So, then, why not .45 GAP?.....cause it is another orphan that was produced without merit. Just is not a need for anything between .45 and 9mm.
Keep it simple, stock your ammo in quantity, practice often, and remember, if ya hit 'em in the gut their natural reaction is to drop what is in their hands.

Absolutely agreed.....in rifles I shoot .308...period....my kids have a bunch of .22 rifles, I do not shoot them.
In pistols I practice with the G17 as it allows me to pull off 20 plus rounds(extended mags) to try to stay on target. I create fatigue with high cap mags. And some of you that have met me have seen or shot one of my G17's that have the grip reduced to a 1911 shape. Two of them are going to Lane Owens in Texas next month for re-shaping. I try to keep my grip the same.
My SD pistol choice has gone back to a 1911 in .45 full time.
I stock .45, 9mm, 22, .308 and 12 gauge.
I am fairly stupid, so I need the KISS principle. (
