I bet most people just pick one up and shoot some targets from low ready. I like to get some dry fire in and get familiar with the gun first and then run some drills like accelerator, distance change up, and doubles.

[emoji106] I’ve shot some raced up minor guns and the timer tells me that the difference is insignificant at best. However, I do see the merit with major guns. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Amen

I'm with you guys on the this being more relevant with a polymer gun than an all metal, but saying skilled shooters don't care about perceived recoil is ridiculous. With a proper grip the difference in sights returning is negligible between a chopped up shadow 2 and a stock gun.

If by significant advantage you mean that it increases perceived recoil...

I'm not saying anybody got anything, but I'm sure you can see that with the weight limit changes being what they are, it could make some people wonder.

I don't think the manufacturers are losing much sleep over us but the Dan Wesson DWX, Shadow 2, Glock 34, and especially the new Legion show that manufacturers at least pay attention to the competition world. Also, you have to understand that it looks suspicious to the masses when arbitrary numbers (45oz) are placed on a division only to be changed a short time later. The previous weight limit was set to essentially screw over metal guns and the new one is also pointless because a 59oz minor gun serves no purpose in our sport. Although I don't personally care because I shoot a 34 and will continue to do so, I can certainly understand the frustration of those who spent a lot of time and money making weight, only for it to not matter. It would be nice if in the future, these rule changes occurred at the beginning of the off season rather than right before the season starts up and everyone has already sorted out gear for the year.

Thank you all for the suggestions. The Taran trigger return spring fixed the issue completely. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'll try it out this evening. Thanks I've thought about that but I'm always nervous to mess with that stuff too much.

I forgot to mention that I use the factory trigger return spring. I tried it with and without the plunger spring and it's the same outcome both ways.

I recently picked up my Gen 5 34 that will replace my Gen 4 as my CO match gun. I installed the TTI trigger kit and Jager guiderod with 13lb ISMI spring. I'm very familiar with Glocks and intalling these parts, so it is not likely a user error. The trigger is great, recoil spring passes the test while pressing the trigger, gun feels great overall. However, the trigger safety will not fully reset if my finger is on it during reset. Any thoughts on what could cause this? Please no comments about taking it back to stock, I think we can all agree that the stock trigger sucks.

If anyone is shooting that much slower with major then they have some serious issues with grip, etc. Anyone who is not disabled or a beginner would shoot major faster in many instances. Even if you can split a little faster, you can't out run the points over the course of a match.

A buddy has one for limited and he just replaced the barrel with a non ported, added a magwell, and an Apex trigger. It seems to be just as good as the Glock and XD for limited but with the Apex the trigger is significantly better than the other polymer offerings.

I think the Glock Store extended is probably the longest.

DAA belt, DAA or Ghost pouches, and a boss hanger with either bladetech, unicorn, or redhill holster.

TTI striker spring will be fine, just make sure you change it every 5,000 rounds. I have had problems with the trigger return spring on the Gen 4 but the others in the kit should be good to go. I would stick with the factory weight return spring regardless of generation because it has a much better reset than the higher weight after market stuff.

I prefer the checkered LOK grips because they give all the grip you need without ripping up your hands. If you really like an aggressive grip, the bogies would be the ticket. The ridgebacks just don't have enough bite.

+1, I don't know how much you'll lose going down to a 19 barrel but there is about 5 PF difference in my 34 and 17.

23+1 to start and 22 reloadable is what they should be. I wouldn't mess with followers or springs and risk reliability.

CO shooters are too poor to even know about super comp.

My LGS had one yesterday for $350. The trigger and all the controls feel like a regular Glock and the weight difference doesn't feel like much in the hand. I think it would be a good training gun but I'll pass until the price drops a bit and mags become available.

If you're shooting IPSC I would stay away from the 34 and look at a 17 instead.

I use 125gr Blue Bullets with 3.7 gr TG at 1.12 OAL. In my 34 this gets 133PF and the 17 is 128 PF. I don't think there is much difference in PF between the generations, but its possible to have a slow barrel. When I shot Tanfo my practice gun was almost 5 PF less than the match gun when they were both new.

The only thing I've done that adds weight is a TTI steel guiderod. I don't think it really helps much but I like the recoil with the 13lb spring over factory. I know you're invested in Glock but if you want a heavy gun I'd get the Legion. I don't think you'll shoot any better scores with the legion but it does feel nicer to shoot.

+1 on the SRO. I don't think the RMR will be any better for carry and the SRO is much better for range use.
