Joel is a great salesman. I now have twin Glock 43s. One with TFOs and the newest one with big dots. I have installed the minus connectors and 4.5 Wolff striker spring. Just great pistols!

I have the ghost connector in mine, how much nicer does everything feel with the 4.5lb striker spring installed?
And I keep seeing all this talk about two g43's, starting to make me want a second cause I like mine so much

Since I don't own a trigger gauge and trigger pull is subjective. I tried the 4# that I usually run in my other Glocks and felt like the trigger was to mushy, it worked fine just not for me. I ordered Wolff 4.5 and like it much better.

I was trying to have 2 Kahr PM 9s but couldn't get anyone on OSA to trade so my local dealer had a used 43 and I traded my last Kahr to him. My other 43 came from Sooner State Pawn (a great deal from Tommy, Jennifer and the gang). Two 43 and 7 mags all with one plus extensions. I think I am ready

Now all you need is a twin shoulder rig for those twins!:thumbup3:

You could jerry-rig something light weight up; just get two old jockstraps, some duct tape, and make yourself a prototype...

Hard transition to the G43? Nah...carrying that little Glock 43 is a piece of cake. If you absolutely feel you must have a high capacity gun on you, then yeah, it's gonna be hard getting used to the idea of 6+1 and a spare 6 in a pocket or a mag pouch. For me, the G43 isn't my favorite handgun, but it's my favorite handgun to carry. You dig?

For sure. I think that the capacity is going to be my biggest thing with the g43. however I did go and handle the firearm yesterday and I am pumped to pick it up!

I just shot my 43 at the range. (Am still there; its .45 ACP time now). I shoot my 43 as well as the 19. It's a great little pistol. Easy to carry, easy to shoot. Always goes bang. Bullets go where I want them to go as well. Now let's see how the Commanders work! Yee haa! I loves me some .45 ACP!
