The Glock 22 .40S&W has been the standard issue sidearm for many police departments for over 2 decades. The lightweight polymer frame of the Glock 22 Gen4 is ergonomic, and easy to carry all day. The 4th generation of the Glock pistol incorporates several new features that make the gun more efficient for more shooters. Interchangeable backstraps will fit the gun more comfortably into differnt shooters hands. Improved grip texture is more aggressive than earlier models which is great for law enforcement who may need their gun in different weather elements. Large magazine release gives the shooter more surface area for more positive control over getting the magazine out of the gun, it is also able to be reversed for left handed shooters. The largest improvement on the Glock 22 Gen4 is the larger improved dual recoil spring assembly, this increases service life of critical parts and also alleviates a small amount of recoil. Glock Gen4 pistols ship with 3 magazines instead of 2, making them perfect for uniform law enforcement carry or home defense where an extra magazine could be life saving. This Glock 22 Gen4 is manufactured in the Smyrna Georgia USA facility
