Eugene, would a .40 luger be possible? I know it's a high pressure cartridge.

I do not see why not.

Lugers a strong guns...

It may be even less change then 45 GAP.

Less mods on the frame.

Problem is i got breach block for 45 GAP cut as well as barrels.

And i got nothing for 40.

If i will be making other calibers , I think i like 357 Sig better

I agree. 125gr .357 SIG out of 8" arty barrel or carbine would have serious bite. You would have plenty of penetration from a 4" barrel with a JHP.
