Grendel P-30 info
I am interested in obtaining as much information as I can about the Grendel-P30 22 Mag pistol. Please email me at Abracadabra-11@webtv.net or post here and I'll reply if you leave me info to do so. I want to know what they are worth and or sell for, history, contacts, how much parts sell for, tips, and anything else that I may have not listed. Thanks, John

had one of these pistols with the longer barrel & really liked it....30 rds 22 mag made a lot of action.....carried it in car for several years...problem i had along with some other people was the firing pin breaking...it was a cylinder shaped base with a long tiny pin made onto one end of the base....it would break at the point where the pin extended forward from the base...now i have often wondered if i could machine a stronger pin & solve that problem....back then i was happy to get $150 & run 0 -
Had one and was pleased with a couple of it's features. Never could fire an entire magazine through it without it jamming, so traded it for a Colt Woodsman. Cannot abide by a firearm that doesn't work first time all the time. It was light weight, had a lot of fire power in a small package, accurate but never got it to work right. Made me unhappy to part with it but am happy with the Colt I now have. 0 -
Parts are a "grab what you can find" kind of problem, since they haven't made them in almost 22 years.
Magazines will bring upwards of $90, depending on who's buying.
I paid $250 for my first one in '83, but it came with 2 mags.
Nowadays, they sell for "around"$400.
Back when they were still being made in Cocoa, FL; the factory would fix any problem you might encounter, in record time.
I still have several models of the P30, and use one almost exclusively for IPSC/PPC-style matches; fun means never having to do a tactical reload!
You can tell a real shooter if the right-side safety has been replaced with a washer (too many times, the safety gets hit by the index finger and stops the gun).
The firing pin problem was taken care of within the first year of manufacture (bad subcontract specs), and jamming will still occur if the gun is dirty or poorly lubricated, or if using CCI ammo (they recommended use of Winchester .22WMRF ammo ONLY); other than these tidbits, I can only guess what else you need to know.0
