You could pop the magwell off and shoot production with that one... or take the magwell off and add a dot and shoot Carry Optics.... Is the stippling and undercuts legal for production?

What’s the main difference between production and limited?
If production,and say you’re shooting a 34, what’s the most you can do to it to stay production?

Just looked it up, looks like you’re just not allowed magwells or optics and only allowed 10 rounds in the mag because everything is scored minor. Also looks like they changed the rules and stippling and undercuts are allowed just can’t make a makeshift magwell.

Everything I just listed I’d do to the 35. 34 is stippled too which I’d probably do to the 35 after a while but not right when I got it. Lipstick on a pig, it’s still a pig.

Glock 35
To the guy who wants to show up and watch the match, show up and shoot the match.
I showed up to watch a match back in 1994 and people kept walking up to me with guns, gear, and ammo telling me to go shoot. I said no, I am just watching. A guy walks over to the scorekeeping table, comes back, and says "I paid your match fee, you have no excuses now". I had a blast, and it started a gunpowder addiction that continues to this day.
Keep in mind that every Master and GrandMaster in the sport drove up to a match for the first time just like you will.
Just my .02, LeonCarr

Not sure I understand your post. If you’re saying Glocks suck, then by all means share what pistol you shoot in competition. Thanks

Kyle, could you put a 40 cal barrel in the G34 to make it 40 cal? All you would need is mags at that point. Would that change the class or division at that point?

Nope I wish, can only go down can’t go up. You can put a 9mm barrel in 35 slide but not the other way around the 34 slide barrel opening won’t fit the circumference of the 40 barrel. I could probably find a 35 top end and slide it on the 34 frame since they’re the same.

That makes 2 of us, I’ve only shot one other pistol competition and that was with a 1911 single stack and did not do too well. Only competition I shoot is rifles. Pistols is a whole new beast to me.

Just grab a .40 long slide, barrel, and magazines.

Just grab a .40 long slide, barrel, and magazines. That would be ideal, but I'm finding full G35 guns that are medium condition for around $350 and like new G35 Gen4's for around $415. All the complete slides are around $400. I'd rather just grab one of the full guns and mod it and have 2. Some of the prices I've seen on the slides are crazy.

I looked at building a slide a couple times and it always was just about equal to the cost of a whole gun. Plus going from 9 to .40 you should really change the extractor.
New gun!!

New gun!! Yes new gun, and I'm staying with Glock, just have too much experience with it. No sense in swapping platforms. Planning on: Glock 35 Gen 4 TTI Grand Master Connector Kit TTI Ultimate Fiber Optic Sight Set TTI Lightning Magwell TTI +4 Extended Mag Bases (RED) GS Super Heavy Tungsten Guide Rod and 15# spring APEX Action Enhanced Trigger Kit (RED) 2000 rounds of 180gr ammo Will still be able to use all my existing gear and will still be under the cost of a used STI.

Sounds like you got a plan. My favorite trigger to date in Glocks (and I’ve tried a bunch, including zev, Vogel, “the edge” etc) is the TTI kit and an overtravel stop. You can get an ejector housing with the OT stop screw off ebay/glockstore and others for about $15. That’s what I had in my gen 4 17 Carry Optics gun and had no complaints. I have not got my hands on the new hotness, Johnny Glock, so I can’t give an opinion on it.
I prefer the Dawson basepads; they’re a lot easier to take apart for cleaning and should hold the same (I think I got 19 in my g35–been awhile though). TTI makes good stuff, but I think the basepads are a pain.
Only other thing I would add to the list: practice.

Looks like the match has been canceled due to rain. Guess that gives me 2 weeks to get the G35 ready to roll!
