Glock 22 control snap

[whtl]

How can I control the snap when I fire my Glock 22? Trigger work, replace guide rod assembly etc. Thanks.

Just a matter of ensuring you consistently use a proper grip.

It can be helpful to have an instructor evaluate it .. what 'looks' right to you might not be best.

Then, just lots and lots of rounds down range.

By snap, do you mean recoil/muzzle raise?

Grip harder.

What is the purpose of your gun/ammo/range time?
If SD/HD buy low recoil reloads and just practice with low recoil and full power.
If for fun, a tungsten guide rod helps.

Stronger hands, stronger arms, proper grip. Its physics, not magic.

It is physics, but it is based more on proper technique...hand/arm geometry and force vectors...than on strength.

Instruction is a faster, and cheaper, route than trial and error

Get a 22C...

Or, but a ported Lone Wolf barrel...

Just focus on your trigger control, sear reset, and sight picture. Don't think about the recoil because that's how you develop a flinch. Proper grip is important to control the recoil for follow up shots, but there is such a thing as gripping too hard. If your hands get fatigued or begin to shake it means your gripping it too hard. Your dominate hand should be fairly relaxed and the only thing that needs to move is your trigger finger. Your weak hand is what you use to lock the gun into place.

What your looking for is to let the recoil occur, but to manage it so that your sights naturally fall into the same place after each round. Eventually you'll find a natural rythym that is consistent. Once you get used to that you could shoot pretty much any handgun accurately from a .22lr to a .500 magnum.

Classes definitely help and of course putting thousands of rounds down range.

Every post gives me a better idea. Thanks

Have a friend take a picture of how you're gripping the gun...
