After being a fan of .357 Sig and carrying it for years I have said good by to the caliber. Got rid of my 32 and 33 and now my G30 has taken over EDC. Hope this was a good decision..

i would say you made the right decision way too late.....JMHO

if youre not comfortable with carrying a 45 then dont, im not a fan 40/357 sig, but holes in vital organs is what kills people. around here at least 357 sig is stupid hard to come by, 45/9 are everywhere

I like my 30 and its a Gen4.. Just hate the weight but nothing I can't get use to. Same in my area .357 Sig is hard to find and expensive. I've always wanted to pick up a 9mm so no time like the present. Seriously looking at a Gen4 19

Sold all my Sig Sauer P220 pistols and got a Glock 30 gen 3 years ago.  Never looked back and the Glock 30 is one of my favorite pistols to shoot.  You did the right choice.

When you swith to 9 and get a 19, then you'll be havin' a good day!

I did exactly what you need to do......

Got the trio!


Retired the G32 after 10 years riding my side.

If glock would make a 30 frame that was full length grip with flush fit 10 round mags (instead of that stupid grip extension on the magazine) and the 30S slide the entire world would be having a great day. We got the single stack 9 so a guy can dream

I am still dreaming for a G19 with a rounded nosed slide, and an ambi-lever mag release on a Gen4 design.

Good on you for dumping .357, switching to a 19 would've been the best decision though. The 19 does everything. The only area it lacks is having a long sight radius for competitions.

Never had an issue using my 19 vs 34.  Honestly I do not see much difference in how I shoot with my 19 vs 17 vs 34.  Fundamentals are far more important than sight radius and I have seen some guys come out with a G19 and rule the day.

Wouldn't sweat it at all. The G30 is likely my favorite followed by the 42.

My G30 is my most accurate Glock but I won't be getting rid of my .357 sig anytime soon....costs me less to reload for that than my .45 and it's a great little round.  It's a beast when it comes to it's energy for a 9mm projectile

I saw a big difference when it came to competition. Target shooting there isn't any difference but when you're being timed the fundamentals can get sloppy and the extra sight radius makes a difference.

The 357 sig is a freight train of a round ballistics wise but you made the right choice.  

I will be switching to 9mm soon for carry except duty use where I am policy bound to .40.

I love my G30 its my EDC 90% of the time & when I'm not carying it it very close in my go bag.

Those that carry the 30 for EDC what holster are you all using? I'm currently using a Safariland 6378 ALS.. But I feel I need something a little thinner that rides closer to the body for conceal carry OWB.

I won't give up my 33. Plenty of ammo online for a decent price
I did get a 29 sf for winter and fishing trips (reloading 10mm helps)

You said OWB but the Kingtuck is really comfortable for an IWB and easy to take on and off without having to take your belt off.

I carry my 30 in a DeSantis speed scabbard. Very comfortable
