| Ever since I saw man on fire, I've thought about trading my colt 1991a1 for a glock 34. Am I crazy? |
| I liked my g22 much better than my g35 for some reason. I ended up trading the g22 for a g17 and the g35 for a g26. I don't think I'd ever get another g35 or g34. I thought it would be awesome. The g22 shot just as good just didn't have all the bells and whistles. |
| I have a G22. Before I bought one I thought the 17/23 was the nicest. Now that I have a 19/22 I think they are the most balanced in size vs handling. I think the 34/35 just looks too galky/long/unbalanced. The favorite handguns that I own apeal to me on multi levels, they feel good in my hand, I shoot them well, and I like the way they look, the 23 seems stubby the 22 just right, the 35 too long and the compacts look weird to me, call me Goldylocks |

The 19 is the compact and the 17 is the full size 9 The 22 is the full size .40 and the 23 is the compact.

Go with the 34. Here is a target from our last range day.
3 yards = 12 rounds 7 yards = 12 rounds 15 yards = 12 rounds 25 yards = 12 rounds 50 yards = 12 rounds http://i275.photobucket.com/albums/jj299/LJ_255/10-20-08_1216.jpg |

A few years back I was lookng for a 17L. I couldn't find one so I finally gave up and settled for a 34. Then, less than a month later I stubbled accross a 17L. So in true ARFCOM tradition, I bought it too.

Brazos Jack (whoever has the most toys when he dies, wins) I know get both, but I have been looking at the 34 and 17L , could you compare and contrast possible for me ? Thanks |

I've sold and traded many guns to get others. Most of the time I regretted it. I should have kept then all.
I stoot a Glock 34 in USPSA competition and carry a Glock 23 as my LEO duty weapon. After making a CCW holster for my Glock 34, I often now carry it on duty with a spare 33 round magazine. "Why Waltz When You Can Rock and Roll."
