You could compare it to the 10mm, which I have but that is not the info you are looking for. Full house 10mm has more recoil then the .45acp+P but its still very manageable. When I load the slow 180 grain American Eagles my Glock 20 has less recoil then my fathers Glock 22 with 180 grain American Eagles. Even though the 10mm ammo runs a little faster it doesn't matter. The slide weighs so much more it soaks up the recoil better.
Really?! That is interesting.

Re: My hatred of the .40 S&W, by request

Hey there Gigag04.

There you go getting all logical on me. I agree with everything you said and I would not have been able to do that until TAM let me shoot his .45 one day at the range. I would have never given the .45 a chance, perceiving it as a larger round that would have more recoil than my .40's. Wow! Was I wrong.

It's all your fault TAM. I have been thinking more and more about a .45 in a Glock or some 1911.
