The Glock 30 is a pistol manufactured by Glock. It is a small frame high caliber, sub-compact Glock based on the Glock 29 and fires the .45 ACP ammunition. It uses a modified Glock 29 frame, .45 ACP barrel, modified slide and magazine but these differences are quite minor and it does look identical to a Glock 29. It is a very popular self-defense and carry pistol in the United States, because .45 ACP is a very popular type of ammunition there. It has a 10 round magazine capacity as pictured, but can also accept 13 round magazines from the full-size Glock 21 as well as a flush-fit 9 round magazine for greater concealability.
