About the Gun

Fourth-generation full-size pistol in .45 GAP features a polymer frame with interchangeable backstraps that allow adjustment of grip circumference and angle for different hand sizes. It includes an enlarged reversible magazine release, a dual-recoil-spring assembly, and rough-textured frame surfaces. The slide houses standard fixed sights, and the design maintains the short-recoil, locked-breech operating system with a striker-fired trigger mechanism.

Analysis

This variant applied the Gen4 ergonomic and recoil-management updates to the .45 GAP platform, which was designed to deliver ballistics comparable to .45 ACP within the dimensions of a standard full-size Glock frame. The model offered an alternative for users seeking .45-caliber performance without the wider grip of the G21. Adoption remained limited due to the cartridge's relatively narrow market penetration and declining availability of factory ammunition. Secondary market supply is low, reflecting modest production numbers.
