The GLOCK 41 Gen4 is a pistol chambered in 45 Auto that was developed to provide optimal weight distribution and balance while also maximizing the sight radius. The longer barrel and slide contribute to a reduction in muzzle flip as well as felt recoil, while the longer sight radius contributes to improved accuracy. It is able to rapidly change its grip to accommodate any hand size thanks to the Modular Back Strap technology that it utilizes. Because the magazine catch can be switched around, it is suitable for both left-handed and right-handed shooters.
