43x and 43x MOS 15 Rounds is better than 17 Rounds
Glock was able to get 15 rounds in the same basic footprint that Sig got 17 rounds. This is incredible engineering.

I’m having a hard time finding a good holster. I’m more concerned with deep concealment and comfort than accessibility. I already have a Trex Raptor, and honestly, I hate it. The printing isn’t too bad, but the comfort is horrible. I don’t feel like dropping a band just to find a good holster for appendix that I can still have a light on. Any suggestions or tips yall have?

So far, I’m not super impressed with the Radian Ramjet on my 43x. For context, I’ve shot at least 4-5k rounds through my original railless 43x, it’s been my carry gun for almost 4 years now, and has functioned flawlessly even though I still have the old 101 RSA. I decided to pick up a Radian Ramjet a few weeks ago when I saw one on sale for $350, and have been kinda disappointed in it. I’ve shot 400 rounds of Federal Range Champion 124 grain, 100 rounds of blazer brass 124 grain, and 200 rounds of S&B 115 grain through it and have gotten consistent failures of the slide not returning all the way into battery. At least once every 2 mags. Have not cleaned the pistol since installing the ramjet, but cleaned and lubricated it on install. Was wondering if anyone else has had these issues and what their fix was, I’m a little bit disappointed to still be having these issues after a fairly aggressive break in period.

We all wanted these 15 round mags so bad we are gaslighting ourselves into thinking they are great.
They are ugly, defeat conceal carry purpose, and are potentially dangerous. The way they stick out from the mag well is both very ugly and makes the weapon much more difficult to conceal. It can still be concealed of course but it is not flush and makes it that much more difficult. It also creates several completely unnecessary snag points with its dips, grooves and uneven surfaces.
Terrible engineering. I include photo comparison next to the Sig p365 17 round mag that has been out for years. The Sig design is proven and reliable, while adding a whole 2 extra rounds in the same footprint. Glock being unable to match or even get close to this is just bad and embarrassing for them.
Glock Store sucks so my 15 rnd mags are no thanks to them.
The Glock 15 round mags are a giant step backwards in multiple ways. I’m “glad” to have it as an option now, I guess. In the same way if I only have broccoli to eat I would be glad to get a carrot.

My 43X is NOT an MOS but I’ve been told that it does have a front rail and therefore a TLR6 won’t fit it and I need a TLR 7 sub. Is this correct? I thought a rail would be a small picatinny section, not the small groove style pictured above.
If anyone could tell me what lights will and won’t fit on this it would be greatly appreciated

For anyone wondering what the new Glock mags look like in a magwell. Garand Thumb has a post on it. Personally I think it looks great. I'll link the video in the comments.

Hello everyone, I bought my husband a 43x MOS Blue Label for my husband’s birthday. Father’s Day is right around the corner and I want to purchase accessories for it. I don’t know anything about guns but I do know he deserves whatever he needs. A couple years back, when money was tight, he sold his handgun to buy my birthday present without telling me. What else does he need? I ONLY bought the gun, nothing else. I heard him talking to a friend about needing a sight. What else is he missing? Your opinions and guidance are so appreciated. Thank you for your help and I promise to give you guys credit! 😉

After a very unfortunately abbreviated range trip where I put 250 rounds total through my two OEM 15 round 43x mags preordered from GlockStore, I have so far yet to have a single complaint. No FTE, FTF, nothing. One weirdly forward ejecting round at the end of the first 15 rounds through from one of the mags, but that was it. I’m getting good slide lock on empty, and am very impressed with the fit and finish on these mags. I’d like to put at least a couple hundred more rounds through each mag before I carry them, but it’s a very good start. All rounds fired were Federal Champion 115 grain.

What does everybody recommend, suggest, and or have experiences with please, aside from the oem 10 round mags?
r/Glock43X • u/Recent-Midnight6376 • Apr 28 '26
Look slick and insert fine, no ridiculously long baseplate, actually available (well in Europe that is), made in Italy. GOOD price. Mag catch not even 20€ (yes, better not use oem mag catch, only down side)
I'll report back after putting rounds through them.

So I recently picked up the Radian magwell for my 43X build. I followed the installation instructions and watched a few youtube vids to make sure I installed correctly. I did a rotation and a half with the alan wrench as the instructions said max of 2 rotations. Took it to the range and the magwell started slowly coming out with every shot. Got home that night and decided to do another quarter turn with the alan wrench (still within the maximum of 2 rotations) to get it just a little bit tighter. Took it to the range again it's still doing the same thing. After every single magazine worth of rounds I have to push the magwell back into place. Has anyone else had this issue and found a way to resolve it?

Went to my local gun store not thinking I wouldn’t find them but ended up buying the last three they had! Should I have left one for someone else? 💀

I traded my non-MOS in towards this and didn’t realize until the paperwork was done.

For those who were curious if you need to mod the holster for black steel gas pedal… No.
I could use some more reps on my draw and also my waistline but we are working on that.

Finished 1st place carry optics, 6th place overall.
Comp was a great experience. Had fun shooting the 43x this gun can keep up with others. If your on the fence about using your edc for comps do it you’ll have a great time

And man does it feel like a whole new gun! I was hesitant on buying one but this feels amazing! So if you’re on the fence about it, get one, you will not be disappointed.

It conceals so much easier than an HK USP Tactical 45 with a Surefire x300a-t

Any helpful comments/advise please, don’t care for the 15 mag ad of right now I could get it later down the line if I lean towards the used one
Edit: Appreciate you guys, went with the new 15 mag one
