I REALLY LIKE MY 30,IT HAS SUFFICENT MAG CAPACITY WITHOUT BEING CUMBERSOME .IT'S EASY TO HANDLE AND VERY RELIABLE.

I have really enjoyed carrying this weapon as my off duty weapon of choice. It is easy to conceal, carries well and allows adequate ammunition for engagements if needed. Fits well in hands and fires very well placed shot groups even in rapid fire exercises. Currently carry this is weapon with a holsterless belt clip. Never had any misfires or jams in over 1500 rnds.

This weapon is the perfect balance of large caliber power, magazine capacity and concealability. I wear it in an Apache Ankle holster when wearing my duty uniform and when off duty. It is practically undetectable. It goes everywhere with me, on duty of off.

I worked for Smith and wesson, this products is very effective and managable, I do not own one, but if I had to carry, this would be my personal choice

Clearly there are many policelink members that have a lot more experience with firearms that I do, but my two cents is that this is one fine weapon. I find the size and weight to be perfect, and I like the way it looks.

I was a firearms instructor in the 1980's and was instrumental in switching my agency (Lake Worth PD, FL) from revolvers to the S&W 659/459 series. At the time, that was the best auto we could find. In the mid 90's, Glock emerged and after extensive study we switched our entire depatrment to the Glock .40 and .45 calibers. I chose this model, the 11 shot Glock 30 in .45 cal as my backup/off duty weapon and after I retired I still carry (with a permit!) this weapon. Having been active in police firearms research, policy and training for over 20 years I found this to be the absolute best balance of size, weight, concealability, reliability and power. Great weapon!

excellent pistol

serves as a great back up weapon

Always with me when I walk out the door. Mostly carry it IWB, sometimes in a paddle holster (court) and when ever I'm on shift as a 2nd under my armpit on a strap holster. The only jams I had with it were using the fullsize mags from my 21 and I attribute that to having my pinky put pressure on the mag. I shoot with the fullsize mags pinky forward to get away from it. No problems since.

GLOCK HAS DONE IT AGAIN GREAT UGREADE FROM THE 27

Exellent weapon for off duty use as well as plain clothes operations! You can use the same 13 round mags used for your full size Glock 21, as back up mags. If your mitts asre to small, send it out to RoBar for the grip reduction, they did an outstanding job on my 21 as well. Stay Safe!

I would love to get my hands on that

I rate this product well because it is full power, small, and low in weight. I am able to effective concealed carry it in hot Florida with shorts and sleeveless shirt. I am able to place 9 rounds fairly close at 30 feet. I had a S&W 357 mag before and switched to this because of the light weight. I do like the S&W 357 mag. Just too heavy.

I think that the Glock 30 is an amazing gun and I love it.

a glock customer is always satisfied.

This gun can be a officers best friend off duty

Anything with the name Glock will get the job done.

Small, a good capacity mag. Very accurate with minimal recoil. I used it for my duty weapon and carried it as an off duty weapon. Now that I'm retired it's the only thing I need.

Excellent duty or off duty carry weapon. The magazine capacity puts it up there with the full size semi-autos.

GLOCK 30

Accuracy - power - speed

The GLOCK 30 in the legendary .45 caliber offers excellent out-of-the- box precision paired with the ballistic quality of a genuine big-bore caliber. The smooth design and the simple
operation of the GLOCK pistol allow quick drawing of the pistol. Because of these advantages and especially because of its compact dimensions, the GLOCK 30 is the
first choice of plainclothes officers and protection personnel. This is the gun I carry off - duty to dinner, or to a night on the town. Nice very powerful sub-compact.

Great product!

Don't let it's size fool you. The Glock 30 is an excellent weapon, and is easy to conceal for those who work undercover, or wish to carry while off duty.

I am seriously thinking about making this my next purchase.

Another great product from Glock

Excellent weapon all around as most of us said already!! The kick back is smooth and easy to handle if you are a person of smaller size. I can wear a t-shirt and shorts and you wouldn't know I was carrying.

LOOKS EASY TO HANDLE

Nice, My new toy.

I also have this gun for my personal off duty weapon. Easy to conceal.

I really like my Glock 30. It is a great back up weapon on duty and an even better off duty weapon to carry. I also really like how reliable it is.

GLOCK CONTINUES ITS LEGACY, GREAT PRODUCT

small yet large. 45 cal fire power is unbeatable. with the magazine extension it fits my hand perfectly. shoots smooth and on target. conceals nicely. 11 round of 45 cal in the size it comes in you cant find a more affordable handgun.

Great off-duty weapon, compact, easy to conceal, the night sites are awesome. I carry this weapon every where I go! I am a firearms instuctor and recommend this weapon to anyone looking for a great off-duty.

This is great handgun. I have used it on duty for about 3 years now. I have some extendable magaz.ines that help with the small grip.It also has very little recoil.Great for qualifying

perfect balance between size and mag capacity and a .45 caliber roudn that will knock a man down its really good

OK, what's funny is that of all the various handguns I shoot IDPA with, this is by far my best scoring weapon. Magazine capacity is perfect, functioning is flawless and it fits my medium size hands very well. I shoot either COR-BON or Federal HS ammo entirely with this firearm.

As of right now my C & C is the XD-40 subcompact but am considering returning to the 45. I think the Glock 30 will be my choice.

I've carried one since 1998, Been a reliable back up weapon. Highly recommend it... I qualify with it every year and shoots easy and never any problems. I use regular sights as I feel at the range I will be using it I do not need night sights.

IT'S MORE SMALL FRAME AND EASY TO CARRY.

I love mine I have carried it off duty for several years. I qualify just as well with my 30 as I do my 21.

I love this handgun! I carry mine when I'm off duty, because it's lighter and smaller. The other cool thing about this handgun is that I can use my G21 mags in it. The other thing I like is that it comes with hi-cap mags. It's just like the 21 but smaller. I would recommend this to anybody who is considering getting an off duty handgun because this is THE pistol to have.

I have this gun and I love it.
It is very accurate.

Proud NEW owner of a Gock 30. Great back up weapon. I also like that you can use the magazine from a Glock 21. Powerful punch, accurate and fits my hand great.

First gun i ever fired.... love at first site....

this is the first gun i shoot with my honey, i didnt do well at first cause i tho it was heavy and understood the realness to it but now it rocks

sincei have smallhandsthe is the best gun i have shot!!

WELL, ITS NO SECRET THAT I LOVE MY GLOCKS. I CARRY THIS MODEL EVERYDAY AND HAVE NOT HAD ANY PROBLEMS WITH IT. SINCE I CARRY A GLOCK 21 IN MY SWAT GEAR, ALL OF THE MAGS WILL FIT IN MY GLOCK 30. I DONT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT EXTRA MAGS FOR EACH WEAPON. PLUS, THE .45 IS SUCH A PROVEN ROUND I WOULDN'T CARRY ANYTHING ELSE.

With the Glock I found reliability, quick response getting on the sights (when I use them) perfect size for carry and the punch to get the job done. Carried Glocks back in Trenton with no problems whatsoever!

Of the two Glocks I own and the one issued, this is my favorite. It's small accurate and easy to handle. I was surprised at how little recoil there was in such a small .45 pistol. Even with larger hands, I find it easy to hold onto. My preferred back-up/off duty weapon carried in a serpa paddle back haloster.

This is a smooth firing weapon, it fits my grip better than some of the other models and it doesn't have that great a recoil. One of my favorites.

KOOL SHORT AND EASY TO HANDLE

Actually looking into one for off duty cary.

I'm not a big 45cal fan, but if it's made by glock, it's got to be good

i'm wanting to purchase a new hand gun and looked at this model. Maybe someone could give me some insight as to if this would be one of the better ones to get. I read alot about this one and several others (Ruger, S&W, 9mm's) and can't make up my mind.Help please.....

Purchased this gun for off duty use. Fits perfect in my hands and I love it.

Only bad thing about glocks is the plastic drive spring rod, i would also like to see an abi mag relase

I think the Glock 30 is a great firearm.

This will be great for backup or off duty.

awesome back up weapon . i have not had any problems !!!

I bought one of the first ones that came out. Awesome weapon. The new model 30 has a thinner grip and shorter length. May be a better set up for smaller hands. Either way, if you carry a model 21 for duty, the 30 should be your choice for back up because your duty mags will fit your back up weapon.

my little baby- i love this little guy

i like who it looks it looks real nice

this is a real good gun and it is the best hand gun out there

This little gun is my favorite out of my glocks small packs a punch with less kick than my GLOCK22

good product handles great in all types of weather

Picked up my G30 today. Took her to the range and OH MAN I fell in love. I'm a big bore kind of guy but have been carying the kel-tec P-11 for off duty and BUG. I got the itch for a small .45 and started looking at this gun. Same capacity as the P-11 and just a little bit bigger. Still small enough for an ankle.
I took her to the range and ran about 150 rounds through the gun. Shoots well, recoil is much less than I expected and she ate everything I fed her even those big old hollow points. This is my first Glock. If all Glocks are this good I'll probably end up with the whole set of tupperware.

I would not leave home without it. I was issued a Glock 22 and I hated Glocks. Then I tried one of my buddy's Glock 30 and I was a Glock lover again. Add a light to it and you are ready for anything.

There's a funny saying about handguns and what type should be carried that is boasted by the Marines. It's something like the calibre of the gun should start with nothing less than a 4. I carry this gun off duty and as a back-up. We are issued the 21's. The double stack mags from the 21 fit in the 30. This is a great gun for a larger guy with big hands. It might be too hard to really conceal on someone with a slight frame. The smaller compact 27 and 26 are too tiny. I really loves Glocks its shame they dont make rifles and other firearms. You just can't beat Combat Tupperware.

Great gun with a handful of power. I replaced my Glock 27 with this. I just couldn't shoot well with the little 27. Too small for my hands. In my opinion I think my Glock 30 shoots better than my friends Kimber of equal size. I carry it as a BUG on a body armor holster with no probs and I carry it EVERYWHERE as a OD gun. I am a big guy 6'1 240lbs and I have no probs concealing it with a long shirt. Check it out.

Carry as my backup weapon and carry it concealed off duty. Great gun, like the fact that the mags for my Glock 21 interchange.

I love this Gun! it is a great gun for concealment. I have an ankle holester for it, but it is a little heavy for wearing it there unless i have my boots on. Its is very comfortable to shoot just like its big brother the glock 21.

Just got this one about a month ago and for a .45 of this size, the recoil is minimal. Way to go Glock. Once the Sheriff's Office calls me to pick up my concealed permit, this is gonna be with me.

the glock 30 is a great weapon. can be conceal very easy. with 12 rounds. it a well rounded weapean. I've own one for the past 3 yrs. never a miss fire.

Great weapon very dependable and fun to shoot.

Very fun to shoot small enough to wear off duty

Great backup weapon Recently purchased a 30 SF, Love it!!!

If you carry a Glock 21 on duty, the Glock 30 is great for off duty carry. You know you have 11 rounds of .45 there if you need them. There's nothing more comforting than that!

It's a Glock.

I love this weapon. Handles very well

Outstanding sidearm! Very accurate for a small barrel .45 Cal. Will make a great off duty or on duty (if you assignment allows) weapon. Easy, as all Glocks are, to clean.

My glock 30 is the best gun ever. I am more secure with this gun than any other I have ever fired. I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have been Carrying this weapon for the past 2 yrs. Great weapon with Lots of take down power behind it, One issue I encountered was the Guide rod was plastic and it was bowing in the middle from the spring pressure between the 2 springs, so I replaced it with a Stainless steel replacement, it is slightly heavier but still manageable.

Bought this one for concealed carry. Smaller frame makes it easier to conceal, big punch in a small package.

I just bought this one for my own protection and enjoyed shooting it once I got to the range. Just like the Glocks I have for work, easy as pie to shoot and clean.

Easy to conceal and I can take it everywhere...I can use an IWB or just put it in a coat pocket and you wouldnt know it. I love the Glock 30!

it's a glock

Just bought this fine weapon. Shoots wonderfully have not had any problems and the recoil well a 5 year old could shot it. Over all a good choice.

Well constructed as all Glock handguns are but not as comforatble in the hand as a 1911 style pistol.

Its a compact Glock that shoots .45, five stars, enough said.

great, reliable pistol. recommend grip extensions

It's a glock, enough said. Rugged, compact, and packing that .45 ACP! I have the SF (Slim Frame) version and it fits my hands perfectly fine. Best thing of all the mag holds 10 rounds! If you can't get em with 10, just beat em with the barrel! WIth the mags it comes with it allows all fingers to grip onto it. I love my Glocks.

I live in Western Pa and have a ccw and i carry my 30 with me everywhere
Like American express don't leave home with out it.

This is a great item for learning. I

Love going to the range with this one on a stressful day and its great for my small hands.

Excellent fit, can be easily customized by Robar or others if too large for your hand...Very easy to clean, and maintain, eats everything, never a jam in over 2500 rounds so far...many upgrades available if you want to mess with the trigger...some drop in...easy to buy cheap replacement barrels too

Weapon requires little maintance, shoots greaqt, handles all magazines designed for 45 caliber. Have never had a misfire. Carry the weapon on and off duty.

use this as my off duty and duty backup ( wear on ankle). ankle was hard to getr used to for the first week but after that its not noticeable...love this and never leave home without it!!! EVER!

I switched from the glock 27 to the 30 when our department switched to the Glock 21SF, it was a great switch. Being able to use the full size mags in the 30 is a bonus. Even with the step up in size, I can still carry the 30 off duty and as a back up on duty and not feel much of a different or have any problems concealing it. Great gun, shoots very well and with less recoil then you expect.

Love it. Easy to shoot, holds 10+1 and has low felt recoil.

Great gun

With a good holster like Milt Sparks you can't beat it.
I have nothing to add to the other comments.

I have not used the 30 but it says Glock on it so nothing futher is needed.
