I don't see the point of the 45GAP, unless you are an LEO required to shoot a 45 cal weapon, and have small hands. Why not go with a 40 in the same grip size, get more power (muzzle energy), more capacity, and more readily available ammo? Sorry, I just cant see any advantage to the caliber. If you want a 45 get the ACP, its available in enough platforms, you could surely find one that sparks an interest.
