Recently I had the chance to review a G30S and believe it could possibly be the best Glock to date. If you like the G30, which I always have, it is all that but a little more compact. Double Tap 185 gr Nosler JHP: 1.809"; 5-rounds fired from a bench at 50'. I was worried that the slender...

Whether because of the 'Ribber' grip or the mild .44spl round it was very controllable. The fixed sight had POI below POA at 50...
