I read that Glock is coming out with a 45 caliber cartridge in its own name. It's supposed to be the same ballistically as 45 ACP, but short enough for Glock's shorter actions. It does this presumably by using more modern powders and materials than were used in the original 45 ACP. Kind of does for 45 ACP what 40 S&W did for the reduced 10mm loads used by police.
Any thoughts, opinions?
I don't think it'll ever be as popular as the 45, or any other for that. Only reason the 40 won over the 10mm was that the 10mm wasn't very old and established.
But... If this means they might make a Steyr M series in this caliber...
I'll take a 45 ACP first, but I'd take this round over my 40.
