The 9mm round courts the upper limits of the system's mechanical and strength capabilities. The .45 ACP would demand even more from the gun's action. I think any of us would be interested in owning one in .45, but those produced nowadays--either by joining two halves+ of donor guns, or from scratch--are pretty pricey. Our pal Eugene G., the Lugerman, is on track to create a few, but that hasn't been mentioned in a year or more. Obviously, his rendition would need to account for the extra power/stresses of the .45 round, if/when it arrives.
