Local shop has this for $599.99.

G43X with Shadow Systems War Poet barrel and compensator (per the tag). I'm not looking to buy it, just thought it was interesting to see.

I think I have shot all the Glock style micro comped guns made to date. Of them all, the CR920P produces the least amount of recoil on a 43X frame.

To bad the slide is not complete.

Here is a CR920P slide on a FDE micro Dagger.

The slide to the gun I posted or the SS slide in general?

I think I'm lost

Been interested in comped 43x lately. This thread is relevant.

This was at GT Distributors in Dallas if you're a local.  It was there last week but I did not pay attention if it was still there when I was there earlier this week. I'll probably swing by in the morning and I will update this if you're interested if they have it.

The slide to comp is not complete. Its missing the slide. See my pic above. If someone put a 43 slide not a 43x slide with that comp it would look flush. 43 slide has a flat nose.

The SS barrel is a tri-lug. The comp only works with that barrel.

@txgunguy

You might want to wait. Radian is coming out with the Ram Jet for the 43x sometime next year.

I like the look of those. I'm not sure if slightly less recoil is worth the enormous cost.

Its not. But I have been on a quest. If money is a concern I suggest the HA43. It works very well. AIM has barrels for 45 bucks iirc.

Knowing that location and their tags, I’m gonna say it’s used.  The one mag part supports that theory.

Uh, yeah, forgot to mention that but I figured everyone would know a Frankenbuild like this would be used


The used gun case is always fun.

Looking again, that is what I posted. It's the SS barrel and comp plus the tag has that written on it as well.

I'm stopping by in a few minutes, I'll see if it's still there, just for giggles.


Edit

It's gone.

Harrington Arms. You would be looking for the HC43 comp.

I look at my 43X a few times a week, it is bone stock, down to the sights, and I keep saying this is an ideal pistol to upgrade and customize.  This discussion has me thinking again

Update for anyone interested.

I figured I would try an Aimsurplus JTT barrel for my 43X. Read lots of reviews about them for the 19 model that were overwhelmingly favorable.

I'm quite impressed. It's a noticeable difference in muzzle flip. I put 250 rounds through it yesterday. On  my 3rd round, I had no ignition. Since it was a new barrel, I did not clear the malfunction as I wanted to see if the gun was out of battery, etc. Gun was in battery, and there was a clear primer strike on the round. 115gr S&B for reference. I loaded the round in the next mag and it fired.

After that, the barrel ran flawless. I shot 147gr HST, 124gr +p HST, Winchester active duty, and 115gr S&B. This thing is a huge win for $60. Reduces flip noticeably without making the gun any longer.

I've been considering a PMM barrel and comp for my 43x. But I kinda want to shoot a 43x comped before I spend the money with whoever.

You ever shoot a 48?  It's surprisingly similar.

Shoot it 25-50yds any? I have one for 43x and 19 that have not impressed me accuracy wise. 43 is ok, about 6" at 25yds, most in 5" or less but throws a couple shots per mag opening up over 6".

19 is lucky to hit a 9x20" plate 50% at 25yds.

Then the sharp angle at the top of the feed ramp and horizontal tool marks caused fail to feeds. Smoothed and polished that out and the feed ramp which helped but after 6-700rds of it not making it past 50-60rds without a malfunction of some sort and errant shots I'm calling it. Bought a second to try and it looks to be just as inaccurate.

19 is lucky to hit a 9x20" plate 50% Of the time at 25yds. This one was 100% reliable.

Both work great at taking a little snap off the muzzle flip. This is why I wanted them to work.

Crown in all 3 looks like crap. Very rough and uneven.

No, but I don't normally practice shooting my handguns at 50 yards. I had it out to 15 yards (indoor range) and didn't notice any difference in accuracy from the OEM barrel. Didn't measure the groupings, fist size maybe? The crowns on mine look great. No sloppy machining on them anywhere that I can see.
