    G4 Glock 19 recoil question

    Started the 10 day thing yesterday. Those that have one,what can I expect as far as recoil with the dual recoil springs? I understand they are not much different than the G3's in recoil. Recoil not an issue as I have a G30SF, G36 and a G26. I like the new texture on the G4's frame and it felt slimmer than the G19 I had from the early 90's. If this one works out I may get one for the wife. Lets hear it Cal-gunners,thanks in advance.

    I have both G3 and G4. The recoil is almost the same for both. I really can't tell the different. Make sure to find some hot ammo (124gr or Nato round) to break in your Glock Gen 4 (50 to 100 rounds of hot ammo then you can start shooting your regular 115gr range ammo)

          Nope.. Just for the Gen 4 because of the dual recoil springs.

              Broke in my G4 G19 with 280 rounds of WWB 115 gr and Monarch 115 gr without a problem at all.

                9mm has recoil?

                actually, I've never fired a Gen 4, but I love the other G19s I've fired. I'm not wild about trigger feel, but they feel great and shoot well.

                  Ditto on the WWB loads. I then followed up with some of my Sissy-La-La reloads. No problems at all.
