Yeah, yeah... I heard the Mosin Nagant is no longer currently being produced too and that makes a hill of beans... wait...umm you're still wrong! I can get a Bond Arms Deringer in .45 GAP. :rotf:

So do you think Glock will go and make a pistol chambered in .45 SAP? :D

So the gun my dad won was a G17. He has decided that he wants a 45 as he does not have any other pistols. He worked a deal with the gun shop to trade straight up for a G21. Thanks for all the input and advice :D He is pumped and I can't wait to take him to the range.

a standard 21 or 21SF? Did he hold one before he agreed to the trade?

a standard frame, he held it at the shop and liked it. To be honest I think he would like any gun at this point. He doesnt and probably wont shoot that much. Just something to carry in the woods hunting and stuff.

Congrats to him! A straight up trade was a great deal.

He should be happy with the trade. I have a Glock 21SF that I use for USPSA and honestly love it (well the ambi-magazine release can be a slight headache due to the fact it doesn't reliably drop the magazines completely but that's not a problem for most usage).

Edit 2010-12-07 14:22: Ambi-magazine release, not an ambi-safety.

I made the mistake of not mentioning the .45 GAP round and it sort of killed the thread.

I don't own a G21, but since GLOCK pistols do not have external safeties, I'm assuming you meant ambidextrous magazine release?

Yea they do, and you can shoot it either right or left handed...... "This is my safety!" :lol:
