The Glock 43 is a single-stack, 9mm handgun designed and manufactured by Glock Ges.m.b.H., an Austrian firearms company. The Glock 43 was first introduced in 2015 as a more compact and lightweight alternative to the popular Glock 19, which is also a 9mm handgun.
The Glock 43 was designed with the idea of being a concealed carry weapon, and its small size and lightweight make it easy to carry. The Glock 43 is 6.26 inches in overall length, 4.25 inches in height, and 1.02 inches in width. It weighs in at only 17.95 ounces unloaded. The barrel length is 3.39 inches and the magazine capacity is 6 rounds.
The Glock 43 is a striker-fired handgun, which means that the firing mechanism uses a spring-loaded firing pin that is struck by the trigger to fire the gun. This type of firing mechanism is known for its reliability and consistency, which is important in a concealed carry weapon.
The Glock 43 also features Glock's signature "Safe Action" trigger system, which is a passive safety system that automatically engages when the trigger is pulled. This system is designed to prevent accidental discharges and makes the Glock 43 a safe and reliable weapon.
The Glock 43 has been well received by the firearms community, with many praising its compact size and reliability. It is a popular choice for concealed carry, and has also been used by law enforcement and military units.
Despite its success, Glock has faced some criticism for the Glock 43's small magazine capacity, which is only 6 rounds. Some have argued that this capacity is too small for a defensive weapon, and that a larger capacity would be more appropriate. Glock has responded to this criticism by releasing extended magazines for the Glock 43, which increases the capacity to 7 or 8 rounds.
Overall, the Glock 43 has become a popular and reliable choice for concealed carry and personal defense. Its compact size, lightweight, and reliability make it an ideal weapon for those who want a handgun that is easy to carry and easy to use. Despite some criticism, the Glock 43 has established itself as a solid choice in the firearms market and will likely continue to be a popular choice for years to come.
