Short answer is, you will NOT feel a significant difference in recoil / muzzle flip between the standard and the PC version. Not enough to make a difference in a defensive situation IMO.
I did an unscientific comparison between the two and wrote about it here.

As far as shooting a ported gun from retention. Take a look at this video. Starts at about 2:00 in.
