Like the P30, the P30S was designed as a modern police and security pistol, by combining optimal function and safety. This P30S is a Variant 3 (V3) with a conventional double-action/single action trigger mode with a serrated decocking button on the rear of the slide, and no external safety. Ergonomic features include a grip frame with interchangeable backstrap inserts and lateral plates, allowing the pistol to be adapted to any user. It has ambidextrous dual slide releases and magazine release levers. The extractor serves as a loaded chamber indicator providing a reminder of a loaded chamber that can be subtly seen and felt. A Picatinny rail molded into the front of the frame makes mounting lights, laser aimers, or other accessories easy and convenient.
