Great write up! I agree with everything you said about the new Gen4 19. Just last night I cleaned mine after my 200 round range trip and dropped in a Scherer 3.5 connector. It is a nice clean break with out so much pressure needed like in the stock config. I have only dry fired it with this set up. I will report back hopefully next Friday with my actual impressions of that connector in there while shooting live.
Take care!

I thought I read somewhere that the gen 4 guns are a little slimmer. Is that the case?

The frames are shorter from finger groove to back strap, they are not slimmer from side to side.
Great to hear the G19 Gen4's are doing great. I was kinda waiting for a bunch of folks t jump on these like the 17's, and then for it to blow up on the interweb machines. Everything I have read sounds good so far.
I'm sure it's still too soon, but...
Anyone know if the Gen4 G19 utilizes the new recoil spring that is rumored to replace the initial Gen4 G17 springs that had issues with the weaker range fodder?

The "2" is what the Gen4 G17 owners started using to solved the issues with originial spring.
Now we see a "3" spring coming in the G19. Personally I'd like to see what spring comes in the Gen4 G23 and run that one in the new G19. I'll bet that puppy shoots flat as hell.
Has anybody shot any drills gen 3 v gen 4 side by side with a timer to validate the view that the gen 4 guns are faster and easier to shoot?
Thanks in advance
