The Glock 43X combines a compact-size grip length, a built-in beaver tail and a subcompact-slim slide for a comfortably balanced firearm. Features Glock’s Safe Action system which provides a consistent trigger pull from the first to the last round; three automatic independently operating mechanical safeties; frame is made of polymer with hardened steel guides; ideal grip angle and low weight. The advanced surface treatment of the slide results in optimal hardness by considerably reducing wear and tear and it makes it corrosion resistant, even when operating in saltwater conditions. The matte surface minimizes light reflection. Its extractor serves as a loaded chamber indicator to comply with the laws of certain states and its position may visually and physically indicate whether there is a cartridge in the chamber of the pistol.
