Choice: P-30 or G19

[19852]

Given a choice which is a better choice overall?
A lightly used HK P-30, the DA/SA version or a new blue label Gen 4 or 3 G19?

I have experience with the DA/SA system with the Beretta M9 and lots 'o time behind DA revolvers. I also use a Browning P-35 from time to time.

I believe the issues with the Gen 4 Glocks to be largely resolved by this time. The HK is a proven quality. My primary use is carry with some competition thrown in for fun. I recently rented a Glock 17 and found it easy to transition from my Browning. The HK has a long heavy DA pull which doesn't deter me but the SA has a long take up to a light let off. I think the HK more accurate out at 25 yards. The HK already has Trijicon HD sights.

What would be your choice and why?

Thanks!

G19 for me. More aftermarket support and ease of maintenannce. Mags are cheaper as well.

P30 then I'd convert it to light LEM.

G19. It's idiot proof which I need from time to time.

I like both, I have owned both.

But I like the P30L (with light LEM) just a little bit better than the G19 or the P30.

G19 if nothing else for accessibility to parts and accessories.

G19 would be my choice much cheaper better after market, I like the p30 but always talk myself out of them. If I did a p30 it would only be a LEM but until mags drop in price ill stick with glocks.not to mention getting all the other kit for it.
Also a g19 is more than accurate at 25m

To be fair dollar to dollar... The question should be p30 or 2 g19s.

P-30 with Light LEM..and let's be honest here, the difference in price for mags isn't THAT much...typically $7-10. Grant has P-30 mags for $35.. I bought mine this spring from HKUSA, for $33. I certainly wouldn't let a few dollars difference in the price of mags, deter me from a higher quality, more accurate pistol, with no known issues, unlike some Glocks...
