Glock 30: "Pocket Freight Train" by Nutnfancy

Описание: The Glock 30 is a chunk of a pistol but it packs a wallop...namely 11 rounds of .45 ACP. That's a lot of defensive lead in such a small package. Many still choose the .45 ACP chambering for their defensive pistol and it does perform well, especially with quality +P loads. But expect more weight, bulk, cost, and recoil with the .45 ACP. If you're ready for all of THAT then considering the sub-compact, double-stack Glock 30 as a carry option makes a lot of sense. It inherits all of the good Glock attributes that I've spoken to before in other vids: great reliability, accuracy, durability, good ergos, controls placement, good firepower options (takes 13 rd Glock 21 mags too), good sights, good value, proven track record, LOTS of accessories, simple fieldstrip and maintenance. Downsides on the Glock 30 are few but will include its 1.27" thick slide (makes ankle and maybe belly band carry tough) and the inherent , more rakish Glock grip angle. But that's about it. When compared against many 1911 offerings, the G30 will win in firepower and weight comparisons but will lose the thickness battle, the all-important carry dimension. Choosing a good carry option will help mitigate this Glock's thickness. These might include a quality inside-the-waistband holster, shoulder holster, and/or some fannypack options. Also at just 25.5 oz this powerhouse won't weigh you down especially for the stopping power offered. It is a powerful defensive option. /////////////Nutnfancy Likeability Scale: 7 of 10
