I can't wait for Bradis to get one. I want to hold one and see how it feels.
My problem is that I don't have the cash for one, and would have to sell something to get one.
My other problem is that I go back and forth on if it would be worth getting a G43. I have no problems concealing my Glock 26, and I like the fact it holds 10 rounds, and can hold a Glock 19 magazine as well. BUT, I can see how the G43 would be EASIER to conceal.
Crap. Crap. Crap.
I will be getting one as soon as I can find a blue label store with one in stock. That is as long as the feed back and reviews remain positive. I had some issues with my first 42 so I did not rush out and get on any list this time. I hope this waiting period I put myself in doesn't kill me but I am hoping it will pay off if problems start being reported. Even though it does not seem that it is going to happen.
Looks good hpclayto... If/when I get one I may have you hook me up with a holster with loops and a horizontal mag holster! Good work man!
Just curious, but why would you want to carry a gun that isn't pleasant to shoot all day?

By the end my trigger finger was rubbed raw and bleeding a bit from the serrated trigger.
My trigger finger "owie" was on the bottom of the trigger finger; I've shot other Glocks with serrated triggers and not had any issues. I think what's happening in my case with the 43 (and maybe in yours too) is that the skin is getting caught or rubbed between the tip of the trigger and the inside bottom of the trigger guard itself. I expect that opening up or clearancing that area ever so slightly would alleviate the issue.

Also, other than the trigger finger rubbing issue, I do find the 43 comfortable and enjoyable to shoot. It's all relative, I guess.

Because many people have a range gun and a carry gun and never shall the twain meet.
I look forward to holding a G43, I think it's a neat idea. I don't have problems concealing a G19 which I do carry every day, and a G26 is a breeze. I can see the appeal of a thin carry gun, but I don't think it was designed or meant to be shot all day. IMO
I disagree. They made the G42 that size so it can be shot comfortably all day.
And I have read and watched reviews of the Glock 43, and the majority of them were positive, and that it was enjoyable to shoot quite a bit.
Geez, I hope not!
From the Internet: G26, G43, G42
From me: G26, G43
The G43 is slightly shorter in height than the 26, but almost exactly the same length and of course much thinner. The shape of the G43's grip also allows it to sit lower in the hand than the 26, resulting in a gun that feels much smaller than it actually is.
The G43 uses G42 sights, so there are several night sight options already available.
We (Bradis Guns) are taking prepaid-in-full back orders on the first 10 guns we get in; there are still a couple slots open. After that, we will be selling them on a first-come, first-served basis.
HTH!
feels way smaller than a 26
I had wondered whether yanking the top round out while removing the mag was a feature unique to my P938. It's downright annoying.
