    .380, for when they don't make a 9mm.

        I got the 43 yesterday and I like it so far. It will replace my shield and xds as my small conceal carry,

          Glock made a mistake in making it 6 + 1 and not equal to the xds and shield

            But the thing is 6 ounces lighter than the xds and a few ounces lighter than the shield. I'll use that weight for a spare mag.

            I've run almost 200 rounds through it since yesterday. A few hundred more and I will be ready to declare it the better gun of the three for me.

            I say this as a guys who owns all three, and will continue to.


            G43
            xds
            Shield


            In that order. Never really got to be a fan of the shield, but they are cheap price wise and aren't worth selling. Will probably make it my car gun.

              So it has a 6 rd magazine? Why not just carry an air weight revolver? It's more reliable, weighs less, and it's more powerful?

                  Idk. I get two more rounds and a slimmer frame out of the xds. Better trigger. At such a low round count, one round is make or break for me.

                  And sc281, to me carrying a g19 or xds doesnt feel much different weight wise. All about the belt.

                    don't get me wrong. I usually carry my g19. You gave an argument an I was simply giving a counter.

                        Shot 4 different small frame 9's today... P938, g43, xds, and a Taurus slim.

                        Ruled out the slim and the xds....

                        Still torn on the other two. Shot @ 7yds, one mag rapid, another mag taking my time.

                          ....So you had owned a gun for one day and determined that you liked it immediately? On what grounds?

                          For me to come to the conclusion that I like a gun, I need to shoot the fuck out of it first instead of just look at the damn thing or carry it to 7-11/BWW once.

                            200 rounds is a decent indicator. But BWW carry is a must
