New G30, price as good as I think?

[joemerchant24]

I have a NIB G30 (non-rail) with all the NIB stuff headed my way for a grand total of $414. Standard sights, non-adjustable.

I think I got a pretty good deal, but my fragile little ego needs reinforcement.

I live in Mass where G30s are RARE. I paid $575 for mine used (date code of December 96, which is the first run of G30s).

I think I paid $510 for mine back a few years. I put on my own night sights. I would be all over one for $414!

There are only three things I would do to a new G30 that is a carry piece.....

Replace the guide rod and springs with a Wolff non captured set at 19lb or slightly higher.

Install a set of night sights. I like Meprolights

Polish up the trigger and connector parts for a smoother trigger.
My 5lb trigger is very crisp, better than average I think.

Where did u find a NIB G30 for $414?????????

[joemerchant24]

Shop in Kentucky had one. Apparently no one wanted a non-railed one so he was willing to move it ASAP. Originally thought I had it for $385, but a minor bidding skirmish (hardly a war) erupted.

Worked out perfectly. I wanted a G30, I had no intentions or putting a light on it. He wanted to get rid of it. I wish he'd have had a stack of them. I'd give them as Christmas gifts (not really, but I may have bought two).

I'd snap up a NIB non-railed G30 in a heart beat at that price.



I sold one of my (gently used) G30s with night sights and Pearce grip extensions for $400. Now I wish I hadn't. :frown:

Excellent price. They're more like $540 around here.

I paid $450 OTD last year for my non-rail G30, but I had a very motivated seller.

Great gun and great deal, I can't figure out which one is better. Congrats!

This will make you weep.

I pretty much stole a gently used G30 (non-railed) off of a guy I know from work. Got the gun, 2 mags, 2 holsters, and about 75 rounds of ammo for $300. :freak:

I don't want the rail. It somewhat limits holster choice (but that is being corrected by the holster mfgs), and in my case the rail is not necessary. I have a G21 if I want to mount a light to something.

Great price. I paid around $550 for mine without rail.
