    Transition went smoothly with zero malfunctions. The gun shot perfectly and it is actually easier to perform one-handed malfunction drills with than the 17. Don't ask me why, but that was my impression.

    The only problem is that I need more .45 caliber ammo now.

    I'm really surprised that ISP went with .45 acp considering the so called budget constraints. If you look at the price of the guns [even after trade in], the price of replacing holsters, ammo pouches and the higher cost of .45 acp ammo, that's a pretty substantial investment.

    Will detectives and undercovers transition to Glock 30s?

    Only if we buy them. The Glock 21 is the only issued weapon.

    Have to wait and see what the next superintendent wants to do. He could change us back to the 17s or to a entirely different gun.

    I was wondering about that too, but the Gen 4 feels great in the hand. It feels better than my 21SF even. We don't have any women at our post.

    Would the gen 4 17 feel different than earlier generations? I am looking for a 9mm polymer for competition and so far, I have shot a G17, Ruger SR9 and M&P. The Glock was an older one that was in pretty rough shape and the sights were off. I shot poorly with that compared to the Ruger and M&P. AM I not giving the Glock a fair shake?

    Get an M&P Pro.

    I have a gen 4 Glock 23 also. I prefer the feel of the gen 4 frames over all other grips. Just me.
