I was wondering what the next pistol in the Glock line up was going to be?

What does Glock have planned for the US market following the models 37 38 and 39. I have heard they might be trying to lure US military contracts with a new model with more features in 45 caliber. and if so is the 45 gap the current runner up? I was thinking of purchasing a model 38 but with the price of the ammo military use would seem to make this round more common sooner. Thank you. TIna's Husband.

Gaston Glock is notoriously quiet about any upcoming products in the Glock line. For some time there have been rumors of a .22 pistol in development, as has a true large bore magnum round. Most development and resources however are focused on the military/law enforcement markets traditionally. I suspect for the foreseeable future this is where new models will be introduced. Pistols along the lines of the Glock 18, the "sub-lethal" compressed air guns, and others tailored to the SF communities. As for the .45 GAP round being adopted by the US military for any widespread use, that's very unlikely. Contracts for current issue 92f are secured for the foreseeable future and .45 ACP models, issued primarily to SF, from various manufacturers have a very high loyalty and lobby to bring the cartridge back to replace the 9mm in general issue. I hope my rather long reply to your question is of some help. I am a Glock owner and have worked with police and other organizations training their members to fully utilize their issued Glocks. I regularly have contacts with other instructors, armorers, and organizations involved with Glock products. I'm sorry I wasn't able to more fully elaborate on non civilian models in use or in development due to restrictions in disclosure.
