An Overview of the Glock 30

Posted by Ghost Inc on

One of the most popular handgun brands on the market is Glock. When it comes to a Glock pistol, there is simply nothing like it. Glock pistols are easy to maintain, easy to fire, and simple even for beginners to use. At the same time, dozens of Glock pistols have been released to the world. Therefore, some people might have trouble figuring out exactly which Glock pistol they would like to use. That is where this overview can be helpful. One of the most popular Glock models on the market today is the Glock 30. There are a few key points that everyone should know about the Glock 30 and its features.

What Is the Glock 30?

One of the most popular handguns in the world, the Glock 30 has a strong reputation for its ease of use and durability. Furthermore, the Glock 30 is even sponsored by the NYPD. One of the common comparisons to the Glock 30 is the Glock 17. The Glock 17 is known for using a 9 mm round and is a staple of many law enforcement organizations; however, the Glock 30 has recently become more popular. A 9 mm round from a Glock 17 might not be enough when it comes to stopping someone, particularly if the individual is on drugs or otherwise acting crazily.

Therefore, the Glock 30 is often seen as a better option. The Glock 30 fires a .45 auto round, which is enough to stop just about anyone in their tracks. Therefore, many people have come to trust the Glock 30 more than the Glock 17 both in law enforcement and in the army.

Key Specifications of the Glock 30 Include:

  • The gun weighs about 1.5 pounds unloaded and 2.1 pounds loaded.
  • The gun is 4.8 inches tall.
  • The Glock 30 has a barrel length of 3.7 inches.
  • The Glock 30 fires a .45 auto round
  • The magazine capacity of the Glock 30 can either be 9, 10, or 13 rounds.

Because the Glock 30 is so reliable, it has become popular in a relatively short period of time. At the same time, it is still a good idea to take a closer look at the Glock 30’s pros and cons.

The Benefits and Drawbacks of the Glock 30

When it comes to the Glock 30, some of the key benefits include:
