Hello everyone,

 

I just bought my first handgun, a glock 30 sf. I wanted it for some fun at the range and of course for home defense. After a lot of research I found that the glock 30SF should be ideal for what I'm looking for. Good stopping power with the .45 ACP, decent mag size with ten and small enough that (God forbid) my wife ever had to use it in my absence, her hands could get a good grip on it. Just wondering what others have and their reasons for those choices. Any input is appreciated.

 

Best regards,

MortgageMike

    Good to have you here, XD45 Tactical is hard to beat! But there are many, many fine choices.

    Welcome...waiting on my permit. At this point I'm waiting on my permit but have whittled my choices down to a Glock 22 or a s&w m&p .40. Still have to find somewhere that has the s&w for rent so I can shoot it for comparison.

    Holy Schneikes! If the sh*t hits the fan, I'm coming to your house.

    Anything that fits you well and that you are comfortable shooting is a good choice. For me that is a XD Tactical but many choose Glocks, M&Ps and 1911s. Welcome to the forum from the Jersey Shore.

     

    SJ_EAL, have you called Shore Shot to see if they have an M&P on their (extensive) rental board?

    I think I know you... Are you on NJ Hunter?

    Welcome! My fiance likes a steel-framed .357 loaded with .38+P rounds for HD, and she's very small.

    No, but I'm friends with another mortgage guy in Marlton, also named Mike. Might be him.
