I had a G30 for awhile, finally selling it because it was too thick for carrying inside the waistband. It was a great shooter, though. But it was a full 1/4" thicker than my 1911. That made a big difference for me.
You say, "for the Police officers, Glocks are perfect".

I know a lot of officers that would disagree. For their administrators and bean counters, maybe yes. For LEO's that are actual gun enthusiasts, not always the case. Although the big gripe I hear most from my LEO friends that I hunt and shoot with is, that many of today's cops won't do any range time unless they're made to. For those types, who wont take the time or interest in learning DA/SA and 1911 platforms, maybe it makes sense.
