GLOCK GEN 4

Every GLOCK Gen4 pistol model allows the user to change the circumference of the grip to fit the individual hand size and comes with two sizes of backstraps in two different shapes. The backstraps are easily changed and secured to the frame with a single pin offering the following options: a short frame (SF) version, a medium (M) and a large (L) version.

The medium and the large version can be chosen with or without beaver tail, the beaver tail backstraps keeping large hands clear of the slide.

The short frame (SF) version without any backstrap mounted still remains a complete fully functional frame. Its dimensions are smaller than previous generations.

The grip angle of the GLOCK Safe Action pistol remains unchanged even when modifying the backstraps.

The smallest back strap is integrated in the GLOCK MBS frame reducing the trigger distance of the standard size frame by approximately .08 in. The medium back strap adds approximately .08 in. - equaling the size of a standard frame - and the large back strap increases trigger distance by a total of approximately .16 in.

The magazine release catch of the Gen4 is reversible and enlarged. The reversible magazine catch allows users to switch the catch to the left or right side of the pistol with no additional parts.

Internally, the original recoil spring has been replaced with a dual recoil spring assembly. The dual recoil spring assembly noticeably reduces the felt recoil while simultaneously increasing the life span of the assembly

Additionally, the Gen4 has a new Rough Textured Frame (RTF) surface designed to enhance grip traction and is present on the frame as well as the interchangeable back straps.
