I am an old wheel gun type, so I doubt if I would buy either. That said, my son in law has a Glock in .45acp that I have shot. It is the most intuitive shooting auto I have ever shot. Ugly as a mud fence and seems to be as reliable. The polymer frame soaks up the recoil like you would not believe. My guess is, same gun in .40 cal would be even better. Lots of knock down power and a little less recoil. Hell, most cops like the .40. that says something.
Beretta is a lot prettier though,

I hate to burst your bubble but 40 has more power than 45
