We have 3-4 Glock 43's. Wife carries one at work in an Akle Glove.
As far as the G43 rifle I got one 25 yrs ago and foolishly traded it off 20 years ago... |

Why would there be? There is Hellcat, and Sig 365.

Carried mine for a very long time but it's since been usurped by a 48. I can't bring myself to get rid of it.. Even though the 48 is great to carry, it's funny how small the 43 feels when I do put it on.

The G43 has been my daily carry for 3 years. I carry OWB with 2 extra mags.

I’d rather have my p365. Or a g26 that takes a shitload of other mags

I believe the 43X has made the 43 somewhat superfluous.

I have a love hate relationship with my 43X MOS. I bought it last fall. It does carry well. It feels good in my hand. It isn't as accurate as I would like. I average one malf for every 100-150 rounds, using factory mags. That happens usually after I warm it up a bit, double tap drills and the like.
I have been carrying my G19 instead. With warm weather coming, I will probably carry my old Shield until I am satisfied with a replacement. The irony is I chose the 43X for Glock's reputation of reliability. I passed over 365 because I didn't trust Sig's QC. Maybe a FCD plate will help. If I can make it work, great. Otherwise I'm just throwing good money after bad. I have come to the conclusion that I generally dislike shooting micro nines. |

It's almost always either the 43 or 43X for me. The 43X with PSA 15 rd mags is awfully hard to beat.

I liked mine. After picking up a 43X a few years back, I just preferred the 43X and what it offered over my 26 and 43. At least for how I carry.

My main issue with my P80 G43 is that it sometimes fails to go back into battery. It strips the round and starts to put it in the chamber, but then stops. Not sure if it’s a mag catch location issue, or something else, but I’d never carry it at this point. It’s all Glock parts, which is the usual fix, but no joy. |

Couldn't loose my 43 fast enough after getting a 43x. Just couldn't shoot the 43 well (or at all) with big dumb hands.

 Attached FileIve carried one for years in a TT pocket holster or in a hybrid. I do want an Uber carry gun. Problem is I've tried a few of the newer ones and I've liked them all a lot. Even the Hellcat. First world issues |

Either g43x or g43 frame and then I have an aftermarket slide with full size rm06.

No, but my Mossberg MC1SC takes G43 mags, has a better trigger, and fits a lot of G43 holsters so...and oh yeah...made in Texas.

I have come to the conclusion that I generally dislike shooting micro nines. Maybe it's your grip. I found that my Glock 43X liked to slip around in my hands a lot when firing. I added a rubber grip sleeve and now it's perfect. You might try a Talon stick on grip or grip sleeve.  Attached File |

If it doesn't say "G21" and "45ACP" on the slide, nope, no love.
