I'll give a review, with backstory.
I was looking for something new, to replace the 1911 that I had sold. I think it was in the late 90's. I wanted something in .45ACP, since I already had everything to reload for it.
Luckily for me my friend owned a gun store with an attached indoor range, and rented pistols to shoot on the range, so I had the ability to try different ones out first to see if they fit me.
The Glocks were the last ones that I tried ( I had a little anti-Glock in me ). The 21 was too big for me, so when my friend got the new 30 in, I just figured that I would try it, but I was still soured by how the grip felt on the 21.
I had also tried a HK USP compact, and was not impressed, so I was not expecting much from the smaller 30.
Well, I was MORE then impressed by how well it performed, and how well it fit me, which had alot to do with it's performance.
I had won a little Taurus .38, in a Taurus match the month before, so I traded it in on the 30.
So, basically, I have had mine for 14? years.
Now, there are things that I have changed that I didn't like.
1 : I changed the sights to Novak Carry Sights. ( lower profile, and STEEL. I was worried about the durability of the PLASTIC sights. )
2 : I wasn't crazy about the slide release button on the Glocks ( 1911 guy likes extended ) so I replaced the stock one with an extended one.
3 : I later replaced the trigger with an aluminum trigger ( less sloppy and more positive feel, again 1911 guy. )
4 : This one was just an I'll try it just to see how I like it. I bought a set adhesive grip patches that feel like cloth so when you sweat your not holding greasy plastic. They're still on it today. ( lived along the Mississippi...huuuummmmiiiid.)
5 : I replaced the magazine caps with Pierce finger grip caps, so that I had a more positive grip on the pistol. ( personal thing here, the stock ones may be just fine for you.)
I have placed in the top 3 in Glock only matches with it twice with WWB ammo. I was a competetive shooter then, so this is not going to result for everyone.
In the 10+ whatever years that I have owned it, it has never had a single failure of any kind, with anything that I have tried in it as far as different ammo, even my hand loads. It hasn't had any broken parts. And it still could out shoot me. Mine really likes 230 Remington Golden Sabers, as far as accuracy,so that's what I keep it loaded with for carry or at home.
I fully expect that it will still be serving faithfully long after I'm gone.
Was that a decent review of the Glock 30 ?
