/k/, I presently own a Glock 26 which is too large to carry, I just keep it in my car. I also have a Kel-Tec P3AT which jams just about every time I shoot it, so it offers me no confidence that it will save me if I ever need it.
I'm looking for a concealable 9mm single stack. What is /k/'s opinion on the Glock 43?

I own one. Great gun for when you absolutely must be as concealed as possible. I still carry my 19 most of the time.

Thanks. I live in FL which is not an open carry state (yet).

Florida. I need something concealable in shorts, my 26 is too heavy.

I have one of these and it's Tits....I got it in the mail, put it on to try it, and watched a movie
totally forgetting it was there as I sat on the couch... Super comfy

why

That looks sweet. Could definitely sport it. Thanks for the info.

I always added a pinkie grip extension for +2 in my 26. Haven't checked if you can do that with the 43 mags.
>>28077263
the pinkie extension mag holds the same as the flush fit mag on the 43, they're both 6 rounders. There are aftermarket baseplates, but they use the stock mag spring, and I've read a decent amount about them causing occasional FTFs, so I would never use them while carrying, but they could be fun for range time.

I have the G43 and find it very comfortable to wear and shoot. It works for what I need it to do. However, before trading in for a new gun, try getting a quality leather gun belt (1/4" thick) and a quality holster.

How fat are you? Holy fuck OP. I live in Florida and G26 is great. Just gay I have to leave it in my car when I go to class.
The width difference between the two is darn near statistically negligible. If I recall G43 is 1.07 and G26 is 1.18. I had a Kahr CW9 which is thinner than the G43 at .99 and sold it off.
