GAP --- Not !
All the pieces you mention are fine. All comes down to what you like. Would not recommend porting since the benefit is minimal and may impact resale value. Jury is still out on the .45 GAP. It does not seem to be catching on, and in time, may be discontinued. Very few wildcat rounds go on to great success - probably .40 S&W is the only notable exception in recent history. The GAP may enjoy a limited but dedicated following much like the 10mm, .38 Super, or .357 Sig. Also might dissappear like the .38/.45 Clark, .357 Maximum, and .45 Win Mag. If you are new to .45 ACP, recommend you consider an all-steel 1911 style first as a baseline for comparison.
Good Luck,
