Glock model 30 - good/bad??

[JohnR]

I've never heard a bad word about any Glock, especially the G30, other than the grip might not be for everybody. I appreciate Glocks, but every time I hold a G30 I just shake my head and hand it back to its owner. It's like holding a club in my hand.

But ask any Glock fan and they'll say if it's not a Glock it's crap.

That isn't the first time I've seen her post things that make me go Mmmmmm

It does seem like -
* The gen 4 nines, sporadically, are having problems (extractor maybe? and with 115 gr ammo?)
* Only some of the most popular models are currently being produced in gen4
* I think Gen 3s may still be being produced

My gen3 EXO G27 was test fired 3/2011

It's from hanging around with Jocko. All his fault. Bad influence.

You aren't thinking of Kardashianing me and starting your own reality show are ya?

Of course not, dear. I like you for your dirty mind. And that manly mustache!

I like my 30sf ........ very accurate,easy to shoot.

Between 500-1000 rounds through it with no malfunctions.

Carry in a Glock sport/combat slide ....... need to dress around it.



Mostly I carry a PM9 in a pocket holster.

That's a huge relief.

I can't believe she said that! Can anyone believe she said that?

I don't really know Melissa, so I would probably be out of line - otherwise I would also say "I can't believe she said that!"
Oops... maybe I just said that.

[deanp1964]

great feedback, thanks. Sounds like I better hold a 36 and a 30 before I do anything. Truthfully, I think my PM45 is on the verge of greatness anyways. If that happens, that's probably all the compact 45 I'll need!

[JohnR]

... that's probably all the compact 45 I'll need!

There are a lot of people who insist that unless you walk around with ten or more rounds on board and two spare mags you are unprepared. I guess revolver fans disagree. Whether six or seven rounds is "enough" is something only you can answer, based on your most likely worst case scenario and your shooting skills under stress. For me, a PM45 is "enough" unless I go to certain places. Even then it's probably enough, but more ammo is reassuring (or pop in an extended mag!)

[Bawanna]

Yeah, I think too much ammo is just plain paranoia. I'm getting one of those mag holders the Garretts make. Spring loaded affair that holds 7 1911 mags. I figure with that plus the Cbob on the hip and the PM45 on the ankle I can fight my way to my rifle.

Lets see that's 56 in the mag pouch, 8+1 in the Cbob and 6 in the PM45. Yeah, that oughta get the job done.
56? I might need suspenders and heavier wheelchair springs on that side.
