tdp88 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 I am a master in limited and production. Like I said, you’re a really good shooter. The average B class guy doesn’t usually win limited shooting minor. You using factory 19 mags? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slalom45 Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 Jeff Cawthon is the guy. Has to hurt to get curb stomped by a dude with 9 rounds when you just spent all that money on new set of limited mags that feed..... Most of the time. In all seriousness I think that's an amazing achievement. Props to him! BTW. I used the competitor app to change him to minor. He would have still come out 6th.

leemoe83 Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 (edited) I have not shot the G34 heavily since 2014. Mostly shoot a Stock 2. I pulled my G34 out and have playing around with it and added a tungsten guide rod, thug plug, and brass base pads. The extra weight helps the gun settle a little faster on the draw, transitions, and recoil. It also allows a little more aggression on the trigger. If I were real serious about the 34 I would get as much weight on the frame and non-reciprocating parts as possible. Trigger upgrades other than the connector don't work well for my style of shooting so I prefer a stock striker spring for a firmer reset (I use more strong hand tension than most shooters). I usually end up with a 4 pound trigger so the weight helps. Edited July 3, 2020 by leemoe83 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike4045 Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 I have no issue running with a 34 in A class. I added Warren Sevigny sights, tungsten rod and 15# spring. I have no doubt I could make master if I actually practiced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

horhey232 Posted July 22, 2020 Author Share Posted July 22, 2020 So post range report from shooting a match after adding all that weight to my Glock. In my personal opinion it makes a huge difference. Recoil was super easy to manage and I was able to reacquire a sight picture much faster making my splits more accurate and faster. 10/10 would advise doing. For those of you curious here is my parts list: https://www.glockstore.com/Super-Heavy-Tungsten-Guide-Rod?quantity=1&custcol8=3 34 extended, 15#, uncaptured https://www.glockstore.com/Thug-Plug full size frame, gen 3 ***filed to fit within Production rules*** https://www.glockstore.com/Stainless-Steel-Pin-Kit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowdyb Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 (edited) Have one of the Team Glock shooters shoot in Prod most of their matches. That's the only way I see to make the gun more relevant in the division. The joe average shooters has to see a sponsored person doing it to have the spark in their mind about "hmmmm maybe I should try a 34 in Prod....".
