I have been recording the G-Forces while shooting handguns. Understand that these values are from my Apple Watch which is on my arm, it is not attached to the firearm. So, the way I lock my wrists and elbows, the tightness of the watch band, and many other things will influence the results.
Let's start with my friends GSG 1911 in 22LR.
The firearm was fired 10 times. The maximum magnitude of the g-force vector is 5.18, the axis that recorded the most force was the Z axis at 4.64.
This is a CZ 85B.
5 shots, max g-force magnitude was 6.51.
This is a SpringField 1911 in 9mm.
5 shots, max g-force magnitude was 7.85.
I am not sure how useful this information is, but I found it interesting.
