Perhaps one of the most versitile .45 ACPs in the world.
-This is for a Glock 30, not a 30SF. After 1000s of factory and reload ammo, it feeds everything I give it. I HAVE had: 2 light primer strikes with Winchester white box ammo, and several cases of FTF, mostly due to limp-wristing. If you want a limp wrist proof gun, get a beretta 92fs. All in all, I have to really try for a limp wristed failure.
Accuracy is great, however outstanding for a short barrelled Glock. I have produced rested groups at 25 yards that a quarter will cover. The grip is fat and cumbersome for some, but feels secure in my medium sized hands. Either you'll like the grip or you wont. Recoil is mild for such a small gun, and the sights fall right back on target without struggle.
Carrying this piece is good, but it's a little fat. This is my winter carry gun, as it prints when I wear t shirts. I have carried it year round and I just had to be a little more careful of what I wore.
All in all, 10+1 rounds of man or creature stopping .45ACP, in a small, fairly controllable, accurate and reliable package, extremely simple. I have heard of some issues with the Glock 30 SF (Short Frame) models but I can't attest to any.
