    I wonder why Glock didn't release it with MOS to start?

    I love my 20+yr old G20.3, it's eaten everything I've fed it, the latter half of it's diet has been heavy BB or DT loads. G19.5 &/or pocket LCR cover 99% of my edc, G26.5 & .22 LCP cover that last 1%. It's been at least 3yrs since I've fired my 1911 and probably only have a 2-300rds of .45acp in my closet. And all this is immaterial in the face of the utterly unexpected dental & mechanical bills that recently hit my world...

    BUT STILL - my desire for a non-MOS G30.5 is undeniable. If @Lost River buys one & starts running his +P 250gr'ers through it, I'm probably sunk.

    I’ll buy a G30, but I’m disappointed it’s not MOS.

    There is a local competitor, who regularly shoots his G29 with factory 10mm ammo. He is a big boy, but it is easy to see how much harder the 29 is to shoot, than say a 19. You really need to be a 10mm aficionado to pick this over other choices.

    I wonder what reliability will be like with full power 10mm in the 29.5. I’m guessing that the slide velocity/mag feed issues will be worse than in a G20. And how much velocity will be lost in a shorter barrel?

    My sense is that with Glock 10mm pistols, size matters, with the larger model 40 able to handle heavier loads than the 20, and the 20 better than the 29. Now if all you want to shoot is milder box 10mm, probably not an issue.

    So … basically a heavy, chunky G23.

    I find a G5 23 far easier to shoot than the multiple 29 Glocks we have.
