More Glock connector stuff...

[JBP55]

Sorry to bring up a 3 month old thread. Is the 9mm gen 4 frames smaller or different internally enough that a factory minus connecter rubs on something? Is it possible that the gen 4 45 auto guns have a larger frame and therefore more space for parts to move freely? Is the dot connector rather than the minus connector the better choice for a gen 4 glock?

1. It is just at a slightly different angle.
2. The .45 and 10mm have larger receivers which does not effect the connector.
3. Try both and use the one YOU like best.

I had a Glock 19 gen4 and i tried both and liked the dot connecter better. I like the minus connecter in my Glock 34 gen3 which is my current police duty gun. Regarding my Glock 41 45 auto, the dot connecter and minus connecter feel similar. I wish i had a trigger gauge to measure them. I may reserve the minus factory connecters for gen3 and gen4 45 auto / 10 mm Glocks.

The .45 ACP and 10mm large frame Glocks have a slightly heavier trigger pull than the small frame Glocks. Denham Springs, LA. PD and Walker, LA. PD run G34 Glocks also.

Do you mind if I ask why they like 34's over 17's?

Many of the local SWAT use a G34/G35 and many shoot a G34/G35 better at distance.

If you're going to run a light, the 34 is often better at keeping the lens cleaner.

This and a G19 with a light is just as long as a G34 with a light. So long as the grip is not an issue the G34 is likely better.

Thanks. Those answers make sense to me. I take it no one has had problems with debris and the like entering the slide and causing a jam?

Just apply a bit of vaseline to the bezel/lens. When it begins to dim from residue accumulation, just wipe it clean lickety-split and drive on...
