What justification could there ever be for a 30 round mag?

As a shooter - in my opinion, there really isn't a reason for a 30 round mag
for a handgun. That said, once one is created, you can bet there will be
collectors, and the like that will want to have one, just because they
exist.


a) Lousy shot?

b) "Necessary" because the threat is _that_ ominous? (Which would
make me think that another choice of weapon might be better?)

That would be my thought.


c) Some guy decided to manufacture those 30 round mags because he knew
some idiot would feel the need to buy one?

Seriously... why? Wouldn't it be better to pack TWO Glocks and hold
them sideways when firing after you've turned your ballcap around 90°?
Maybe a 30-round mag is a fashion statement to the romanticized
gangbangers?

Personally, if I can't eliminate a threat in 10 rounds, why would I
even bother to carry a gun?

Agreed.
