The Glock 43: Late To The Party or Saving the Best for Last?

About this video

Colion reviews the Glock 43 single-stack 9mm pistol after years of anticipation. He evaluates its design, ergonomics, capacity, shooting performance, and concealment characteristics, comparing it to competitors like the M&P Shield and other micro 9mm handguns. Colion argues the gun shoots exceptionally well for its size but criticizes its limited six-round capacity, suggesting aftermarket magazine extensions are necessary to maximize its potential.

Key takeaways

  • Colion teaches that the Glock 43 handles and shoots significantly larger than its compact dimensions suggest, with manageable recoil and excellent balance
  • According to Colion, the six-round capacity is a major drawback for a gun of this size and caliber, though aftermarket baseplates can extend capacity to seven or eight rounds
  • Colion explains that the G43 excels in concealability and draw-ability compared to other micro handguns while maintaining confidence-inspiring size and shootability
