In reply to Mark. I own a Glock 37 Gen 1 and used 250 rounds of the Speer Lawman 230gr for target practice. The only problem I have had is the magazine wear that rechambers a round after the last round has fired and leaves the gun breached open.

In reply to Mark. The G37 handles 230grain quite well actually and shouldn't give you any problems as long as you don't try to cut corners with handloading or anything like that. We used a bunch of different ammo, but we liked the Winchester SXT. We can't speak to how it will affect the longevity of your gun, but it shouldn't present any performance issues. Regarding the new gen Glocks, they never made a gen 4 or 5 .45GAP pistol, but we're not sure why.

Wondering if anyone can comment on how the Glock 37 handles 230 grain GAP ammo. I don’t believe it was originally offered when the GAP cartridge was created. Now that it is, I’m wondering if the Glock 37 can handle it. One article I read indicated the 230 grain GAP ammo pushes the Glock 37 to it’s structural limits… have any Glock 37’s broken as a result of running that ammo? Does anyone here have experience running 230 grain GAP ammo through the Glock 37? If so, how many rounds of it have you fired through your 37? I think the 45 GAP is a great idea. Carried a Glock 19 for years, and wished Glock would make a handgun that carried a 45, but in the smaller form factor of the Glock 17 / 19. In addition to wondering if the G37 can handle 230 grain GAP ammo, I’m also wondering what GEN updates the clock has done for the 45 GAP family of handguns. I read that the G37 was upgraded to GEN 4, but apparently not GEN 5. Also read that the G38 and G39 never got updated to GEN 4. Is that true?

I purchased my Glock 37 Gen 3 two weeks ago. It is a retired state police weapon, and is in excellent condition. Yesterday was my second range trip with this Glock, and I must say how impressed I am with the handgun and the cartridge. I found it to be very controllable, inherently accurate, and as with any Glock, a breeze to disassemble and clean. Ammunition seems plentiful, as both of the gun shops in my area have ample supplies of both practice and defence ammunition in both 185 and 200 grain. I am quite pleased with my purchase, and look forward to purchasing several more as I come across them.

To all the naysayers who seem to be determined to condemn this weapon and caliber, I would suggest actually picking one up and trying it out personally before continuing with the borderline hysterical diatribes I have seen on some of the forums regarding both weapon and caliber…..you may just be pleasantly surprised…..
