GLOCK 34

|
The GLOCK 34 is a 9mm pistol designed and manufactured by GLOCK. It is a combat competition shooting pistol with a standard magazine capacity of 17 rounds of ammunition. It is similar to both the GLOCK 17 and the GLOCK 17L. The receiver and magazine are interchangeable with those of the GLOCK 17. The slide and barrel are longer than those of the GLOCK 17.
The GLOCK 34 has become very popular in IPSC shooting competitions because of its simple controls, adjustable sights, high durability and moderate price along with good accuracy.
Like most GLOCK guns, the name is often referred to as a "Glock" and not as "GLOCK". According to GLOCK—the company that manufactures the gun—this is incorrect. GLOCK refers to all its guns with all uppercase letters.
