    Best .45ACP for CCW besides the...G30SF?

    I have 2 guns ready for CCW: Glock 30SF and CZ P-01 (9mm). I'm currently looking for another .45ACP that must have 1) 10rd and 2) concealable. The Glock 30SF is ideal and rather hard to find an equivalent in terms of power (.45), capacity (10rd), and concealment.

    Is there anything out there, SSEd or not, like it? I hate to get 2 of the same kind. Any suggestion? Most I see in the marketplace is either 8rd if you want concealment, or 10rd if you don't mind the size. Nothing I see has the same feature as the Glock 30SF, not even the HK45C which has only 8rd. The 10rd version is quite large for CCW. I'm not a Glock fanboy. In fact, this is the only Glock that I own. Was thinking about picking up the G26, but decided against it due to the recently acquired CZ.

            Not much of a fan of the MP. I've been looking at this HK45C, a bit hesitant though due to the fact that the 8rd that it carries. The gun looks really cool though. So far it's the only one that I found which comes close to the G30SF, save for the limited 8rd. As for size, I don't think it matters much. (G30S is essentially the same).

                The XD45 Compact is almost identical in size with the 10 round magazine.

                The XD is noticeable slimmer (by hand grip) if held at the same time.

                An advantage the 30 has is it has the 9 round option for a shorter grip, which might be better for ccw (maybe for some people).

                  Glock G30s.

                  Same size as a G19. Much easier to conceal than a G30 SF and much lighter. The G30s uses the G30 SF frame with a G36 slide/barrel. It even uses the same holsters as the G19. 10 round mags.

                      Yeah..it looks like the XD is a perfect candidate to the G30SF. It looks like it has a hand grip safety similar to that of the 1911, doesn't it?

                        Get a G36 and have a slim grip .45 and use the upper on your 30SF frame when you want 9 or 10 rounds with a fatter double stack grip?

                        I have a 29 with a 30S upper. 30S upper for you would be kind of redundant, so I'd get a 36.

                              That's where I got mine. Free shipping, GTG. They have been great for magazines. The 9 rounders are nice.
