I'd just be done with it and get a sig 938 😀 Had one for about 2 years. Sexy little pocket gun but it had too many FTE's. Never could get it to shoot any type ammo without a random FTE. I feel like this thread is ripe for some 1911 memes.... Lol I posted that one for u but I did like that 938

Probably the perfect carry gun.id probably got the 43 over the x cause I like single stack or shorter grip comfort currently carrying a xds45 but most would pick the x for extra round count .good job definitely didn't go wrong . That fusion 1911 is sweet also

That fusion 1911 is sweet also 3%, i might not ever carry that fusion but it sure is nice to pull out and look at now and then. Its a shooter too. I hit my 6" target first shot with it from about 30yds. It is a little heavy.

I still like a "Wheel Gun" myself. A HOT load with a hollow point bullet in .357 Magnum is some BAD MEDICINE!! And they conceal so easily in the waistband too~

Every gun I carry, I have a uncle mikes pocket holster for. They are the absolute minimal size and cushion just enough to make IWB comfortable. I’ve spent way more on holsters for way less. I carry my 43x in a #4 I believe. My Ruger 380 is in the #3. Pretty sure that’s right. For 15.00 y’all need to at least try it. Pocket holster without the clip.

Regular 43 for me. Carry it everywhere in a High Noon iwb holster. I don't understand the 43x and 48. Both kinda defeat the purpose of a micro-compact carry gun in my opinion. I've thought about going with a 365 but I feel so comfortable with my 43 I don't want to change.

I think of my 48 as more of a 19 that actually fits my hand The G19 is the single greatest handgun ever made. The 48 would take that title if Glock would adopt all-metal mags for it (like the Shield Arms mags) from the factory so that it came from the factory with a 15rd capacity.

Gomer, back in the day a glock 19 would have most likely been considered a girl glock. Alot has changed in a few years. I really like a small frame striker fire gun. I personally dont have any interest in full size pistolas. Could be the small chubby hands?

Could be the small chubby hands? nah I’ve had a g19 for years I’ve never considered it a girl gun…it’s just right for most applications… I Carry a lcp2 max now it would more fit the girl description

I'm toting my Mossberg mc2c which is a thinner g19. But no plastic pistol can match a 1911s trigger and provenance.

You chose well. Both 43 and 43x are both great choices though I prefer the 39. It was my BUG in my vest holster back in the day. Great for concealed carry too.

Strange as it is, I have small hands but the G17/G45 fit my hands like a glove and I never could get used to the G26. 43x is the best feeling Glock I have.
