My buddy has one that will be going up for sale, and although I don't NEED one, I'm certainly thinking about it
I've heard it is a great round, but...?

I enjoy shooting both of mine, G32C & G33. Ammo is a bit spendy but in a pinch I have both 40S&W barrels(G23 & G27) so I can change calibers and plink at the range with the cheeper stuff.

To me 357SIG has less muzzle flip and the recoil and its is over faster than even 9mm.  And looking at my IDPA classifier scores this last time I shot the 357 Glock 31 faster and more accurately (shot a 111) than my 9mm G17 (shot a 119).  YMMV.

Yeah, I have a G22 with an extra .357 barrel.  I like the .357 a lot better than .40.  Faster followup shots on double-taps, etc, and it seems to be quite a bit more accurate.  A lot flatter shooting, too - I can hit 12"x16" plates out to 100yds a lot easier with the .357 than I can with .40.

GoldDots in 357 only drop about 5-6" at 100yds out my G31.

My department issues the 31.  I carry it for uniform work, and a 32C for plain clothes.  I am a huge convert to this round, but was very skeptical at first.  The round shoots flat (we switched from .45's), and is easy to control.  It is very loud in a shoot house, though.  Since I get free ammo, price is no object to me.  If you don't it might be an issue.  Like my other Glocks, no function issues, ever.

I sure would like to get one eventually.  Right after I get a G21, a G37, another G17, another G19, a G36....
