The Glock G43X 9mm pistol pairs the longer grip of the 43X with the slim subcompact slide that made the Slimline series a concealed-carry standard (brand part no. UX4350204NR15ORBOTN). This configuration ships with two 15-round magazines, which puts the pistol at 15+1 instead of the factory 10+1 while keeping the same 1.10-inch width that lets a 43X ride inside the waistband without printing. The 3.41-inch Glock Marksman Barrel carries the match-grade rifling and crown Glock introduced for its Gen5-era pistols, and the slide wears a hardened, corrosion-resistant surface treatment with a matte finish that keeps glare down. Front slide serrations, a beavertail frame and an extractor that doubles as a loaded chamber indicator round out the package. For a shooter who wants a single-stack-thin carry gun without giving up double-stack capacity, this Glock build covers both.

Key Specifications

• The chambering is 9x19mm, the round that gives the 43X manageable recoil in a pistol this thin.
• Capacity in this configuration is 15+1, supplied by the two 15-round magazines that ship with the pistol.
• The barrel is a 3.41-inch Glock Marksman Barrel, the match-grade profile with a recessed crown that tightened up the accuracy of the newer Glock generations.
• Overall length is 6.50 inches, short enough to clear a cover garment when drawn from the appendix position.
• Width is 1.10 inches, the Slimline dimension that separates the 43X from a double-stack Glock 19.
• Height with a magazine inserted is 5.04 inches, the extra grip length over a G43 that lets a full hand on the gun.
• Weight without a magazine is 16.40 ounces, light enough for pocket-holster and ankle carry.
• The trigger pull is 24 N, about 5.4 pounds, the standard Safe Action weight that gives a consistent pull from the first shot to the last.
• The Safe Action system uses three independent automatic safeties that disengage in sequence as the trigger is pressed and reset when it is released.
• The slide carries front and rear serrations and a matte, hardened surface treatment that resists wear and corrosion.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is this G43X listed at 15+1 when a factory 43X holds 10? This configuration ships with two 15-round magazines in place of the standard 10-round magazines, so the pistol is ready to run at 15+1 out of the case.

What comes in the box? The pistol ships with two magazines, a magazine loader, a cleaning kit, a pistol case and a gun lock.

Does the G43X have a manual safety? No. Like every Glock, it relies on the Safe Action system, which combines the trigger safety, firing pin safety and drop safety into three automatic mechanisms with no external lever to sweep.
