Before I shoot my new G34?????

[Markcuda]

I plan to get a G34 in a week of two and want to know if there is anything I need to do to the gun before I fire it?
I though that I read some place (here maybe) that a person needs to clean it first ;P
Please give me any advice that you think I would need :)
I want to brake my baby in right :cool:

mmmmm, maybe treat it like you did your other two glocks? ^8

Some folks shoot a new Glock as it comes out of the box. Some clean and lube first. Cleaning mostly involves removing the copper-colored anti-seize compound (new Glocks aren't very dirty); lubing means using just a drop of lube on those locations specified in the manual.

I've done it both ways. I don't think it matters much either way, but the anti-seize goo does tend to get on everything, so I have a slight preference for cleaning and lubing before firing. However, it IS a good idea to field-strip your new Glock before shooting it for the first time: for practice, to check for bore obstructions (unlikely), to perform the "safety checks" specified in the manual. and to clean and lube if you so desire.

And what makes you think my other 2 Glocks were bought new ;Q

Sorry, I should not have assumed that. Have fun with your new 34!
