IMO The perfect glock was the G43 with a G48 Slide, you can add a +2 extension or use those ETS 9-12rnd mags with a "X-Grip" to make it essentially the same as the G43X. When you want to go full conceal just use the stock mag, when you want to shoot better at the range use the extension.. Cant wait for them to make a G48 threaded barrel and custom slides

Here in CT, the 43x makes a very good choice for carry. Rather than being a true sub-compact, it's a compact with the 'wasted space' taken out of it since we're limited to 10-rds in the mag. Hit's a nice sweet spot in terms of smallness and shoot ability. I originally smirked at the idea but after picking one up and handling, I think it's a really good rendition. Just wish they'd make it with a black slide as I hate that color combination.

Bought my first firearm this year. M&P 9 2.0C. What a lovely gun. And my son's M&P Shield is just about as good. Shot my friend's Glocks. They just don't feel as good. So with many rounds down range and the finalizing of my LTC, it's time for my first EDC. After handling and trigger testing Sig, Springfield, Glock 43x, and the magnificent M&P Shield...I ordered the 43x. It didn't feel as good as the Shield to me, but it felt pretty good. The bigger grip, narrow stature, and larger capacity sold me. Especially knowing that there is an aftermarket 15-round mag that is still flush with the mag well. The bad sights weren't an issue as I ordered night sights anyway. I really didn't think I would ever be a Glock owner. But here I am.

The G-43 with the plus 1 butt plate cures three problems, #1 better grip with room for the pinky but the better reason is the easier draw that but plate provides, if you can't easily pull it out fast every time, what good is it, the other is of course 7 +1 for carry is fine, carry an extra 7 mag and you are at 15 when 2 or 3 rounds is usually plenty for self defense. Keeping the gun lighter and smaller but easier to draw, the G-43 with the +1 butt plate is my favorite carry gun. BTW, more rounds is also more weight and that can diminish the times you carry and that's not good. Don't make your carry gun into something it's not supposed to be. Switch out the sights too.

1 year later. Purchased a 43 with 10 round extension. Couldnt live with my pinking hanging out and the 10 round mag defeated the purpose of the design. Picked up a 43x recently after SA finally released their 15 round mag. Current setup is TFX Pro sights, Talon applied grip, Pryamid trigger and match grade threaded barrel that adds about an inch in length over all. Threw a LaserMax slide spring laser on because I could. The trigger allows for faster smoother pulls. In the end I am shooting 4 inch groups at 10 yards as fast as I can pull the trigger. Granted I am an excellent shot to begin with and this is with top tier ammo ( Gold dot) but this gun shows my weakness and not any on its end. The only down side is with the mags. They didnt have any of the coated in stock and the ones I got do not eject on their own when the clip is empty. The only thing I can think of as to why you might carry something different is if you wanted to carry a different caliber. Otherwise I dont think it gets better than this.

Cooler weather when I can wear jeans I will carry G19. My 26 is now a second house gun as I can use the larger mags in it and it is still comfortable to shoot. I am really surprised how much lighter it feels in the holster, I was not expecting so much of a difference compared to the 26.

365 is JUNK sorry but it's not just a personal opinion.
@barefootbob12695 жыл бұрын
Ya the Sig does have a couple things a glock doesn't such as sights oh and that self destruct mode. Most people I know that like the p365 don't shoot them. Mine made two trips for repair one just before a 1000 rounds and the second with about another 2000 more. It was sold after it's second return.

I purchased a 43x and am glad I did. However, have any of you noticed the difference in slide smoothness? To me, when I rack the slide, it feels completely different than any other glock I've ever touched. To me, the slide feel comes across as feeling cheap and unrefined. My glock 19 feels like the slide is on finely crafted ball berrings. I have polished everything possible, but it has made little difference. The pistol functions flawlessly (that's really all that truly matters) but it just annoys me for some reason. Has anyone else experienced this??? Any feedback will be appreciated.

Damn i changed my mind in this completely. The feel in the hand sold me. I bought one on Saturday it will be my running mate. Yep it is slippery so stippling and maybe a comp are in the future and like u said then it might be the perfect glock.

I think a few of these went out the door with the wrong front or rear sight installed. I know at least two other really good shooters with the same issues I describe, but you’re also not the only one that said the sights co-witness and line up POA/POI.

The grip being longer on the 43x is what prints and the pinky dangle doesn't bother me on my 43 , extra mags can be carried easily .Why , why , why am I going to get a 43x today ?
@willo77342 жыл бұрын
I’ve never been a Glock guy. I’ve been carrying a Sig or a 1911 for a while. Recently I tried the 43x and I love it. It feels like I’m not carrying anything and is easy to shoot. The trigger isn’t bad but I might get an aftermarket one at some point. Great gun though, it’s now my EDC.

Ain't noticed a lot of police officers carried a Glock 48 in Black same size as Glock 19 except it shoots only 10 rounds and a magazine one in the chamber where we lightweight it's about an inch longer than the 43x I think it's more balance and your hosted then the other Glock but it's up to you you have to check both of them out but the 48 is really a great gun if you could find them they sell like hotcakes 👍🇦🇹🇺🇸💯

43x my carry gun, know why? you run around all day with a weapon on your side it'll not only throw your balance off some but will sometimes cause soreness. Do sports with say Taurus 380 8 rnd. mag. still so very light will fit in almost anywhere like a bike bag or simply IWB if you can stand it in your gut running.

for printing i wear an eyeglass soft case with a carry string around my neck with a long slim flashlight hanging on it. Its small and lightweight but people generally are looking at my glass case and hardly look toward my hip. I carry between 2:30 and 3:00.

I'm starting to like the 43x. I carry a 43 with a +2 baseplate, making the handle about the same length as the 19 and 43x, but it only holds 8 rounds. I do like that when I need deeper concealment I can put a flush fitting 6 round mag in it and conceal it better than a 43x or 19 could ever be concealed. The follower in the magazines for the 43 are ridiculously tall. If you sand them down so they're about half their original height, you can fit 7 in the 43 magazines and they still work reliably.

Shield Arms sells 15 round mags for this gun. I'm going to also order the metal mag release since the mags are steel. You're excitement is legit. I absolutely love this pistol. I ordered mine with night sights and a black slide. I'm not into silver.

I ran into a guy, we started talking about guns... He pulled out his glock 43x, and I've felt glock before although nice, never really found one that really said I want it... My hands are big, and finding a lightweight gun that carries easily in 9mm.can be tough... This gun felt perfect... Fantastic design...great trigger. Still has 10 round capacity... I want one now.... 😊
