" Glock 30 is everything you could ever want in a handgun. 10 rounds of .45 caliber stopping power, 100% reliability, and extreme accuracy out of the box. "

How much maintenance is required for something like this?

There are videos around of people who dropped one in a bucket of sandy mud for a month, dragged it behind a car for 50 miles, dropped it out of an airplane, then racked the slide and shot 10 rounds. You don't even have to clean a Glock, they are manufactured to work forever with no maintenance. If you like the insides all shiny, you can clean and lube it every time you shoot. I can show you how to field strip a Glock in 5 seconds, then you just put a drop of oil on the rails and snap it back together.
