I went to purchase a Glock 26 and left with the 43x. I really preferred the way the 43x felt in my hand. I think the 26 is a GREAT firearm but I went 43x.
@blazeaglory 4 жыл бұрын
I agree. I love how the 43 feels concealed. Compared to my 19, it's so much better for EDC. Plus you can add a extender to the magazine and get a few extra rounds and better grip. The Glock 26 was just too thick for me and after adding an extension on the magazine/ grip, I thought to myself, "might as well just carry a G19 at this point". I would choose a 43 over a 26 any day and that's not saying three 26 is a bad handgun, it's just not something I would carry

Love the vid, and some of these comments are spot on. A lot of us are Glock folks, we have 19's, 26's, 43's, and everything in between. The 43x came out and we couldn't see what the need was, especially if we had others already. And we didn't want to like it. We tried hard not to buy it. We couldn't justify it. And then, we felt it. We shot it. We bought it. We got buyers remorse. But it wouldn't go away. We couldn't stay away from it. And we found we were carrying it over and over again, until our prior EDC's got dusty. Sigh. Love the stupid thing. Accurate, softer than the 43, easy to carry...

Firstly, I absolutely love your video reviews! 🌟 Secondly, you are the reason I was interested in trying the Walther PPQ over a decade ago as my very first gun. I did finally try it last year and decided that gun was not for me for my first firearm to purchase. After trying the 43X, I knew that was my gun. It fits my small hands very well because the grip wasn’t too wide (single stack), yet the grip was long enough and it didn’t hurt my hands when shooting. I did decide to go with the 43X because the 43 handle was too short for my hands. I cannot stand a gun that is shorter than my grip, I don’t feel like I have a good enough “handle” on it when the grip is too short. 😝 I cannot thank you enough for your awesome and honest reviews! 🤩👍

@@justsomemincedgarlic You would probably be a good person to ask this question. I've recently acquired my own 43X, and am obviously intending to get some S15 mags to carry this gun with at some point. Along with that, I'll get their metal mag release, which is where my question comes in. Did you notice that the metal mag release does any damage to the original plastic magazines when you use them? I know Shield Arms says it won't, and their reputation for these magazines has been pretty truthful, but I figured I'd ask around just to be sure. The problem seems to be that everybody who buys the 15 rounders doesn't go back to the factory mags, but I've already got seven of them for GSSF matches, so I'm crossing my fingers that I'll just be able to use them and the S15s interchangeably when I need to.
@justsomemincedgarlic 4 жыл бұрын
Hassik I’ve had no problems with the metal mag release and the stock mags. Idk how it’ll be a year down the road, but so far so good. I’m sure there will be some wear and tear with metal on poly, but I put about 1,000 rounds through the metal mags before I changed the mag release and it was still functioning properly and I’ve put maybe a few hundred through the poly mags and metal mag release and had zero problems too. I think it’s not as big of a deal as one may think but still a good idea to change the release for longevity

I have a 43, and despite small hands, The G43 just didnt feel right. A Hogue grip sleeve helped some, but seemed to exadurate the "two finger grip", and it just felt more awkward to draw. I handled a G43x yesterday and was impressed. The width seems perfect. A Glock 19 without the block feel. (Everytime I switch from the CZ to the Glock 19 I still get hit by its blockiness). Its pretty funny, as just like Hickock I was skeptical about the g43x when it came out, and in re-researching it even stumbled accross one of my own comments dissing it, lol.

#1 rule of firearm acquisition... Personal preference. I ADORE my 43x. I wanted a Glock for many years but felt I couldn't afford one... Until this one came out. I made it happen. It just fits my (not dainty, girly girl) hand perfectly. I'm more comfortable & confident with it than any other gun I have ever held/shot. The only thing that comes close to a complaint is that I have to tape my trigger finger for anything past about 50 rounds because it starts to hurt a little, but hey, what's a little tape on your finger when it means you can keep shooting? (Yeah, I'm plagued with dishpan hands.) Just wanted to throw a female perspective out there. I'd highly recommend it for ladies. I love mine so much!

I own every 1911 in all calibers ,was totally against Glock ,buddy of mine got a 42 when they came out I shoot it with him ,now I own 4 Glocks and carry the g43.

@@moistexistence3090 the 80% Glock models 17 and 19 are based on the 1911 "lower" and grip. I built the G19 80% and it feels great! Others who have held it have said the grip itself is a tiny bit bulky but I think it's perfect for ppl with larger hands or who prefer a bigger grip. So with the 80% builds, most of them you get the best of both worlds.

Awesome video as always! I was already having trouble choosing between the 43X and the 19 Gen 5 as my first gun and then you brought up the different holsters lmao. It's going to be a long night!

You just know if it's the right gun for you when you pick it up. That's why I picked the 43X. Two years and still love it for EDC, appendix and pocket.

I got a glock 23 because of you and bought a 43x a few weeks back and now watching this video I feel better about the purchase. Keep up the great and informational videos my guy.
@kpatt2006 2 жыл бұрын
Did you need this video to feel batter about your purchase of the 43x? I just got back from the range and after trying the p365xl, and accidently pinching my palm skin when inserting the mag, I realized I wanted a little more grip length for my big hands. The 43x grip seems just a little thicker and longer than the p365xl grip while still being very concealable.

I purchased the G43x and I absolutely love it. I was carrying the G45 prior but wanted something obviously smaller for appendix carry. Zero complaints about this!
@randall6666 4 жыл бұрын
Appendix left hand carry for me ....43X is so comfortable with IWB carry...and longer grip is what makes it work! Getting in and out of the car is comfortable too. Fun to shoot...no doubt about it!

Love the information Hickock. Bought 43x yesterday, shot it today and love it. Much more comfortable than the 17 gen. 1 I've been packing since 1987. I love it too but man what a sweet shooter and carry gun the 43X is.
