    Glock 19 recoil reduction

    Hi calguns does any one have any experience with the DPM double recoil system for Glocks. I have a G19 and would like to reduce the recoil and I heard that changing to a double recoil spring is the best way to accomplish that.Its doesn't have to be that brand but thats the only one I know of does anyone have any. As always any advise is greatly appreciated.

    Looks really gimmicky. Proper shooting technique eliminates the use of any recoil reducing gadgets for pistols.

      Those recoil systems are more gimmick than anything else. Also changes the recoil impulse feel of the gun. Makes it harder to properly time the pistol. Try a non-captured steel guide rod and a lighter recoil spring.

        Have one I received as a demo. It works but not as noticable as .40. Im running the stock after running the system for 1000+ rounds. If you are in LA or Orange county, I can let you run it for a bit.

          Best thing I can think of to reduce the recoil in your G19 is to take a airweight .357 and shoot a box of the good stuff through her. Next pick up the G19 and it should feel like just a little nudge.

            Yeah. Anything to reduce the recoil of the mighty 9mm...

                    perhaps a lone wolf ported barrel???

                    +1 on working on your shooting technique. I can't really tell the difference between my .45 and my 9mm now that i learned how to shoot better.

                    Most civilization is based on cowardice. It's so easy to civilize by teaching cowardice. You water down the standards which would lead to bravery. You restrain the will. You regulate the appetites. You fence in the horizons. You make a law for every movement. You deny the existence of chaos. You teach even the children to breathe slowly. You tame.

                      I've fired the compensated 19. Not a whole lot of difference.

                      You need moar powder in yer .45...

                          I would look at reloading to a milder load rather then messing with the gun. My compeition load for 9mm is very soft shooting in my CZ75. Brianenos.com forum has a bunch of very soft loads for 9mm.

                            Don't buy gadgets...buy ammo and a lane. Shoot your gun....you won't think twice about recoil once you get used to it. The Glock 19 is a pretty mild recoiling gun. Just takes practice to get used to controlling it. Buying different guide rods and springs is a waste of money on a Glock IMO. So is anything beyond better sights and a little trigger work (I put a set of 10-8's, did some polishing/stoning on the ignition components and put a dehorned extended vickers mag release on mine...it's perfect now).

                            You don't need to "upgrade" your pistol....just your skills. You'll get progressively better. It's a process a FUN process

                              I hope we're not attributing this grip to Travis Haley (Magpul). This was a grip developed by Rob Leatham and Brian Enos decades ago.

                              But yes, this grip is fantastic at recoil management.
