The replies so far seem to demonstrate that recoil perception varies from individual from individual. The most common perception - with which I agree - is that the .40 is more of a snap or pop than the push of the .45, and that .45 is more comfortable, but you can see that it not a universally held opinion. I personally don't care for the .40, but lots of people say they don't mind it, and I say good for them - ain't it great we have choices?
