Product Overview
Equipped with a 5.31-inch barrel, the Glock 34 boasts the longest sight radius and the highest muzzle velocity of any Glock. ... With that said, the Glock 34 is more than enough for your home defense needs.
The Glock 34 was introduced in 1998 as a competition-ready 9mm pistol. The main differences between the full-size Model 17 and the long slide Model 34 include a 5.32" barrel for the 34 (0.82" longer than the 17) with corresponding longer slide, extended magazine and slide releases and a reduced trigger pull. The longer slide results in a longer sight radius and a slightly better balance of the pistol, resulting in quicker recovery between shots.

Glock 34 gen 3 review
Our current G34Gen3 stock (November 2020) sells at R11 200.00 Now for one of the most popular pistols among IDPA competitors that is a phenomenal deal. If you’re looking for a good, full size tactical pistol you won’t do much better than the GLOCK 34. Competitor or not. The 34 is a big gun and as would be expected recoil is minimal, and recovery is quick shot to shot. The single recoil spring employs the guide rod system. Many serious shooters prefer this to the dual recoil system of the Gen4/5 G34’s.
