Here is my honest experience with the 43X, I noticed out of the box a metal to metal grind when pulling back and forth the slide, I tore it down cleaned and lubed per Glocks specifications. I went to the range, loaded 10 rounds to the magazine and noticed that the mag had a minor issue locking in. I chambered the first round and after the fire I experienced a jamb. Cleared the jamb and did not have an issue after that. NOTE: The range master assisted me with the clearing and asked if I lubed it and I confirmed his suspension. I also own a Glock 19 and am familiar with lube requirements and I have not had any jamb issues with it (full mag). Back to the 43… I continued the range shoot with 3 more full mags with no issue. I since have shot at least 200 rounds with no issue. I also was told during my CCW class that magazine loading should be one cartridge less than max due to spring pressure, which I tend to agree with when using a brand new mag. I chose this model over the Sig Sauer P365 do to the simplicity, handling and that I enjoyed the Glock 19. After a couple hundred rounds I noticed during tear down that the grinding issues (in my opinion) is due to the slide guides on the frame, it appears the corners are sharp and the slide guides have a slight curve corners up. It also appears they wear down and the grind feel goes away.
Overall I feel my “mini me” Glock 43X is a great starter for conceal carry and getting that experience as a new handgun user. BTW attend a CCW class in your area, well worth the cost!
I also want to extend my thanks to Top Gun for making this newbie feel comfortable, answering all my questions and explaining the Glock tear down procedure. It’s all about customer service during and after the sale.
