    I see your point about this gun being too big for a pocket gun. Why I like this gun is because I carry around a G17 all day on duty, so off duty I usually carry a G19 in an holster on my hip. But I like to carry often inside the waistband, which the G19 gets a little heavy and thick carrying IWB. So the thinner, lighter G43X is perfect for IWB carry, with 10+1 rounds vs. 6+1 if I went with the G43. So that's why I like it. Love your videos, keep it up.

    Thanks for reviewing the 43X. I've been an LEO for 23 years and a dept range officer for 17 years. I've carried quite a few different firearms over the years and carry both a G19 and a G43. I bought the 43X and it fits me very well and is now a belt gun for me. It's the perfect fit for me. I've always been partial to the 1911 and the 43X has a bit of a Glock x 1911 feel to it. 11 rounds along with either 1 or 2 spare mags on my belt suits me fine. I did put Glock night sights on mine (I have seen polymer front sights damaged on carry guns). So far I have 500 rounds thru mine with no issues (115,124,147). I don't expect everyone to like the 43X, but it's one heck of a compact pistol....... As always...great review.

    • @hickok45

      The more I shot the G43x and the G48, the less I was inclined to be too critical of them. Regardless of whether they fit exactly what I want for myself, I just kept getting the feeling that these things would be very popular. Regardless of all the negatives I talked about, there's no way to ignore that both are handy little pistols that are not too heavy or two thick. And like all Glocks, they go bang every time.

You’ve gotta have faith in your carry firearm! For me, the 365 grip is a dealbreaker, especially since it requires me to shift my grip for a clean mag drop.

    I ordered a Glock 43x with factory night sights, from Buds, 2 weeks ago, the Thursday, right before Christmas. It arrives at my local FFL, today, on the 2nd. I own several firearms and love almost all of them. I also own a lot of Glocks, and prefer them as my conceal and carry firearm over any other firearm. The department that I work for uses Glock 22’s, and seeing the durability and reliability of Glocks, is why I trust them.
    I bought a Sig Sauer P365, about 2 months ago. It was either in the end of October, or the beginning of November. Since owning it, I have had nothing but issues with it and don’t trust it. I originally bought my P365, for my wife to carry. She has really small hands and my firearms that I own that have double stack magazines feel very uncomfortable to her. So now, I will have her try the 43x out. If she likes it, then that will be her carry firearm. If not, then I’ll keep on looking for something for her. I will also have my daughter try it out too. If the 43x, also feels good in her hand, then I’ll buy her one as well. But, she won’t be able to carry it until she turns 21.
    With what Hickok, said about the 43x, being to big to carry as a pocket gun and it being a belt carry only firearm, I have to disagree with him. This is a great firearm for women. The thinner, single stack frame, make it easier for them to carry. It allows them to have a full grip, and allows them to carry at least 10 rounds and eventually, 15 rounds, when Shield Arms releases their S-15, 43x metal magazine. With the 43x, you also still get the long term Glock reliability and durability. But for women, they can conceal the firearm in a purse, ankle holster if they are wearing pants, inside the waste band either on the hip or appendix carry. In their vehicle, that may be a smaller vehicle and have very minimal storage etc.. Personally, I think Glock did an outstanding job on both the 43x, and 48. I cannot wait to get mine at then end of the day today, after I get off work. Then this weekend, assuming that the weather is nice, I will be taking my wife and daughter to the range and am going to start training them.

    I see the 43X and the 48 as a more Ideal IWB carry gun because it is thinner yet it has a relatively full size length grip for a more positive grip when unholstering under stress. For people that are in a 10 round restricted state it is a less printing option to the G19 for concealment.

    Don't forget conceal carry. Lots of us carry appendix or inside the belt on our hips. For those uses, double stacked pistols aren't as comfortable. The 43X looks like the perfect fit. 11 rounds, thin enough to be worn inside the belt and a grip long enough to get a good hold on it.

    as someone that likes to carry IWB because i dont like wearing a lot of warm clothes (and if I do, i remove my coat while indoors) i find the glock 43 a great iwb carry gun. now, im not 6’8, i am 5’8 with an above average build. I carried the 27 for some time IWB and it was too fat to have wedged inbetween my waist and pants. i can see this being a good IWB conceal carry for people that want more capacity and the reliability of the glock. the longer grip will print more easily under a tshirt, but that is up to you if you want more rounds. for me, i cant get to pocket carry until we venture into the realm of 380s which i dont really care for. a decent compromise between the 19 and 43.

I had watched several review videos & thought it was the one I wanted, but actually putting it in my hand was what removed any doubt. I still LOVE this weapon! In my experience, if you ask 100 people, you'll get at least 95 different answers. You have to go with what feels right to you, what fits, has the features you like, etc. We all know the top 'firearm rules', but the one everyone forgets is personal preference. My son doesn't really like my 43x. It doesn't fit his big ole man hands too well. My best suggestion would be simply to hold several & really pay attention to how they feel. This probably isn't much help, but I hope it is. You will preform better with what is truly comfortable. Good luck to you.

    Internet people claiming hickok45 is a Glock "fan(man)" haven't been paying attention. Among the many themes of Hickok's channel (safety, education, proper firearm handling, defending the 2nd Amendment, smoking pots and destroying garbage sodas 2 liters at a time) there has been a running theme of his quest for the best combination of small+light+capacity+reliability for a carry gun. His fandom of Glock comes from the fact that Glock has long been the best combination of small+light+capacity+reliability. The P365 has changed that (assuming they worked out the reliability part).

    Great review. You pointed out something I wish others would grasp, meaning there's no such thing the right gun for everyone, just the right gun for you. My first gun was a Glock 19, but I quickly realized it was too large for me to carry. It is now my home defense gun. Next I got a Taurus PT 709 Slim, but also found it to larger for me to carry. It became my vehicle gun and has been as reliable as my Glock 19, over 5,000 rounds without failure. However, I've now replaced it with the Glock 43X. Obviously it is reliable, but clearly more accurate than the 709. As for me, my EDC is the Taurus Spectrum, over 2,500 rounds without failure. Many would hate it, but for me, it is the right EDC. So my word to new shooters is find the right gun/guns for you. If it isn't right for you, you simply want practice or carry. Thanks for your wise review of the 43X.

    I love hickok45 but this time I think he failed to consider the convenience of this gun for someone who wants to appendix carry and the fact that its slightly thicker than a G43. The comfort of nearly a full size gun but in a package that makes moving throughout your day and bending over much easier. Also, if you do appendix carry, you can carry a G43x with an extra mag in a slim and spread out holster by someone like tier1concealed and have more comfort than appendix carrying a G19 or an M&P9 2.0 Compact without an extra mag. So 16 vs 21 rounds with more comfort. Also, the Sig 365 feels like holding a 2X2, its some what square in grip shape. Yes the 365 is small, but I'd rather a gun that will comfortably shoot 21 rounds guaranteed vs uncomfortably might shoot 25. He is always honest in his opinion. Also, he does have big ol' hands and big ass pockets so it seems like his optimal carry set-up is different than people who prefer appendix rigs and/or can't fit a g43 in the pocket and still have a quick draw.

The arrogance of your post is troll worthy, so bravo.

    We got them in today at work. Its Glock's respoonse to the M&P Shield 2.0. Lol. It looks cool and actually feels really good in the hand. I havent shot one yet. But I definately liked it. Youve gotta see the 43X in person, pictures dont do it justice. And im not even a "glock guy".

    you mention pocket carry and say its too big because of the longer grip. then you say its too small for side holster carry because you can carry something bigger. you failed to mention the true purpose of this gun.. single stack weapons or even single and a half lol is primarily for in the waistband conceal carry. for two reasons . 1. less printing. 2. comfort... anyways. to get 10+1 on a skinny almost single stack carry piece is amazing.. my g19 is bulky and prints easily. it also isnt super comfortable. i usually carry my springfield xds. but i want more capacity and this weapon is significantly more... im buying one in the next week or two. anyways. you are still the man and i watch all of your videos. just wanted to highlight that one flaw in your critique. have a great day good sir....

      Exactly. I am considering this firearm for that reason. My G23 and G27 are alot more uncomfortable then my G43.

      I just went from my g19 gen5 to the new G43x and I love it so much. I was having the same problems you were. With my 43x, i can actually carry 3 o'clock while sitting down and driving fairly comfortably. Best decision i've made when it comes to conceal carry.

      You are going to need a pretty loose or thick shirt for this not to print. Once they get so big that you can't wear a good fitting T-shirt in summer, it's too big IMO. In winter, you may as well go with the 19. I think he is saying he has guns that do everything this gun is designed to do better. This is like a jack of all trades master of none sized gun. To each his own though. You are the carrier and your best self defender. You'll be first on scene...

      @Josh Neff While driving, I hate even having my G42 on me. I put that in the console in a car or on the floor in work trucks. I don't feel like I could get it out fast enough with a seat belt on and all that. Plus, sometimes it pinches me.

    I looked for this video because I just got the Glock 43X American Flag collector edition to replace my Glock 19 for daily concealed carry but I noticed that I tend to pull left too! So I am not alone! I do love the 43X, 500 rounds now with no issue. Thank you :)

    17:30... Hickok says he hasn't really heard anything at the gun shops about people bringing in the P365 with problems nowadays. I'm a Sig fan (I carry a P938). If you have a warranty issue with a Sig firearm, Sig emails you a shipping label and you ship the firearm from a FedEx facility. For that reason, people working in gun shops may not be aware of how many people (if any) are still having problems with the P365.

    • @hickok45
      @hickok45  5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      True, but gun shops hear about what's going on, just as we all do on the Internet on videos and in forums. People tend to share their experiences wherever they are, especially in gun shops. Plus, I tend to trust what I hear in face-to-face conversations, even second hand, more than some of the Internet chatter.

    • @letsgorangers5264
      @letsgorangers5264 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      hickok45, yep. Don't get me wrong, if I didn't have so much invested in my P938 between the gun itself, holsters, spare magazines, and a magazine pouch I would have bought a P365 myself. Keep up the good work with the videos; we always enjoy when you post a new one.

    Surprised at how Out of the Box Accurate" mine is. Great trigger too. Like it MORE that Sig's 365. The 2-Tone color kinda grows on ya. They DO now make a 43X ALL BLACK.
