Glock, I can't compare to previous versions. That being said, the ergo's of this gun are terrible. I think the biggest prob comes from the misplaced back-strap hump, the handall does help but not that much. My first handgun was a CZ-75, that gun feels like it was made for MY hand.

I know all you Glock lovers will have your panties in a bunch, I'm just stating my observations and experience. Different strokes different folks.
