Flexmoney Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 I passed. (wanted a picture of a label and didn't find one quickly, with a G34/35 and the heavier connector) Not as fun without visual aides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrinC Posted May 23, 2012 Author Share Posted May 23, 2012 Technically, the 34 & 35 are different from the other models since they come with the 3.5-lb connector as original equipment. While that statement is true for the RED and WHITE label boxed pistols ('civilian models'), it doesn't apply to many of the BLUE label G34/G35 pistols (those available through the LEO/GSSF program). I mention this only in case someone goes to buy one through the LEO/GSSF program; they should look at the label to ID what they are getting - if it says 4.5#, they are getting the 'competition' '-' connector; if it says 5.5#, they are getting the regular connector. I didn't even know they were sent in different boxes. All of our firearms come in the black box. I can say this because the shipment mine came in also had units for our LEO's, and they were all in identical boxes with the same specs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flexmoney Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 PrinC, What you need to know is that there are a number of different "stock" configurations that your Glock can come in. The most common are setups with a 3.5lb connector, a 5lb connector or an 8lb spring. And, to further confuse things, they started calling the 3.5lb connector a 4.5, etc. Plus, there is plenty of after-market stuff out there as well. If you don't know the differences, look them up. (and post a picture here) I like to run similar trigger parts in all of my Glocks, which gives them a...near enough... identical trigger. Beyond that, see post #10 of this thread.

They are all in the BLACK box - it is the label placed on the handle that differentiates the contents inside. I would almost bet that all of the LEO guns had BLUE labels on them.

mda Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Not sure if it was a 34 or 35, but watched Vogel make Open GM with just a comp'ed barrel and iron sights in a special classifier match. MDA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDA Glock 34 shooting Major 9mm. Iron sights. And a comp. Shot 6 classifiers that day. And at least 4 of the 6 were 100%'ers ............... in OPEN!

Now I am understanding what was said.Its the 'label'on the boxes that differentiate them.......lol.
