Angie, I'm guessing that if you don't like the recoil of the G30 (which has a telescoping recoil spring that slows the slide velocity pretty well toward the end of its travel) you will not like a .40 Glock.
The new recoil spring system on the Gen 4 Glocks may/will probably change the recoil impulse on the .40s. I haven't tried one in .40 yet.
And as has been said, "felt" recoil is somewhat subjective. It should be too hard to find a .40 to try.
