Description
If you carry a Glock 30 in .45 ACP and want a magazine that doesn't extend past the grip, this is what you've been looking for. The ETS 9-round magazine gives you that clean, compact profile that makes the G30 one of the best concealed carry .45s on the market. It sits flush with the bottom of the frame, which means your pinky doesn't hang off the edge and the gun disappears easier under a shirt or in a waistband.
What makes the ETS 9-round .45 ACP magazine different
Elite Tactical Systems engineered this magazine from advanced polymer that resists impact, heat, cold, and UV exposure. The translucent carbon smoke finish lets you see how many rounds you have loaded without taking the magazine out, and the feed lips are designed to be creep-resistant so they won't spread over time even when you keep the magazine fully loaded on the shelf. Drop it, expose it to harsh conditions, run it hard at the range for months on end—the polymer won't become brittle or crack.
Practical advantages for Glock 30 owners
One of the main reasons people buy 9-round magazines for the G30 is how they change the handling of the gun. Instead of a two-finger grip with your pinky floating in air, you get a more balanced hold. This translates to better control, especially during rapid fire or weak-hand shooting. For everyday carry, that compact grip profile means the gun sits lower in the holster and prints less under clothing. The magazine itself is slim enough to fit in a shirt or pants pocket as a spare.
Built to work with your setup
The floor plate design is compatible with Glock OEM extensions and most popular aftermarket options, so you can customize the magazine to fit your needs. If you want to add grip extension, they're already factored into how this magazine was designed. ETS backs every magazine with a lifetime warranty, so you can run them with confidence knowing they're covered for the life of the product.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the 9-round magazine fit all Glock 30 models?
Yes. The ETS 9-round magazine works with the standard Glock 30, the 30S, 30SF, and all generations including Gen 3 and Gen 4. All these models share the same magazine well and magwell design, so compatibility is not an issue.
How does the 9-round capacity affect carry comfort compared to a 10-round mag?
The 9-round magazine sits flush with the bottom of the Glock 30's grip frame, making the gun much more concealable and easier to carry. A 10-round magazine extends past the grip, which adds length to the gun's profile and can make concealment more difficult. Many carry users prefer the 9-rounder for IWB or pocket carry setups.
What does the carbon smoke finish mean?
Carbon smoke is a semi-translucent polymer color that lets you see through the magazine body to check your round count and ammunition type without removing the magazine. The carbon smoke color also provides a professional look and blends well with most tactical equipment.
Can I use aftermarket floor plate extensions with this magazine?
Yes. The ETS magazine base plate is designed to be compatible with Glock OEM floor plates and a wide range of popular aftermarket Glock extensions, so you can customize the grip length to your preference if needed.
