Glock really needs to include a grip extension like the one you get by default with the G30. Not that it's a big deal but they've always been mentally defective about not putting finger extension things in the box with the G29 and a few other guns. Otherwise looking forward to adding one.
I hate the idea of grip extensions on compact guns. It's the short grip frame that makes them comact. Why even buy a compact gun only to un-compact it?Glock really needs to include a grip extension like the one you get by default with the G30.

I totally agree with this….I'm not into short barrel 10mm's, the velocity loss is greater than with a .45. I'm more interested in the G30.
My personal take is yes, the G20 is like handling a brick, but it's full size with a decent sight radius and otherwise manageable ergonomics. The G29 is like trying to handle that same brick but broken in half. Same bulky thickness but you lost the sight radius and half of the grip. I prefer the single stack G43 because in a wallet holster it's pretty close to the size of a wallet, unless of course you are one of those titanium ultra-slim wallet fans like @FalArAk .I get that, but this isn't a compact gun, IMHO that moniker is BS. A G29 or G30 is really more of a mid frame. We're talking about a brick here, it's just a smaller, easier to deal with brick than a G20.

If Glock made a single stack 10mm version of something like the G43X, I'd be 'in'.
I could never warm up to those half bricks, but I suck with snubbies too. Probably one of many mental deficiencies not something physical.Despite the lack of sight radius for whatever reason I shot the 29 and 30 pretty well vs my other glerks. And yes the 20 really isn't that unmanageable. Otherwise i wouldn't have 2 of them.
I think those buying these Glock 29's and 30's are going to be putting optics on them, so the sight radius loss isn't significant. That said, given the size of the 20s and 21s, there's not much lost going to the 40 and 41 as velocity is upped, especially in the 10mm.My personal take is yes, the G20 is like handling a brick, but it's full size with a decent sight radius and otherwise manageable ergonomics.

I can't imagine putting an optic on one of those little chunks.I think those buying these Glock 29's and 30's are going to be putting optics on them, so the sight radius loss isn't significant.

It doesnt really matter to begin with I actually did very well in drills with my G30. This isn't a pocket gun. A 20/21 is still carryable, a 40/41 not so much unless you like making a huge clunk noise every time you sit on a hard chair.....I think those buying these Glock 29's and 30's are going to be putting optics on them, so the sight radius loss isn't significant.

Nobody is going to do that hence they're not even offering it. Maybe that will change.I can't imagine putting an optic on one of those little chunks.
For normal times like now, there's not much reason to choose the 20/21, that's for when things are not good like late May 2020.It doesnt really matter to begin with I actually did very well in drills with my G30.

Ah, the old "belly gun" argument finally rears it's head and on a topic about a pistol with a near 4 inch barrel no less.For those that are talking about
short sight radius or optics this is not a long range or target gun. This is a point and shoot.

I would still rather carry the 29/30 than the 20/21 every time, but when the time comes that the 20/21 would be better, the 40/41 are better still.
I was referring to mostly peaceful times and the reason why you'd want a longer barrel for those times is because the extra velocity will extend the effective range of the pistol and if you run out of ammo the longer slide makes for a better club.Not sure what you mean by this, I'd much rather have a 20/21s than either of the longer guns. If I was hunting game with it or something, perhaps different story.
I don't know about you but, when dealing with diameters, usually I need calipers to tell huge 10mm from small 9mm.always wanted one but something else got in the way. and it's in my scaring the perps away when they see the huge barrel diameter in their face.
