new calibers: your opinions please

[jundeleon]

There have been additions to the classic calibers in recent times like the 45GAP, the 357Sig, 400corbon, 356TSW, and a .177hornet(?).

What do you think is the future of these rounds among handgunners, here in RP?

I think the Philippines will just follow along
with what happens with the rest of the world.

The 357sig has been available for quite a while now but still this cartridge is not available locally, that's for me though since i haven't seen any. I think the 45GAP will have a better chance of getting here once it picks up in the States. You already know the filipino romance with the 45. :)

And with the ogirinal 45 ACP, you can trim it to GAP lenght. That is, if you re-load.

One of my fellow gunclub member shoots a Glock31 (.357sig), former revolver shooter eh kaya bilib sa .357 caliber ;f ;f ;f

Medyo hirap nga daw kumuha ng shells for his reloads. His reloader necks down a .40S&W shell for him. The barrel of his G31 and my G22 are interchangeable, and so are our magazines. ;f
