    Educate Me on Gen 4 Glocks vs Gen 3's.

    The Gen 4 Glocks have been out for a while and I need some education on their preformances. I shoot in some high speed, low drag, shooting disciplines with Gen 3 Glocks and I was wondering how the Gen 4's match up to the Gen 3's? I'm thinking a faster recovery time b/c of the dual recoil...
