I’ve never owned a Glock, so I have no first hand experience...and I suppose this could be a problem with any of the lightweight carry pistols out there....but this seems like a big red flag.

I’ve seen it happen to people on the range...again I don’t know if its because more people own Glocks...or because they are more likely to jam.

I understand its an operator error thing...but in a world with lots of choices for high quality pistols, one almost searches out a differentiating factor...and this seems to be one. I wonder if the people at Glock are trying to make this less likely - hotter ammo? Weaker Spring? Grip extension?

You can use for example a Glock 19. The proportions are ideal for a female but they do like to jump around. Most shooters would be better served by canting/angling the elbows out some so the muzzle doesn’t pop up so much causing wrist deflection. That allows more force straight down the arms taking limp wristing out of the mix.
