Description
Glock 22 Gen. 4 .40 S&W Serial#RFE316
The Glock 22 Gen4 takes the proven Glock formula — a tough polymer frame, simple Safe Action® trigger system, and a reliable steel slide — and adds the Gen4 refinements shooters appreciate: interchangeable backstraps for customizable grip fit, a rough textured frame (RTF) for improved purchase, and a dual recoil spring assembly for reduced felt recoil and longer spring life. Chambered in .40 S&W, the G22 delivers a balance of stopping power and controllability in a full-size platform with a comfortable grip and sight radius that helps with accuracy under stress.
This model is built for high round counts and hard use: corrosion-resistant slide finish, easy field-stripping without tools, and a wide aftermarket parts/support ecosystem. Whether used by law enforcement, security professionals, or private owners seeking a reliable service-sized pistol for range and protection, the Glock 22 Gen4 is a rugged, no-nonsense choice.
