    Pretty sweet shooter. If nothing else I'll get plenty of tactical reload practice, 6 rnds is ... wow. Anyone find mags in stock, brownells back ordered for several months now.

    One of the reasons I like the single stacks is the false sense of spending less money on ammo due to more time spent on reloading.

    Finally got my hands on one thanks to free state.

    Rented a G43 G26 and a Shield. With only spending 100 rounds between the three and a rather quick in and out, I have to say shield last, the 43 close to the shield and the 26 pretty far out front.

    I like the 43, I just liked the 26 a lot more. Most likely pick up a 26 soon and maybe the 43 down the road a few years if I can find a good deal on one.

    FIY, haven't shot any of those 3 guns before today.

    I own all three. The Glock's are great. The Shield is good but I don't need it now that I have the 43.

    Extension? Add capacity? Or just the finger extension?

    Nate, By the way Penelope thanks you and Brutus for babysitting her Daddy's new gun until it could be released.

    I guess I need to shot both. If I find a shield cheap Ill probably buy it
    I have both, selling my Shield (fired less than 100 rounds), along with two holsters (ankle & IWB). PM me if interested.

    Finally got out to AGC with mine today to wring her out.


    First three mags (18 rounds) at 10 yards.

    Ran 274 total rounds through just as she came out of the box. Combination of WWB, Federal and S&B with a couple mags of Hornady Critical Defense and Speer Gold Dots as well.

    Going right into the rotation.....:D

    Shooting my friend's G43 convinced me to buy one as well. While it does require a little more attention to shoot accurately when compared to my G19, I do like how thin and light it is.
