Have the option to trade, and in the trade will be a New 2 Tone Glock 38 in 45 GAP. I have been a 40SW person for a long time, and love my G23.
Any thoughts on this model?

"If ain't broke, don't fix it."If you try it side by side with the 23 you will convert, simple as that. Ammo is plenty available. 5 state police agencies use the round. Problem is Glock is the only one onboard, XD's were available in GAP and they did a nicer job than Glock in that they kept the slide the same width as their .40 and 9! Glock made the slide a bit wider. I was a nay sayer, but shot it side by side and the difference was night and day. The manufacturers could save big money on tooling, I would bet if they would embrace the round, for God's sake it is the 21st century, the GAP is more size efficient.
Actually, they dropped their .45ACP Glock 21s, not the .45GAP Glock 37 (which they never issued in the first place).REAPER4206969 said:I believe Madison, WI PD just dumped their 37's for 22's due to ammo price and availability.
Does it come with a .45 ACP conversion barrel?New 2 Tone Glock 38 in 45 GAP.
And there we have it, folks!love my G23.
think that people who criticize it are basically pretty closed minded about it.
if the semi solid liquid hits the rotating object,45 gap ammo is going to be rare and expensive.it was designed for small handed folks.not all shops handle it
.45GAP is in its death throws. There used to be other brands chambered for it but they all stopped making pistols in that caliber, and ammo is hard to come by. If you're a reloader you can trim down .45ACP cases if I remember correctly, and just make your own ammo with .45ACP bullets and small pistol primers.
