G34 forum

[Glock'n]

Glock Talk needs a G34 forum. There is enough of us on here that own one. What's it take to get one started?

I think a lot more have a G17 and that forum is almost untouched. I guess it wouldn't hurt to try, though.

[Glock'n]

Yeah, but the 17 isn't a 34. And right out of the box it will never be a 34. Seems like everybody is on this practical/tactical kick right now!

Someone mentioned before that we needed a forum for all of the long slided Glock.

I think this would make a better forum with the most possible members. This way there could be discussions on the 17L, 24, 34 and 35. Not to mention the two different calibers of thes 4 models.

I think a 34 only group is just to narrow.

[Glock'n]

I'm down with that!!!

[HAMMERHEAD]

I agree with ffcracker.

[ffcracker]

I started a thread in the clubhouse.
I also put a link to the thread in my SIG below. Lets get this thing rolling. ;a

Where is there a G17 forum? On this board?

[ffcracker]

Its called The Founders Club. Like a lot of the clubs here on GT they have a name that doesnt tell you a lot unless you read the sub title. Here is a link.

ffcracker, bye the time I read the 3rd post, I saw where this was going. Good call.^6

Longslide/Practical-Tactical forum is a great idea. I voted and am in, big time! I've been praising this pistol so much in the past week that two of my co-workers are now looking for one!

Please note for those reading here, there is a link to the forum that needs your response in all of "ffcracker"'s posts. Click the link. Note your support. I think they need 50 to get it started.

[HERB]

I am in.

It makes all G17's feel inadequate;f

That's a start, but I need a really compelling reason [I don't own a G17 anymore - just a G19]. Is it really worth a hundred dollars more than a 17? Is it markedly more accurate? Do I really need another range gun? Should I stop saving my money for a SIG P210? Will it make me more handsome at the range?

By the way, kicking this thread to the top so we can get the Longslide forum going...

[DeLandSkyjumper]

blueiron, keep saving, but buy the 34 instead and order a Carver mount and C-More. And then go out and have some fun with it.

[Wallygator]

Voted!:) I don't have one yet but the 34 is the next one.

;d

[joker22]

Is it that much more in your area? Mine was only $30 more than a G17. ^8

[blueiron]

Yes, unfortunately they are. Very few Glock 9mm pistols in LEO service around here anymore, yet the G34 is still pretty expensive. With CDNN selling used G17 pistols for a very fair price, it makes it hard to justify $200 more than used or $100 more than new.

I still want one, but I jumped on the Steyr M9 before they are no more. Great gun at an unbeatable price. Still looking for a nice used G34 though.

Most definitely. I had a 1st gen 17 years ago and the 34 is a completely different animal. The more I shoot it, the less I shoot my Springfield 1911 ... and that is saying something. If you get one, you will not be dissapointed.

Just ordered a new G34.
I can drive tacks with my other pieces, but my G17 was like a shotgun in my hands.
I used a borrowed G34 and made one big hole at 30 feet. It is as accurate as my Kimber Target II stainless.

[ffcracker]

Wow, I didnt know I was getting such a deal on mine. :cool:
