Certainly some flex in the frame of the Glock:





"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

"When it comes to the enemy, just because they ain't pullin' a trigger, doesn't mean they ain't totin' ammo for those that are."~PegLeg

Ahhh...good find Peg.

Reminds me of the tree in the hurricane....it can either bend or break....

This might also contribute to why felt recoil is less with a Glock.

Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

I've been thinking about this.
Without any real testing, research, or evidence, I think 2How may have a valid point about lighter polymer slides requiring more resistance to cycle properly.

Who uses polymer slides?


I suppose this is the ONLY correct reply - but I'll let you decide which picture. ;D
And thanks for the replies everyone.

Sorry, the only pics I saved I can't post here.  ;)
You can say lots of bad things about pedophiles; but at least they drive slowly past schools.

Reminds me of slapping  your M16 magazine against your helmet before inserting it.

During WWII that was how the Japanese armed their grenades.
Gave a whole new meaning to ALWAYS wear your helmet.
Must have sucked to be caught in a soft cover.  ;D

First time I shot a 44 mag was in a Desert Eagle and I managed to get a FTE...Stovepipe...

Not being sure of the recoil, I deliberately kept a firm grip on the gun but allowed it to pivot my arm upward at the elbow and shoulder.  FTE every time.

When I held it on target, no problems.
