The Official M4C 9mm Single Stack Glock Thread

I've always done it. I find them more finger friendly.

If you have arthritis in your hands, the smooth-face trigger seems to help a bit after a long day at the range.

Or it does for me, anyway. My hands appreciate whatever help they can get. I don't shoot much .45 anymore, and the days of shooting a .357 all day are gone forever.

It's a small thing, but noticeable to me for some reason. Maybe it's how the finger slides under recoil, I dunno.

I wouldn't be suprised if the smooth 42 trigger fit the 43.

In the image a couple posts up the frames look different, but it would be a pleasant surprise.

In the webcasts, the Glock rep said the only common parts are a few of the springs.

I wouldn't be suprised if the smooth 42 trigger fit the 43.

Only common parts are: FP Spring, FP safety/slide lock spring, spring cups, locking block, sights and screw, EDP spring, Trigger housing, connector, ejector, trigger spring assembly, mag catch spring off the top of my head.

I have two G43s on order through Glock. Now for the nice 120 day wait. Expect a range report soon after ("eventually").

120 days? Why so long? I thought they would be available April-May.

Here is a new detailed video of the Glock 43....

120 days? Why so long? I thought they would be available April-May.

They are essentially made to order when ordered directly through Glock (as Glock isn't allowed to keep a stock of them on hand per the rep I spoke with) and they always quote direct orders at 120 days. It may take less, or may take the full 120. The man I spoke with estimates it'll take the full 120 based on how many they'll be making and how popular they expect the G43 to be.
