The pros and cons of actually shooting the G43x
My 43x lower came in and I picked up 3 mags so I'm into it 275 using the 43 slide. I like the feel and I'm going to try it out Saturday.

I like the looks of the black on black, I also have ameriglow orange agent sights.

12131: As someone stated earlier in this thread, the Kineti-Tech trigger will solve the "target trigger" issue. It uses a Glock trigger bar attached to their smooth trigger. If you want to try it I'll send you mine....had it on a 43 I hated and sold - never used it. If you want it, it's yours - just shoot me an email to my forum address. The least I can do for someone who has done so much for SF members.

I hit the range today with my franken glock x
and without a doubt the 43x grip is a huge huge improvement over the 43 with the taren tactical +2 extensions.


I shot 350 rounds thru it and the recoil has come way down from the standard 43, the grip fits much better and it feels better then my 365 with a 12 round mag. Never thought I would say that as I'm a big 365 fan.
If they can get a 12 or more round mag to work it's going to great. Both the 365 and the 43x have their advantages for sure but the gap between them has really narrowed in my opinion.

I'm really glad I spent the money on the receiver and mags, now it took a pistol that was collecting dust and got it bag in my shooting bag.

Gunbroker, I got it from podiumarchery but he is slower then slow with poor communication, there are a few people selling them read their feedback before you purchase.

I installed a Kineti-Tech trigger on my 43X, and lightly polished the trigger bar. Took it to the range yesterday and what a big difference. Q, you will love that trigger.

The Overwatch Poly-DAT was my choice. It looks pretty similar to the one above. Much better feel than stock.

"The designer of the gun had clearly not been instructed to beat about the bush. 'Make it evil,' he'd been told. 'Make it totally clear that this gun has a right end and a wrong end. Make it totally clear to anyone standing at the wrong end that things are going badly for them. If that means sticking all sort of spikes and prongs and blackened bits all over it then so be it. This is not a gun for hanging over the fireplace or sticking in the umbrella stand, it is a gun for going out and making people miserable with." -Douglas Adams

The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all. -Mencken
