Glock 43x First Mag Review | This Gun Was Trash Until...
About this video
Colion reviews the Glock 43X, a gun he initially dismisses as uninteresting due to its 10-round capacity. His perspective changes dramatically when he tests Shield Arms’ S15 magazines, which he says increase capacity to 15 rounds (or 20 with extensions) in the same compact frame. Colion argues these aftermarket magazines transform the 43X from what he calls ’trash’ into a viable carry gun that now competes with his preferred pistols.
Key takeaways
- Colion considers the stock Glock 43X mediocre due to its 10-round magazine capacity, despite acknowledging it shoots well
- According to Colion, Shield Arms S15 magazines dramatically change the gun’s viability by offering 15-round capacity (20 with extensions) without increasing grip width
- Colion teaches that magazine capacity is a critical factor in choosing a carry gun, and reports the S15 magazines performed reliably through his testing
