Porting is most commonly used on shotguns, where recoil makes rapid firing difficult. Indeed, even single shots of magnum strength loads alone are uncomfortable for all but the most seasoned shooters. GLOCK has porting as an option on most of its pistols. Porting has obvious advantages for faster follow-up shots, especially for 3 - round burst operation. In most instances, porting does nothing to enhance the accuracy of follow-up shots but rather make larger calibers more bearable. Firing at night with a ported barrel usually decreases the shooter's night vision. The muzzle flash is redirected through the ported barrel upward into the shooter's face. Most law enforcement agencies prohibit their officer's from carrying a weapon with a ported barrel. |
