Glock  31 Gen 3 like new condition picked up in a trade. I traded a Sig P320 9mm for the G31  that came with a new G22 barrel and 200 rounds of .357 Sig ammo.

I have one... I reload for it so ammo costs/availability are a non-issue for me.

My first Glock was a 31c, awesome fireball spewing gun!

I have a 32 and 27w/ 357 barrel and I rarely shoot them because of ammo cost and availability.  I carried the G32 for over 10 years and rarely shot 357 most 40 through it because of the cost of the ammo.

Snagged a G32gen4 a few years ago, sat a local forum for a month, owner kept lowering the price.... couldn't pass on it.

I've ran a few boxes of factory ammo thru it, then purchased a set of dies.  Need to do some load development soon.

Availability and cost are two different things.

I cringe at paying $37 for target .357sig, luckily it can be reloaded for a fraction of the cost.... now I just need to get off my butt, pick a bullet (probably a 147gr XTP) and do some load development.

If you shoot .357 Sig it is cheaper to do this which is super sad......

Not the first time I've noticed that SD ammo is often cheaper than target ammo in .357sig.

Sadly the shipping charge will put you closer to the $32 unless you are buying in bulk.

Surely not a cartridge for those with shallow pockets, and or no ability to reload.

Our SD carries it on duty.  It is a freight train of a round ballistically.  

Just not many people who like the snap or the price of the ammo

I almost bought a P239 in one but bought a 228 instead and am happy with the choice.

Congrats on your new Glock 31 in 357 Sig. I have a G27 barrel for my G33. Like others are stating, 357 Sig is not for those with shallow pockets. I usually buy 357 Sig in bulk, or what's on the shelf 40cal wise at Wally World.

You would really have to buy like 10 boxes to get by but at 12.99 flat rate that is not terrible if you plan to do a lot of shooting of 357.  I remember paying 23+ per box all the way up to 32 for 50 and that was just WWB.
