as clumsy as it feels in the hand, that all goes away when shooting it. this is the first out of the box .45 that i can hit to point of aim without adjusting the sights. i compared an amt hardballer to it and what a difference. the hardballer had a nice trigger but had considerable more felt recoil, and jammed often. the glock has a typical glock trigger, but i could shoot it better, and naturally, no jams. i have an hk uspc that is a fine weapon, but i can shoot the glock better. can anybody give me an idea of an honest price to ask for a like n.i.b. hk uspc in .45?

you are the 5th person i know to trade in their hk for a glock 30. I love mine. Excellent shooter for a PD gun.

When Ohio gets concealed carry, that's what I'll carry.

I shoot it well, the sights are easy to see, and I actually like the trigger.

I have 2 and love them both.
I actually bought something else and took it back because I was worried that the different
manual of arms would most likely get me killed.

That when I got my second 30.
I could shoot it in the dark with my eyes closed and 1 hand tied behind my back if I had to. [;)]

Yes the grip is awkward but that damn little gun eats every ammo profile I have ever tried.
Not so for my 1911. Which only likes hardball.

And it has been utterly reliable since new.

In width it really is no thicker that the 1911 and considerable shorter in length.
Side by side.
Much better for concealment for me anyway.

I bought a 30 as my first Glock. Liked it so much I had to buy other Glocks to see if they all were that sweet.[;)] I like my 19 almost as much as the 30.

I'd like to see Glock make a full size .45 in a single stack.

Enjoy your new Glock!

The first gun I owned was a SW Sigma 40cal and then I saw the light and bought a Glock 30. The best of the best and the best to the rest...

I too was one of those "I hate those POS tupperware Glocks" guys until I shot a buddy's 30. It's now my main carry piece.

I've got a Glock 30 on order, but I have a friend who is interested in the HK. Do you have a price yet. When you get a price let me know.

I've had my Glock 30 now for a little over 3 yrs now with over 5000rds through it and it's still my carry weapon.

Although I'm a better shot with the 1911A1...and even better with the S&W .357 Magnum, the G 30 is just a better carry gun for me.

Only thing I've done to it was to replace the sights with the TriluxH3 Night Sights. Did the same for my wifes G 27 but also added a extended slide release because she doesn't have a strong thumb to release it.
