Can a gap 45 be fired in a 45 acp?

Nooop.


What is the difference between acp and gap?

The .45 GAP is a shorter cartridge than the .45 ACP. Developed for the Glock Automatic Pistol (that's the GAP) it does not interchange with the .45 Colt Automatic Pistol (ACP). Made for a smaller firearm, shorter action, etc.


Can you shoot any 45 auto in your 45 acp pistol?

No. The 45 ACP (which means 45 Auto) cannot use the .45 GAP or the .45 Magnum.


Can you shoot a 45 auto round through a 45 gun?

You can fire a .45 ACP cartridge through a .45 ACP pistol - and only a .45 ACP pistol. The various .45 cartridges (.45 ACP, .45 Long Colt, .45 GAP, etc.) are not interchangeable with each other.


Can you shoot 45 auto and 45 ACP?

ACP means Automatic Colt Pistol. .45 ACP and .45 Auto are the same cartridge. .45 Colt and .45 Auto Rim are a revolver cartridge. .45 GAP (Glock Auto Pistol) is a shorter round than the ACP, and does not interchange with it.


What is the difference in 45 acp and 45 gap?

.45 gap is a shorter cartridge and can only be safely fired from a gun chambered for that specific cartridge.


Can you shoot 45 acp ammo in a Glock 37?

Nope. Matter of fact, you can't even load it. The .45 Automatic Colt Pistol (ACP) cartridge is longer than the .45 Glock Automatic Pistol cartridge (GAP). And the model 37 IS in .45 GAP. Both rounds headspace off the case MOUTH- the .45 ACP is too long for the slide to go into battery (close the action). And, with the exception of some revolvers, you cannot shoot .45 GAP in an .45 ACP firearm.


Can you fire an ACP round fom a Glock 45?

Aside from the uncommon .45 GAP chambered Glocks, yes. Check the marking on your barrel for the .45 ACP marking.


Are acp and gap rounds the same?

No. The .45 Automatic Colt Pistol (ACP) cartridge is longer the the .45 Glock Automatic Pistol (GAP) cartridge. Since they headspace on the MOUTH of the cartridge case, they cannot be interchanged.


Can you fire 45 acp in a glock 21?

The Glock 21 does fire the .45 ACP, as does the Glock 30. You're probably thinking of the Glock 37, 38, and 39, which fire the .45 GAP cartridge - those cannot fire a .45 ACP.


Can you use 45auto ammo in a 45gap?

No. The .45 ACP catridge is longer than the .45 GAP cartridge.


Can ammo that does not say acp be used in a hand gun that says acp n gun?

Yes- IF IT IS THE CORECT CARTRIDGE. .45 ACP (Automatic Colt Pistol) may also be known as .45 Auto. It is NOT the same cartridge as .45 GAP (Glock Auto Pistol) or .45 Colt (revolver cartridge).
