I bought a Glock 34 gen 4 about a year ago. I'd only had one other Glock before, an older g17, so I am a novice to glocks and really to handguns in general.

I have enjoyed shooting the pistol, but was consistently shooting to the left, making nice tight groups about 1-2" to the left of the bullseye. I adjusted the rear sight way over to the right, which helped some, but it still tended to hit to the left of whatever I was shooting at.

I did some reading here and on other forums, and found that I am not the only one with this problem.  Finally I read someone's opinion that people tend to shoot left if they get too much finger on the trigger, and that a bigger grip might help correct the problem.

have large hands -- not chunky, just long fingers. So I tried putting on the large grip attachment and took it to the range today.

Wow! what a difference.  the pistol feels so much more comfortable in my hand, and accuracy was vastly improved.  I ran one mag through it, then moved the sight back to the center and ran two more magazines through it.  Huge improvement.  I feel stupid for not trying this sooner.

I have the same problem, I can put all my shots in a nice tight group, but they are all a lil left to my intended target. I also have large hands and long fingers. My glock is a gen 3 so I dont have the option to adjust my grip size.

what about trying one of the rubber slip on grips, I think Hogue makes them?

A friend of mine is a well-known pistol instructor.  He runs a class called "You suck, it's not the gun."

I had the same problem with both my dads and my glocks.  Too little trigger finger for me. One session at the range being conscious of the issue and it's all cleared up

Dry fire, dry fire, dry fire, dry fire, ball & dummy drill, dry fire. Fixes %95 percent of I'm hitting (insert direction) of my target.

oh, I know I suck. I never doubted it.  I'm not much of a pistol shooter, but I would like to be able to shoot a good pistol (my glock) decently. changing the grip size has definitely helped.
