The force could be the same, but the springs different. For a full sized, the more massive slide and barrel as well as the gentle slope of Hooke's Law for a longer spring, would combine to allow the full sized to be tuned for hotter ammo with the same peak force when the slide is pulled back. If you are still reading this you are a nerd.

The word 'forum" does not mean "not criticizing books."
"Ad hominem fallacy" is not the same as point by point criticism of books. If you bought the book, and believe it all, it may FEEL like an ad hominem attack, but you might strive to accept other points of view may exist.
Are we a nation of competing ideas, or a nation of forced conformity of thought?
