Quoted: VERY interesting! What are your thoughts on this round staying in production for the long haul?

Well, more and more guns are being chambered in it. Also, the ammo is being manufactured by more then one major manufactuer now....
I personally wouldn't buy it....though I received some ammo by accident....didn't realize it till a few weeks later that the local gun shop guy grabbed the wrong boxes.... too late to return.
If it has the same power as a 45 ACP w/ the 200gr bullet, but in a 9mm frame, does that mean the recoil will be "worse"???? I don't really want to get started in a debate of capacity vs power vs recoil vs (what ever)....
-edit
actually, the Cav Arms CAV-15AL would take a mag block for a 9 set up (single peice). But, if your point is that the 45 GAP would serve people w/ existing lowers, I agree.....
But it bring up an other issue why the 45 ACP uppers are not in abundace....mags. The CAV-15AL is one way to solve that 'issue'-to use the supply of GG mags. Another solution (mainly up to Oly), is to make mags. Since Oly uses a spacer block, it would be in their best interest, in my humble opinion, to get together w/ a mag manufactuer and MAKE some hicap 45 ACP mags that fit in the standard mag well.
