GLOCK 30 SF: THE GOLD STANDARD FOR COMPACT 45's?!?

About this video

Colion reviews the Glock 30 SF chambered in .45 ACP, focusing on its design, ergonomics, and suitability for concealed carry. He emphasizes that the SF (Short Frame) model offers improved grip ergonomics compared to the standard Glock 30, making it more comfortable to hold and shoot. Colion argues this gun excels as a dual-purpose firearm, offering 10+1 rounds of .45 ACP in a compact package that can serve both concealed carry and home defense roles.

Key takeaways

  • Colion explains that the SF frame reduces grip circumference compared to the standard Glock 30, providing better hand fit and trigger reach without the overly thick feel of earlier models
  • According to Colion, the Glock 30 SF offers exceptional capacity (10+1 rounds of .45 ACP) in a compact size comparable to the Glock 26, outperforming many subcompact 1911s that only hold 7 rounds
  • Colion describes the gun as a versatile dual-purpose platform that accepts full-size Glock 21 magazines for home defense while remaining concealable with flush-fit magazines for carry
