·In my quest for a "camp" gun for the summer, I set out this morning looking for a 30 or 36.. (Has to be small enough not to be noticed by the campers, and with the certain 'abuse' it's likely to see, I knew Glock would be my best option.)
My dealer had a "used" 30 for $499... It had been fired once by the previous owner, reportedly a smallish fellow who found the recoil too much to bear after running 1 magazine thru it and promply returned it in trade for a 26... There was no holster or finish wear what-so-ever, and just the faintest hint of the usual recoil-induced ghosting on the barrel. The trigger pull felt lighter and 10 times more "crisp" (relative for a glock) than my 23...
A little chat with the friendly staff, a quick diversion to the workroom, a call to insta-check, and I left with the 30 and all it's original boxed accessories, a newly installed set of MeproLights (I like them), and a Fobus, for $580 after taxes...
How'd I do?
Any recommendations on a good ankle and IWB for it?
TIA,
Patrick
