Pistol and Ammunition
Both Specifically
Designed for Defense
Why 30 Super Carry?
The 30 Super Carry round was developed specifically for personal defense, just like the PD10 Pistol. Introduced just about a year before the PD10 hit the market, it took Avidity Arms some time to truly examine the potential of chambering our flagship pistol in this boundary pushing new caliber. As soon as we did, we knew they were a great match!
30 Super Carry was designed by Federal Premium, one of the most trusted names in the ammunition industry. Currently, there are multiple full metal jacket and hollow point rounds available from Federal, CCI/Speer, Remington, Hornady and Blazer. You’ll find both practice ammo and defensive rounds are comparably priced to quality 9mm ammunition from the same brands. 30 Super Carry Defensive Ammunition often outperforms comparable 9mm rounds in gel tests. You can see 30SC gel tests from a PD10 at Personal Defense Network.
The 30SC PD10 Pistols have all the same specifications & features as the 9mm PD10s, except for magazine capacity. The reduced diameter of the 30SC case means you can get 12 rounds into a PD10 Magazine! The 30SC PD10 also carries the same $625 MSRP as the 9mm version. 30SC Pistols feature 416R Stainless Steel Shaw Barrels and are available with Gray or Black Frames and almost every part is interchangeable. In fact, if you already own a 9mm PD10, you can buy a conversion slide & barrel set and use the same magazines you already own (though you’ll only be able to load 10 rounds). The 30SC PD10s (and all PD10s manufactured after 4/2/24) feature magazines with an evolved follower that works with both calibers.
You can learn more about the decision to chamber the PD10 in 30SC in THIS VIDEO from Rob Pincus, President of Avidity Arms.
