WTT Glock 30 for XD-45 or M&P 45 **Traded**

[SeventhSon]

I thought I would put this out there and see if anyone would be interested. I have a great condition Glock 30 (.45 ACP) that I was thinking about trading for an XD-45 or an M&P 45. I'm really into 1911's and the grip angle of the Glock is throwing me off just a bit. Nothing too bad, but I use to own an XD-40 and liked the grip angle. I'm really looking for a compact or sub-compact XD or compact M&P in .45 ACP. Anyone want to trade?

I've replaced the factory front sight with a Trijicon sight. Day glow orange with a green night-sight center. VERY easy to see, day or night. I also have 11 mags (six 13 round 21 mags and five 10 round 30 mags. Some with the pinkie extension and some without). I have a buddy with a 30 as well, so if you dont have extra mags, it's cool as I'm sure he would buy them off me if you dont want to. Let me know. I also have a Serpa G-30 holster (I think) and a Glock sport holster that I can throw in if you have a holster for trade.

Have you tried out an M&P?

 

[SeventhSon]

I've heard very good things about the M&P but have never shot one. That might be an option as well. Thanks!!!

Seabeevet, I have both and you should be very happy with EITHER!!

Well I don't have the compact XD 45, but I do have the tactical model with 8 13 round mags. Let me know if you are interested.

If it wasnt for the fact that I was looking for another carry gun, I would jump on it. The tactical is a little too big for what I want it for. Thanks though!

Might have to take a look here. I have a M&P Compact .45 with 5 mags. I just don't know if I want to trade it... but I do love Glocks....

How does the 30 compare in size to say a 26 or a 36?

Damnit.

I use to own a 36 but didnt like the way it pinched my pinkie every time I shot it. That, and the limited rounds it carried. The 30 is slightly wider than the 36 but not too noticeable (for me at least). I really do LOVE the 30, but I'm just use to a different grip angle.

The G30 is comparable to a G19 with a thicker receiver and slide. It is actually between a G26 and a G19 in height and length.

Any interest in selling it? I dont have a XD but if you like 1911's I have a Kimber Eclipse with very little rounds down it I'm about to sell.

Seabeevet, I feel your pain, man. I have Glocks as well as other brand pistols, and the grip angle does mess up my POA when first transitioning between G's and others. I also own the XD45 Tac, and thru 4500 rds, it has been 100%. No malfunctions whatsoever. I think you will really like a XD45c. Even the 4" service model would be CCW'able with a good belt and holster.

The M&P 45 is a nice gun with good ergonomics, but I haven't gotten a chance to shoot one yet. A bit over complicated IMO, but nice nonetheless.

Good luck, I think your G30 should go quickly.

BTW, they don't make a sub-compact XD45.

The XD45 is made in 4 sizes; full grip and compact grip with 4" barrel (Service model) or 5" barrel (Tactical model).

Come on.....you know you want it.....

I have two 1911's and LOVE the platform, but was looking for a .45 that was a little lighter weight.

The XD45 is made in 4 sizes; full grip and compact grip with 4" barrel (Service model) or 5" barrel (Tactical model).

In a perfect world, I would love the 5" barrel with the compact grip. Best of all worlds for concealed carry.

The XD45c's aren't what I call light, they are 29oz for 4" and 31oz for 5". That's without extended grip or ammo.

True, but when you consider that I also carry a stainless steel Dan Wesson CBOB sometimes, every little bit helps, LOL.

 

[homeslice]

I'm interested. PM replied.

 

[PAPACHUCK]

I understand, some times I carry my XD45 Tac loaded with 14x230gr big fat boys! That works out to about 43-44 ozs.
