Customer Reviews for Glock G34 Gen3 Competition CA Compliant 9mm Pistol

great for competition pistol Glock perfection is real especially with the Glock 34. Great pistol at a great price from Buds you can’t go wrong

Nice pistol very fun. It’s a Glock nothing special but it works every time

Typical Glock quality. Would benefit from better sights but that's just normal Glock.

I mean it's a Glock, it works most of the time, but with the Gen 3 I did have some ejection/extraction issues, you'll need to spend a bit in fixing those so keep that in mind, if you can go for the Gen4 or Gen5 do it.

Very accurate pistol and light enough to shoot for long periods of time

Love this Glock 34 wish I had gotten one yrs ago changed sights out for truglo sights very happy with purchase Buds service great as always

3/23/21. Glock 34, Gen 3. Well my first impression I was skeptical of all the plastic and polymer such as main frame, adjustable rear sight, recoil spring plastic rod and plastic/polymer coated magazines. However in about 6-weeks I’ve shot 1200 rounds of 115gr round nose, P 9mm jacketed bullets and the only issue was two rounds that failed to fire which is not a G34 issue. A few turns with the included tool on the adjustable sight and the pistol has been accurate at 25yds. Pretty amazing. The slide release is a pain until you get accustomed the releases operation and short lever. After all the rounds there is no sign of wear on the barrel finish or the slide and the 3-pins that the hold the pistol locking block, trigger and trigger housing are still snug. I have disassembled the pistol completely, except for removing the plastic channel liner and mag release and this one of the simplest semiauto I’ve worked on. The mags have worked flawlessly. I clean and light oil about every 200 rounds. I don’t think you can go wrong with this pistol. Personally I see not reason to do any mods to this gun for the every day shooter for completion maybe a trigger job and the sights.

My first Glock it’s a good gun like it a lot. Can’t wait to get another one maybe a bigger caliber

I don’t have the gun just yet, because of California crazy laws (already at my FFL) but buds pulled thru again, even with the covid going on still got my firearm to my FFL in a timely matter
Keep it up buds employees

I bought this pistol since I wanted a full size Glock in 9mm for practice/training/competition. I had found that I was usually carrying a Glock but was usually training and competing with a 1911 so bought this to allow a closer crossover between my carry and target guns, also going to a 9mm over 45ACP would lower my practice costs meaningfully.
The gun showed up on time, was reasonably priced at $50 over the 17/19 duty Glocks which seemed a great deal for adjustable sights and a longer slide/barrel. The gun has been quite reliable and reasonably accurate. At this point I have put about 300 rounds through it over a couple of sessions and have had 4 jams and no misfires. Of the jams, one seemed to be a gun based failure to feed around round 100. One of the included magazines is very tight on the 10th round and I had loaded this mag, plus one in the chamber and the drag of the magazine on an almost new gun caused a failure to fully eject on the first round. The other three malfunctions were with a reload that has bullets seated long for increased accuracy in a different gun with a really long throat and the bullet hit the rifling in the Glock and stopped the slide before it was in battery, this is not a gun issue and is easily remedied by racking the slide.
The gun shoots slightly high for me even with the sights adjusted all the way down but it works out fine for a 6 o-clock hold on a 4" round and could be adjusted for any larger size bull desired. The trigger is typical Glock mush, a bit lighter than most due to the 3.5# connector. Accuracy out of the box was acceptable but not great, 3-4" at 25yd but has gotten better over the few hundred rounds and is now running about 2.5" with cheap ammo, so not 1911 bullseye accuracy but decent for the price paid. One thing nice is that for the price paid compared to a 1911 pattern gun I can put some $ towards sights and a match barrel if desired and still be less than the 1911 while filling my desire to have a target pistol with the operating system of my carry guns. It is thin and light enough I would consider carrying it concealed if I was wearing something that covered slide length well, though there are better choices for concealment. Overall I am quite satisfied with my purchase and am looking forward to putting many thousands of rounds through this gun over the coming years.

Good shipping. Package not damaged.

Longest glock to fit in the box. Since I don't compete with my Glocks I ended up getting a 17L as well but this is a sweet shooting version of the full-size Glock 9mm. Works with your 17 mags and parts. No regrets... thinking about getting another one.

Flawless! Grips are best for someone with larger hands. I have 700 rounds through mine and I'm thoroughly impressed. Excellent accuracy, smooth trigger, super reliable. What more could you ask for?

this is my 2nd glock have a 17 gen 1 I love but this 34 shoots great 2" groups at 25 yds not to bad for me had 2 jams 1st 50 rounds have 500 out of it now works great now guess it was just breaking in buds was good but it was 2 weeks to get it but I saved over 50 bucks easy so no biggie just ordered kimber 45 now hope its as good a gun thanks buds glock em till ya drop em

10th PERFECT, FLAWLESS, transaction from Buds of course. Shipped immediately after receiving certified funds, etc..A+ as usual. For the pistol, I immediately upgraded the sights to Dawson front .285 fiber optic sight & Dawson serrated adjustable rear, because we all know that factory Glock sights are plastic & not the best sights (that's being polite), but for $598 it sure is a heck of a deal. After swapping out the sights & installing a Lone Wolf guide rod, Ghost Rocket 3.5 connector, Wolff 4 lb trigger spring, this pistol shoots accurate as all heck. True, this pistol comes from the factory w/ a 4 lb trigger but I wanted it a tad faster, but the way the trigger came stock would be great for most shooters. I put 100 rounds at 15 yards downrange into a grouping about the size of a silver dollar! Accurate, minimal rise (thanks to the metal guide rod & front porting on the slide). I am ready for some serious competitions this summer! I love Glocks & I love BUDS!! Thanks again

Best pistol for IDPA! Never fails.

Absolutely the best production competition pistol ever! I have 2 of these and they are wonderful guns. Plenty of aftermarket parts and accessories. Great buy from Buds once again. GLOCK PERFECTION

Glock G34 Gen 4. I think this is a great gun with the exception of the rear adjustable sight. Normal use (vibrations) cause it to move. It's based on a cam mechanism rather than a screw to lift the rear, so there is no way to fix it at your desired setting. I immediately replaced it with a nice DP and front fiber optic. Seems very accuarate. I'm shooting 2" groups at 50' - and I'm sure that could be improved if I had better eyesight! BTW: No issues with the new spring assembly. I have noticed that the rounds won't reliably chamber if you manually release the slide. If you let the slide release do the work it never has any issues.

I received my G-34 and it looks and feel so very nice. Next week it's gonna be a product-testing time of 200-rnds.. But, I just wanna mention that Buds GunShop.com is the very best dealer so far that I personally experienced. i've been with so many dealers thru the years (30-yrs.), but never experience so simple to deal with and super fast to deliver the Item, that's BudsGunShop.com. From the time they received my payment, it only took them 3-days to deliver it to my FFL-dealer (CA.). For me this is where I'll purchase my future guns forever. Thank you so much, "Bud". Joel Y.

This is the first Glock I've owned and it's a great, lightweight pistol. Very accurate and a great trigger pull. Buds is the best when it comes to customer service.

I just picked up this exact G34 10rd Adj Sights; it's a great, perfect shooter. The frame is exactlly that of the G17 and G22, so it holsters into the same Serpa without having to buy another. That is, if you don't mind the last 3/4 inch of the slide tip, barrel, and oh-so-vulnerable front sight hanging out just waiting to bang into a table or chair. I have the G17, G19 and have to be honest, this one is more accurate although slightly ungainly. It doesn't have the same degree of muzzle flip, and accessorized it has even less movement after each shot. Add a GG&G force block, tac light, and a few Israeli-made...ahem..."accessories" and you've got a real combat-ready tactical pistol.

I purchased this Pistol when it first came out a few years ago. It truly it is one of my favorites. I have never had a failure to function or fire that were the fault of the gun. I had mine slicked up with the #3.5 disconector and an action job. I own several Glocks and truly love this one
