    I absolutely love my Glock 30S. Perfect fit to my hand, nice compact size, amazing accuracy, and .45 ass kickin power. What wouldn't like that? It is hands down my favorite out of my modest 9 handgun collection. The grip is chunky, but that makes it a very enjoyable gun to target shoot with, even using +P ammunition. I love also that it accepts G-21 13 rd. mags that are great for backups.

    I've carred a 30S for 3 years IWB CrossBreed holster. No FFE or reliability issues. None. Compact
    length, Slim Slide and 10 round capacity - that's why LAPD special units and many other LE's order them so often that Glock made it a catalog item. I rented a Glock 36 from RangeUSA for one hour and had several FFE issues during a 100 round session.

    My Glock 23, .40 S&W has a slimmer grip and is more comfortable in the hand, but I love my 30S in spite of the overly thick grip for my hand, at least one handed. With a two handed grip, which I always try to use, I can't help but wonder if the thicker grip helps mitigate recoil more.
    Great video, thank you!

    Hey Sootch, good review. The Glock 36 is my daily carry. I've never had a malfunction when using factory ammo. However, it is very picky with my reloads, and has given me trouble with those. I've been trying to experiment to fix that problem.
    Besides that, it's accurate as hell, feels great in the hand and is very comfortable to carry.

    I'm picking up my new Glock 26 Friday, now you've got me thinking maybe I should have gone w/a G36 instead. A friend is hardcore a .45 guy so his home defense pistol is a G21 w/Tac light, his EDC is a G36, and he's got 2-3 1911s, including a Wilson Combat polymer frame and stainless Colt Commander. Which I'm trying to get him to leave me in his will. Great vid Sootch, as always.

  • @MrHardPressed
    @MrHardPressed 13 років тому +1

    Sootch, I was at a gunshow this past weekend and was comparing the 30 with the 30SF. The feel of the 36 was "narrow" and for the extra ammo I was interested in the full/rounded grip. SO I compared the 30 with the 30 SF. Personally, I have small hands and thought the 30SF was my choice. I think it would be interesting to take a piece of string and measure the circumference of each grip to distinguish the actual difference.

    I have the G30 and one reason that I can not 'pull the trigger' on a 1911 purchase is the G30's superior magazine capacity on what, I think, is a better design. I have lusted after a high end 1911 for most of my teen and adult life but it is hard to justify when I have a G30 and when I could purchase a G30, G36, and G21 for the same price as a tricked out 1911. Thanks for the vid Sooch...Excellent as always.

  • @GunsHarleysUSA
    @GunsHarleysUSA 13 років тому

    Good video as always, I just wanted to say I just sold my G-36, the reason is that it jamed about every other round....but it was not the fault of the gun. I have large hands and for some reason I could not grip the slim frame correctly, I would have to put a death grip on the 36 to get it to work and fuction like it should, but I don't have this problem with any other Glock, and I have 10 Glocks in all from the G-20 on down to the Baby G-26. Keep safe brother.

  • @Th3Kiddd1
    @Th3Kiddd1 13 років тому

    @Mooselola - You're right. The SF models are 3mm shortner from the backstrap to the frontstrap. That's the only difference. The "hump" on the backstrap is just a bit smaller, but can feel like a lot to some. The best way to compare an SF and a non-SF is to turn them upside down and compare the size of the openings on the bottom of the backstraps. You can see the difference.

    @miophx8283 8 років тому

    Sootch, check the weight specs you quoted with the Glock website. There is a half ounce difference between these guns when unloaded. I really can't decide between the two, at this point. I was considering the small xds because online prices have dropped so darn low as of July, 2016. I saw once price from a very reputable , online gun store for under 400.00 for the XDS! I''m still not jumping at it though. I had that grip checking. It's too Tactical Teddy looking for me.

  • @TheJadeStorm87

    I've been debating on a new .45, and since I've always wanted a 26 for CC, this fits the ticket PERFECTLY! The 36 I think is even better of an option with the extended magazine (+2). I think 8 rounds of .45 is enough to handle any problem. Good video sir! I have no issue with the finger grooves like most people because I have long 'piano' fingers.
