Justin Lewis Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 I was at my local gun shop and they talked me into the G29 over the G30. WHat is your take on it. He said load it up with www.doubletapammo.com and rock and roll. Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErikW Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 10mm has damned impressive ballistics if you can handle it. Factory ammo is incredibly expensive. I considered a G29 but its extra size and my confidence shooting Glocks of another caliber ultimately led me to get something else. I assume you want this primarily for concealed carry, not competition or informal target shooting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe D Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 I recall the two most unpleasant Glocks I have ever shot are the Glock 33 and 29. IMO if you want a carry gun there is no better than the Glock 23. The .40 is a proven fight stopper. 14 rounds of 180gr. Ranger Talons should be enough, if not throw the gun and run.

Nemo Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 I've never shot the G29 but the 20 (full size 10mm) was not as pleasant to shoot as the 21 (same size only in 45acp). If you like the size of the 29 then the 30 would be a good choice for you (that's my CCW gun). Or you can always try the 23 Joe D recommended. 1st Commandment: HAVE A GUN!

shred Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 Hmm.. I really like the 20 and the 29's not too bad. Won 2 or 3 more Glocks at GSSF matches with 'em. If you aren't going to reload, a .45 may be a better choice-- lots more options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davis Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 I love my G29. I find the hotter the load the easier it is to shoot. The slide seems to snap back and forth vs muzzle flip up on the slower loads. I love carrying the g29 in the summer with a 15 rd hi cap extra mag . during the winter I carry the G20. see if you can rent one and Go shoot it at a range with some different loads.

glockman30 Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 I don't think you can go wrong with any GLOCK! However, I prefer my G30 in .45 acp. It is very controlable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Posted February 14, 2004 Share Posted February 14, 2004 Have carried the 20 and 29 extensively. Both are great guns. Personally I have never understood what people were talking about when they mention the recoil of 10mm. It has just never seemed to be much at all, even when loaded hot. I prefer the 29 with a trimmed grip, but that is personal preference. Load it with anything Mike McNett at DoubleTapammo sells and you will be find wherever you go, whatever you do:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
