Or does the longer sight radius just make it seem that way?
I'm having trouble locating a G34 and am considering going for a G17 which seems to be more readily available. Is there really a big difference between the two? The barrel is 3/4 of an inch longer and it's got an extra inch of sight radius. Other than that, I can equip a G17 with the extended mag release and slide release if I want them, and I can also install a lighter trigger which gives me an identical frame platform as is on a G34. Should I forget about the G34 and just get the G17?
This gun will be used mostly for local plate shoots and rarely to shoot Production division in some USPSA matches for fun. It will probably become a house gun if I ever get a new 1911 in 9mm to replace it. Other than that it will mostly just hang out in the safe just because I want to own a 9mm Glock.
Thanks,
