OP here.
Thanks for the responses.
They are supporting my inclination to not carry a G43 in a sticky holster. Wish I’d been convincingly talked out of that need for caution.

Aglifter —
Agreed 100% re the HK P7 being the ultimate EDC except for weight.
Actually, I would like a version of:
- P7 (heel release)
- Aluminum (or “scandium alloy”) frame
- 7 round magazine
- Maybe 23 oz weight?
