Well, the Glock 30 is pretty small, but still heavy when fully loaded. I'm pretty much a .45 bigot and had given up most of my smaller pistols since moving to Colorado. This new Sig p365 is just so darned small and light, and can still carry either 10 or 12 rounds of 9mm (depending on magazine choice). It has had great reviews, and no wonder. It is the same size or smaller than most similar weapons with single stack magazine that only hold 6-7 rounds. Yet it still shoots "like a big gun", giving far above average accuracy for it's size.
This will be my primary spring/summer carry as it can easily fit in shorts or other small pocket, easily concealable and comfortable to carry around. They are still hard to find, as they are so popular right now, most stores can't keep them in stock. Well worth the trip to find one and check it out, but be prepared to purchase, cause it will be hard to walk away!
Thanks for the detailed answer.
Here, in Israel, we do not have the luxury of owning multiple weapons. Only one gun per person.
I used to carry Glock 17 for long enough time to appreciate any weight saving. So yes, your choice looks like highly reasonable!
Thanks for your feedback, very interesting. The image painted by our media is that everyone over there is walking around with submachine guns strapped around their shoulders. Nice to hear a voice from the real world. Sorry for your restrictions. Seems senseless to me.
Yea... I used to carry M-16 and Galil assault rifles for long 3 years of my military service in Israel Defense Forces. Actually all those pictures of guys with sub-machine guns are of soldiers in leave. Once you are mobilized, you do not give up arms during vacations.
Regarding guns for civilian population, it's for sale only to certain population groups: settlers, owners of small businesses and several more. You kind of should justify why you need a gun for self-defense.
