This full-size Mod. 30 M is built on a forged steel frame with the slide running inside the frame rails for a tight, guided fit. It operates with a short-recoil, DA/SA system and an external hammer, delivering a 15+1 capacity in 9mm Luger with a 4.25 in barrel.
The pistol’s control layout is comprehensive and ambidextrous. It includes a slide-mounted manual safety with decocker, a firing pin block, a magazine disconnect, a drop safety, and a loaded-chamber indicator. The removable fire-control module supports armorer-level maintenance.
Sighting is precise and service-oriented, combining a fixed front blade with a micrometer-adjustable rear sight. The 160 mm sight radius and a serrated top rib aid a clear sight picture.
Ergonomics and durability are emphasized with checkered black synthetic grip panels secured by Star medallion screws, plus an integral lanyard ring at the rear of the frame. Import and proof details include the C.A.I. GEORGIA, VT – MADE IN SPAIN mark, a GC stamp on the left dustcover, and an 85 stamp at the left front of the trigger guard. Factory dimensions list an overall length of 205 mm, height of 135 mm, width of 33 mm, and an empty weight of 1,140 g. Produced and fielded in Spain during the mid-1980s–1990s, it saw use with the Spanish Armed Forces and Guardia Civil.
