sikocycles Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) My Gen 4 34&35 did not come with them but my G17 I bought yesterday did come with them Suck now that I need to spend 32 dollars on the beaver tails for my 34/35.

DonovanM Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 (edited) I tried a Grip Force Adapter today - pretty much the same as the factory beavertail - and I am glad I didn't spend any money on it because I think it is pointless unless you get slide bite, which I don't (anymore). I'm not sure what all the hubbub is about. Also it wouldn't be legal on a G34 because then it wouldn't fit in the box. Should be legal on a smaller gun though.

tomthumb Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 My G34 Gen 4 fits in the box with the ribbed Grip Force Adapter. I built a box to make certain it would fit along with DP mag plates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwc Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 I just picked up a Gen 4 17 and 34 for my kids and both came with the beavertails. It was a pleasant surprise as they both complain about glock bite. I have been shooting Glocks for 20 years and never thought the grip needed the new backstraps, but I gotta admit that I REALLY liked the grip with the large beavertail! I may have to make my own box to see if the 34 will fit... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonovanM Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 My G34 Gen 4 fits in the box with the ribbed Grip Force Adapter. I built a box to make certain it would fit along with DP mag plates. Really! I thought it just barely fit stock. Huh, nevermind then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwc Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Just measured my Gen 34 with large beavertail from barrel tip to end of beavertail and looks like 8.75 inches. Should be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SecretNY Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 So when would it (or is it already) legal for Production? Thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericjhuber Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 (edited) I'm guessing it's not going to be an issue since, based on tomthumb's picture, the beavertail isn't adding to the length of the overall gun. However, mwc's measurements for the largest version is showing that it might add just a bit since he's getting 8.75 and Glock says the stock G34 Gen4 is 8.74. The USPSA Inspection box is 8.9375. So we just need someone to chuck their G34 Gen4 with the full sized beavertail grips into an official USPSA Inspection box to be sure.

LuisToledo Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 My new G34 gen4 came with a set of beavertail backstraps. The new G23 I bought didn't though. I think it's only on full frame models currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Weidhaas Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 My Gen 4 G17 that I got April 12 had the beavertail back straps included. The LE Gen 4 G22's we got at work earlier this year didn't. I emailed Glock to see if we could get the beavertail back straps for our work G22's and was told the Gen 4s just started shipping with the beavertails back straps in March. Glock is offering a beavertail kit (1) med and (1) large for $16.00. I tried them both on my gun and didn't care for the large, but the medium was pretty nice. They definitely have a different feel than the original back straps. I was using a large original back strap on my work gun, but found the beavertail large too big, especially at the web of my hand. The large beavertail wouldn't let me get as high on the backstrap as I wanted. Obviously everyones hands are different and to each their own, but the two different back straps definitely have a different feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bishop414 Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Just spoke with Glock customer service, very nice. They had received my fax order, charged card, and sent parts out. She was even able to give a tracking number. Took about 1 month from order to delivery, should have this afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dogtired Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I emailed Glock after reading this last night and received a response bright and early this am. They sent me a list of parts for ordering and the Beavertail backstraps were on the list. I ordered a few today. Here is the order form... http://us.glock.com/...n_Certified.pdf My order arrived today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
