Hey, I need some opinions on the P30 in 9mm. I had the H&K 45 and it was OK but not a $900 pistol for a casual shooter. I have a Sig P229 with all the bells and whistles and have been offered a P30 in trade. Both guns are about 6 months old.
I read a review comparing the Sig M11-A1 and the H&K P30 and at the end a survey was 90% in favor of the Sig. That surprised me but H&K's primary claim to fame is 100,000 rounds without a failure. OK, but is it pleasant to shoot? The 45 was not. I have only talked to one guy that had a P30 (he sold me the HK45) and he liked the P30.
Anybody with and experience here? If accuracy is similar and recoil is similar, the Sig mags are cheaper and I already have a bunch. My P229 is a Factory Special Configuration and just one of three that I like to shoot.
Anybody here that can talk me into trading for a P30? :huh:
I just use the P229 for trips to the range, I do not carry it.
If I don't like the P30 is it a $850 pistol? I think that might be a stretch.
Thanks,
Eric
