The .30 Super Carry: The Future of Concealed Carry or Just a Flash in the Pan?

Image
When Federal Premium announced the .30 Super Carry in early 2022, the concealed carry world raised an eyebrow. A brand-new handgun caliber designed specifically for personal defense? That’s a bold move in a market where the 9mm has been king for decades. But Federal wasn’t just throwing another round into the mix for the sake of variety—the .30 Super Carry was designed to fill a real gap in the market. More capacity, better penetration, and similar ballistic performance to 9mm, all in a slimmer package. Sounds good on paper, but how does it actually stack up in the real world? Let’s take a deep dive into the .30 Super Carry and see if it has what it takes to carve out a lasting place in the firearms landscape. The .30 Super Carry: What Is It?

When it comes to rifle cartridges, two heavy hitters always find their way into the discussion—the .30-06 Springfield and .308 Winchester . Both are legendary, both have seen military and civilian action, and both have their share of die-hard fans.

The Girsan MCP35: A Modern Take on the Browning Hi-Power

Image
The Browning Hi-Power is one of the most iconic and beloved handguns of the 20th century. Designed by John Moses Browning and later refined by Dieudonné Saive, the Hi-Power became the gold standard for military and police sidearms around the world. But as time marched on, so did the firearms industry, leaving the Hi-Power somewhat outdated in the modern age. However, in recent years, renewed interest in the platform has led to the revival of the design, with companies such as FN Herstal and Springfield Armory releasing their own modernized versions. Among these, one of the most intriguing entries is the Girsan MCP35, a Turkish-made take on the classic design.
