The 34 does not have a ported or compensated barrel. It only has a portion of the top of the slide cut out for weight reduction.

I vote G34 for your stated purpose.
Happy for you, that you've found what works for you (hopefully?)
Good info on the dime/slot. Thanks for that, guys. Hopefully none will carry loose G34/35's in a pocket and not in a holster. That's a lot of weight moving around in your pocket, and keeping change in there isn't wise with a loaded pistol.
For classes and home defense I would go with the G17. Great balance and very accurate.
After having owned all the 9mm glocks except the 17L and 18
I like the 17 and the 26 the best
They are the two that I shoot the best
