I really like .45 GAP. I have a number of Glock 37 pistols and they are probably my most accurate Glocks (I also have a G19 gen5, G19x, G21 gen3, G21 gen4, and G30SF). I have a bunch of .45 GAP ammo and brass (I reload) so from a logistics aspect, I am not hamstrung.
Getting about the same performance as a .45 ACP, but in a smaller package is appealing. That said, if you are starting new and don’t have a supply of .45 GAP ammo or brass to reload, any savings that you obtain by buying a well-priced pistol in .45 GAP will diminish as you pay more for .45 GAP than mainstream .45 ACP.
It’s a great round, but the lack of popularity makes ammo difficult to find and often more expensive than .45 ACP when you do source it.
