The Glock 30 packs a lot of punch in a small package. The 10 plus 1 is suitable for EDC and I feel vary comfortable with it. It is a bit lager in width than the EDC favorite, Glock 19, but is still easy to tote around everyday. The Glock 30 was my first handgun and I do not regret it one bit. If you are looking for an affordable, reliable .45 for EDC, then the Glock 30 is what you need.
