boudreux Posted April 13, 2018 Author Share Posted April 13, 2018 I don't know how missed that. I wonder why he went with the 17 as opposed to the 34? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HCH Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 What would be the advantage of a 34 over a 17 in Carry Optics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was asked why choose the 34 over the 17, I figured why choose the 17 over 19. To me the larger gun can’t be negative whether it’s iron sights or a dot gun.

HCH Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 I really can’t figure why one would want a 34 over a 17 in CO. Sure, a tenth of a grain less powder to make power factor, but also an extra inch hanging off the pistol for no good reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul49 Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 No good reason? More weight less recoil or muzzle rise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pskys2 Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 (edited) The 17 and 34 are supposed to start out weighing the same, but another reason for the 34 over a 17 if it's a MOS pop off the dot and shoot production (if you want the extra sight length). But in reality with a dedicated CO, there is no serious advantage of either. I don't believe the advantage of the 34 sight radius is big enough to help in Production either. But I have 2 34's, a Gen 3 and a Gen 4 MOS both set up with dots for the Free State. Have a Jpoint on the G3 and a DPP on the G4 MOS, do like it best. The bigger advantage to me is the grip on the G4's and up, I'm 6' and work with my hands, but have stubby fingers the G4 grip with no adapter fits great. So go with a MOS and look for the best price on either, more money to accessorize, get a good dot and PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE!!! Ha! just reread the original. It's KC Eusibio, that's the advantage. Edited April 22, 2018 by pskys2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9x45 Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 (edited) The G34 uses a G17 lower, so no difference in grip frame there. The G34 upper is .7 ounces heavier, so a tiny advantage but more swing time. The longer sight radius of the G34 does not come into play with a dot, as dots are target focused, wouldn't matter if its a G26 or G17L. And you don't need the extra barrel length to make Minor anyway in Carry Optics. My G17 Minor load goes about 35 fps faster in my G34 and about 65 fps faster in my G17L. So no change in powder charge weight is needed. And besides, powder is the least expensive component. At 3.4 grains of TG, that's 16,700 rounds per 8 lb jug... It's interesting because I used to shoot USPSA at Norco Running Gun with KC's dad, Tata Eusebio, back in the early 90's. He ran a Limited gun with no sights. KC started (at what seemed like knee high) with an STI Open Minor gun. Then one day, he went from a skinny little Pinoy to Arnold Schwarzenegger. One of KC's cousins at the about the same age as KC starting... Then he grew up.... and starting scoring chics...

9x45 Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 I run 124 Bayous over 3.4 grs of TG at 1.100" making 129 PF out of a OEM G17 for USPSA . Lots of guys run 147s/160s also. For Steel Challenge, you want the lightest and fastest bullet because there is no power floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
