Vote! Glock 43, 43x or glock 48.

[psledoux]

Like the post says. i'm leaning toward the 48, but wanted to see what others thought.

I'm in the same conundrum. I'm also leaning toward the Glock 48 with the Shield Arms 15 round magazine. I would have to figure out which Holosun GR optic fits the slide.

You offer no good choice for me to make

Gee, one of the reasons we settled on GLOCK 9mm’s is commonality of magazines. Our G26, G19, & Ruger PCC all can use the standard 15 round double stack GLOCK G19 mags.

I see great advantage in use of one mag for everything when traveling or in emergencies.

Yes, we have other GLOCk magazines, but don’t travel w/ them.

So, no new ‘’slim’’ GLOCKS for us, thanks anyway !

D. None of the above.

You can make the 43 bigger( mag extensions) but you can't make the 43x smaller.......

 

[MTA]

The 48 balances perfectly for me. If you pocket carry a 43 is the best option though

 

[Glenn B]

You need a " not a Glock" button

I like Glocks but you are right to be fair.

My son gave me a 43 a couple years back for a backup gun. When carrying my Commander, I sometimes slip the 43 in a pocket for an emergency backup. I have a couple of 8 rd. mags for my 43, when carrying with my Commander or another pistol, I usually just go with the 6 rd. mags.

I've had all 3. I like the 48. About time for some cerakote though.

I voted for the 43x because that’s what I have. The Shield arms 15 round mags have worked well for me at the range, but I have onlycarried with the Glock mags.

1911 'nuff said.

He said a Glock, not a “Rock”

 

[BuzzinSATX]

I have all three. I carry 43X with a red dot mostly. I do like my G48 and it has a dot and a light. Both are solid shooters. I generally use them for IDPA and usually shoot clean runs…but that’s more the fact I focus on sights and trigger than speed and volume…

 

[oldag]

No glock.

So as you can tell, wrong forum to ask this question. Only a few sane folks here. The rest are a bunch of old curmudgeons when it comes to the "G" word...(Glock).

It was like asking a bunch of vegans if they wanted sausage or bacon with their eggs. It was like asking a Liberal if he preferred Trump or DeSantis.




LOL!!!


Yeah, I'm gonna get slammed...but worth it for a laugh!

PSA now has their 15 round Micro Dagger magazines on the market. They work in the G43X and G48 without changing the magazine release. I have some on order and will report when I can try them out.

I’ll wear that badge!
(Actually, most of us are past the BS stage of life and will give you a straight up answer unsweetened).

I owned (won) a Glock 17 Gen 3. For me the balance was not there and the grip reminded me of a piece of wood someone had sanded in 30 seconds at an off angle. Never shot it. Sold it to a Marine vet for a deal and never looked back. Found other semi’s that fit and balanced much better and bought them.

If it works for you, God bless.

I am an old curmudgeon, but don't have a problem with Glocks. In fact I carry one every day and I also have never liked 1911s, but that is not why I chose to carry a Glock.
I carry the Glock because it is a reliable gun that I don't care if it get scratched or the finish wears even though that has yet to happen.

As for the poll, I didn't vote because I don't like small pistols, I carry a full sized G20. it fits my hand perfectly and shoots quite well., but that's just me.

Well said.

I’m an old curmudgeon as well…but I’m not a gun snob. I’m not about folks liking or not liking any specific firearm. But OP asked a specific question for input, and folks go on a tangent that is not germane to the question is not helpful…
