This guide, informed by SPN Firearms, explains the physics behind muzzle flip in handguns. It highlights how the reciprocating mass of a longer slide and barrel contributes to greater muzzle rise, impacting follow-up shot speed. The video demonstrates this by comparing the Glock 40 and Glock 29, both in 10mm Auto, showing that the shorter Glock 29, despite potentially more felt recoil, exhibits less muzzle flip, enabling faster target re-acquisition. The expert analysis suggests that for optimal carry, a full-sized grip paired with a shorter slide assembly is ideal.
