    I picked this like new Glock 43x up a few weeks ago from Marine Division Two (great to deal with) and just finalized and installed a few upgrades. Got it outside on Friday and put 250 rounds through it. 125 rounds of steel cased Brown Bear, 100 rounds of Federal aluminum and 25 rounds of 124gr HST, I had one failure to fire with a Brown bear round, when I inspected the round the primer was dented so it was just a bad round.

    My accuracy wasn't amazing but it wasn't bad since all my hits where center mass on a IPSC A-C zone steel target at 10-20 yards while firing at a medium pace. Changed out the sights for a set of Trulo TFX Pro's sights, a Vickers extended slide stop, and a set of Traction rubber grip overlays. The appendix holster I was using for my standard 43 fit but was a bit loose on the 43x due to the longer frame so I picked up a Torsion IWB holster from Bravo Concealment which I think is an excellent value as compared to similar much more expensive options out there. All in all I really like the 43x it has enough benefits for me making it definitely worth the small investment for the upgrade over the standard G43 which by itself is an excellent pistol. The new Shield Arms 15 round mags by CMI that are shipping now are just icing on the top even though I am more then confident with 10+1 in this pistol.

    Now that Apex is offering a slim frame duty style trigger similar to their M&P offerings for the G43x & 48 I may give that a go down the line.

    I do think my Fortius Sapphire blue slide Shield is much classier

    Yo, that shit is sexy! The kind of pistol you display under glass and never shoot.

    It's what I CC, sans the blue sapphire.

    I only lasted 26 days into 2020 before buying a new gun... I picked up a Ruger 10/22 with wooden stock. I was debating between the Golden Boy Henry in .22 or the Ruger and I figured at the moment the Ruger was the best option.

    I've been thinking about one of those, too. But...I'm thinking of doing that nifty Samson conversion and can't justify a Mini-14 for that....but boy is that cool.

    Got the last gun on my TSW wish list (for now). Now on to the more rare and expensive Performance Center models.
