Okay, I just put a 150 rounds through my new gen 4 glock 22. There is signifcantly less recoil than the previous gen 3's. I shot my gen 3 22C for a mag, then my gen 4 22 for a mag, etc.

The gen 4 grip is a couple mm thinner than the gen 3, but I don't have any of the backstraps on. (You get 2 additional backstraps with the gen 4.)

The recoil is significantly less than my gen 3 22c. Granted the gen 4 is new and my gen 3 has seen 8000 plus rounds, But still it is no contest, the gen 4 is awesome.

Cleaning and disassmbly are the same, with the gen 4 spring being a just a tad picky with how the recoil spring goes back in.

Accuracy is standard Glock, ie: it's perfect. No malfunctions, and it goes bang everytime you want it to.

SO: If you have a gen 3 or older glock, get yourself a gen 4. Plain and simple.

As a side note, I picked up a new KIMBER today too. LOL.
