Glock G43X : Is the G43 Obsolete?

We take a look at the difference between the Glock G43X and the G43 to decide if the G43 is still viable. Of course it is, but we talk reasons and show options.

I’m with Jim Waldron on this. G43 was made for deep concealment. Anything made to add to the magazine length just makes it more difficult to conceal. The G43 is not a pleasure to shoot. What is it? A 7 shot, highly reliable, tiny weapon that is easily concealed and won’t let you down. People that complain about slide durability with the finish are worried about the wrong things. It’s a weapon designed for one thing and it’s not meant to be pretty.

[@MrMajintiger]

i also liked the g43 for deep concealment but when i went to get one and seen the 43 x the more i thought about it i was pretty certain i would run tarran extensions anyways and can always take out use regular mag looked closer was like an inch difference not even for 4 more rounds plus i didnt have to buy the extension this is def a tug of war argument. i think either would be a good option told my father to get the regular 43 so we can swap out lol. wanted all black one but silver is growing on me plus its super tough dont know if the black will be like the regulars glocks finish

[@kananisha]

I have the Taran Tactical base pads whaich makes the 43 9+1 runs fine and does add a whole lot of size and the extra weight in the mag balances it a bit and makes for a better drop I also have the TRL6 light . The 43x doesnt make me want to change over but thats just me.

[@treytison1444]

Glock should have just made their own extended mags for the 43. I bet they would've made more money since only Glock superfans bought the 43x.

[@1211riob]

Dude, thank u! I’m so tired of guys complaining about cosmetics. Are we buying them for durability and reliability or to look cute at the range?!

[@lb0193]

I do admit the finish on gen 4 guns is terrible...gen 3’s are so much better...I’m not sure about the gen 5’s

[@justsomemincedgarlic]

The g43x with a shield arms 15 round steel mag is my new carry gun. The longer g43x grip is more comfortable to me, but the thinner and lighter profile of the gun, with the same exact capacity as my big g19 is actually amazing to me.

[@Jdcakamatsu9]

I just went and purchased mine today. Thank you for the honest review.

[@lonestar4775]

G43 was my first gun and will always be my favorite! Thanks for this video as always informative!🇺🇸👍🏻

[@AlaskanBallistics]

I like them both... i carry a g19. I have a 43, and have shot the 43x. They are both great. The 43x draws better and isn't that much harder to conceal. I'm not going to go sell my g43 for a g43x but i'd buy the g43x over the 43 if i didn't own one already

[@Nathaniel_Luciano]

Glock 43 All the way! Great video. Very detailed.

[@jimmymassie8420]

And next month when I receive my Shield Arms 15 round mags My G48 will have the same capacity as the 19. Great video Sootch your reviews are always so detailed. Love watching your channel.

[@jimwaldron6828]

I believe that the G43 still has a deep concealment application

[@sootch00]

I agree. The G43 grip is much easier to conceal but I love the way the G43x shoots. I guess that's how I justify both! lol! Thanks Jim!

[@joemo1033]

And as a secondary/Backup CCW. That's what I use the 42 for in a shoulder holster to backup my EDC gen4 19.

[@tim18wheels76]

That's my thought also. The G43 scores well next to 380 and 9mm of the same size for deep concealment or pocket carry. Modularity is also nice.

[@garysarratt1]

And the 42.

[@lambdog76]

Absolutely, there is still a role. if anything the 43x is absolute as I could take my 48 and my 43 and make one...

[@bobbyfanman1734]

Just got my Shield Arms 15 round magazine yesterday, game changer for the 43X. My G19 is very jealous as she sits in the safe all day and night.

Thank you for showing the comparison of the 43 with the extension compared to the 43x. Super helpful! Also I’m sure you’re aware but S&P now makes a stock size metal mag for the 43 and 48x that holds 15. Game changer!

[@tvj2015]

Great video as always! As a smaller framed guy, I still love the deep concealment of my G43 with Taran mag extensions... and when my clothing isn't too light then it's a G26. I don't think the grip length of the G43x would work well for me and can't justify it when my G43 and G26 do the job just fine.

[@sootch00]

Thanks T! The G43x is harder to conceal.

[@toadzhouze]

Again, great video! I've got both the G43 and G43X and love 'em both. ("Conjunction, conjunction, what's your function!" That's dating you, but I'm very familiar with the reference! :) )

Magguts now has a +2 conversion, just barely larger than the original flat floor plate.... I love it.... When removing floor plates the sides of the mag body should be compressed to avoid damaging the locking lugs

Joe Morrell Good call on a 42x. I'd love one! Sure people would ridicule, saying you can get 8, 10, or even 12 rounds of 9 in a gun almost as small as any 380. I say screw them lol! I'm all for having 10 rounds of 380 in a lightweight and easy recoiling gun like a G42 even if it had a slighly longer grip.

You can have a 15 round flush metal mag for the G43X and the G48 from Shield Arms, look it up.

[@StrainXv]

The S15 kinda makes it worth it's own. 15 rounds in a single stack grip....

[@mrgrump2534]

Kyser I think the point everyone is trying to make is that there’s no way the 43x is as concealable no matter what it’s wider and longer may as well carry a 19 ... and if u need more rounds carry a spare mag that’s what there there for silly.

[@trkyhntr8685]

I have a g43 and a g26, I thought the 43x was a stupid idea until I held one. Much slimmer than a 26, same length and much better grip on it than the 43 or 26. The 43xis nice! The only thing the 26 has for me is sometimes I pocket carry it.

[@9x19G19]

That's because Glock magazines are polymer with a steel reinforcement...Basically if you remove the polymer and take a thinner steel mag and expand it to the outer meassures of the original mag, you would end up with a double stack steel mag for a slim framed Glock....

For a sub-compact, I really liked the grip on the G43. Plus it comes in black :)

[@MrMajintiger]

glockstore has 43x in black 25 extra bones

[@NonTacticalShooter]

I think the 43 is still relevant. It's shorter grip provides for a little better deep concealment vs the 43X. And for those with smaller hands like my wife, it fits better in her hands than my 43X. As always great video.

[@sootch00]

Thanks Brother! I agree.

[@SteelPastor]

As of today (actually yesterday), Magguts came out with a NEW replacement baseplate and spring kit. However, rather than being a +1 by only changing the spring... it is a +2 by replacing the baseplate and spring. It adds only a 1/4" to the stock baseplate. So... EIGHT +1 for the stock Glock 43.

[@tomparker8932]

Just ordered the black slide G43x and handled one @ the range today. I was kinda surprised the frame/grip was smaller than i thought (got big hands) but nevertheless very comfy and slim enough for concealed and lightweight for all day carry. Dig the ACDC guitarwork in the background and outakes are always funny. thanx

Good tune! Having a full size hand(s) I want a whole grip to hold on to. Thanks Sootch!

[@MDpolo]

I shot the 43x and I shot it left. Tried it several times on different days and it shot left every time. On the same range days I did not shoot left with any of the other pistols that I had with me including my G43. I don't know why. I also like the flexibility of concealment with the 43. I can go to 8+1 or 6+1 if needed. The 43x does not give you that flexibility. Yes, I know I'm loosing a couple of rounds vs the 43x, but I gain flexibility. I might get the 48 to play with the slides, but for me, I'll happily will keep my 43 with a Vickers Tango Down +2 extension. Thanks for the review!

[@hwclr]

I spent part of my youth swinging a 7 ib. hammer as a steel worker. My palm fits the 43 well as my hand is broader that it is long (no piano in my past). It is my carry now as it was economical and accurate. A century Arms mag and extensions give me more capacity.

[@zenonayala9557]

You have answered all of my questions.

[@donaldtompkins1048]

One of the benefits I like about my G43X is the quick draw and presentation. I appendix carry and I like that I'm able to get a full hold on the grip and I can clear my holster and present alot faster than my G19 due to the shorter barrel. I noticed I started to not carry as often due to the bulk from my G19 but thing fits the bill. Either way guys, Glock now has options for any application...best all around I recommend a G19, but for something more carry friendly, the G43X is a great option. I'll sacrifice the 5 rounds if it means I'll actually carry the damn thing more often. And if you own the G43, I see no reason to upgrade. I would've picked one up but I hate my pinky hanging off, and/or pinching the shit out of it during reloads with a subcompact. Great video Sootch!

[@kevinc.cucumber3697]

5 round sacrifice is not a thing anymore

[@kirsch1616]

I’ve been carrying a 26 for almost 10 years. Convinced my father last month to buy his first Glock, a 43. A week later I walked in and bought the 43x. I’m not sure why I bought it. The next day I put her thru the ringer shooting about 700 rounds and let me tell you I love this gun.

[@jeffpaul8260]

NOt sure, the sig p365 and the springfield hellcat are both same size(or within microns) of the g43 but with higher round counts. Now some argue its all about the number of rounds. i personally carry a taurus 856 6 shot revolver or kahr cm9 which both have lower round counts than the new wonder micro nines, however my hellcat is on its way, should i feel the need to go into an area where the need for higher round count may be needed (ie: the cities)

[@pl3bsy]

Being a big guy, with big hands I definitely liked the feel of the 43X over the 43. By the time I get more mags and what not for the 43, I could’ve just bought the 43X. Plus the 43x will still hold one more than the 43 with a +3. So it was a no brainer for me. I’ve dumped 100 rounds since i bought it last night, and so far I’m in love. Hopefully the 15 round mag comes back and I’ll have basically a G19 slim.

[@risteardwest3384]

Excellent video explaining everything about the Glock 43 43x and 48 48 is much better than the Glock 43x it's a little bit longer same size as a Glock 19 but the 43 it's good for CCW cuz you could conceal it a lot better even though it only has six shots plus one in the chamber but that's up to you they are all three excellent guns if you could even find one today it just seems like nobody has them anymore 💯🇺🇸👍

The only thing that could make the 43x better would be adding a rail for a mounted light. Man, that would be too awesome. The perfect mix of a EDC gun AND a bedside gun. I would get a 43x if it did, but I don't see it replacing my 43 for EDC and the 19 for homedefense duty.

I'll stick with my G 26

[@ceasarcivanni338]

i prefer my g27 frame with a g19 gen 4 slide and lone wolf adapter.

I really like that blue vism tool very nice I carry my 43 with the smallest extension it doesn’t add any rounds but I can get enough of my pinkie on it to make all the difference and I only carry it when I can’t carry a 19 or 17 I’m a skinny guy in FL so the grip size is important to me

[@tigerman3]

Just got a G48 MOS. Nice pistol!

[@jimcollins5440]

Recommendation,,,,,, hollowpoints or flat nose for glock 9mm 43x , holsters kidney style??

Love your reference to School House Rock! Love! Love! Love!

[@elchicano187]

That’s amazing 😳 how you can just switch the slides and they fit on each gun

[@alwaysdream7642]

Loving the new intro! Rocking out!! lol

[@hermannnavarro1287]

Excellent reviews!! I have a question. Is the G42 the best concealed .380 pistol?

[@sootch00]

Thanks Hermann. The G42 is not the smallest .380 but it is very concealable and enjoyable to take to the range. I'm a fan.

[@jonesperkins1382]

I got an option for a black slide, cerakote lol or if you really use your weapon a lot. Rust-Oleum

[@bigbluemsp]

G43 for me because I carry it as my back up gun at work on my ankle. The others are just too big to try to conceal with a longer grip.

[@gregorypazo6446]

I prefer the full grip to include my pinky, which doesn't need additional extensions to include that digit....the capacity thing is an entirely different discussion.
