No you can not interchange them. The hole beneath the muzzle is larger on the Gen4 to accomodate the larger RSA.

Glock Recoil Spring Assembly Question.
Hello All,
I posted this question on the general firearms section, but noticed that it is more appropriate here. Sorry!
I am new to the forum, but have actually come here many times to read and learned from you guys. I saw the iPhone app and decided to join.
Anyway, here is the question.
Can you use the recoil spring assembly for a Glock Gen 4 on a Gen 3 Glock?
I have a few Glocks but I haven't seen the Gen 4 yet, and I am wondering if the recoil system can be used from one to the other.
Thanks!
I am looking forward to a wonderful time here.

Thanks for your reply. I haven't seen the Gen 4, but I heard they are pretty smooth due to the new RSA.
No that it is a problem, but I am always open to make my guns better. Who doesn't right?
Thanks again!

You can use a Gen 3 in a Gen 4 if you use an adapter "washer".
That's why I have my business. To help Glock shooters have an even more enjoyable experience. I love the Gen4's and prefer them over the Gen 3 Glocks.
Interesting! Glocks are the best, there are so many accessories and modifications they take.chuckds said:You can use a Gen 3 in a Gen 4 if you use an adapter "washer".
Thanks. I was looking the other way around, a Gen 4 RSA on a Gen 3 or something similar.
Thanks!

I guess I have to try the Gen 4s. ;-)
