I have not shot it yet, but trigger work has been done (not me :mrgreen:). Added to the 43 is: Trijicon Ghost Ring Tritium sights, Vickers slide stop, and the Talon rear wrap rubber grip.
Happy, Happy, Happy!

Me too just shot mine today! No sharp recoil either. I think it is a winner.

I've got a couple of hundred rounds though mine without a bobble. I like it a lot!

How does the recoil and muzzle jump compare to the Glock 26? As much as I like my 26 it is rather chunky for CCW unless I'm wearing a coat. Still, I shoot it as well as my 19. I also have the 42 which is the ne plus ultra of an IWB carry gun and a real boolit shootin' machine with soft recoil.

I run a G27 and recoil is less than that. Unbelievably soft to shoot.

I got rid of my 26 so I cant shoot them side by side but recoil is mild. Probably close to a 26 because if nothing else it fits the average hand a lot better.

For me the recoil is more unpleasant than my 26 with the same loads. It's not that it's uncontrollable or difficult getting back on target just that little guns and my old worn out hands don't get along like they used to. The wider blackstrap of the 26 is more friendly to MY hand. BTW I've found the 43 comes up short on accuracy compared to the 26. For its intended use its good to go.

I used to have a Kahr CW9. Although I couldn't shoot it well that gun tamed recoil and muzzle jump really well. If the 43 is like that one then it should be a winner.

The 43s slide is nearly identical to the CW9 and grip is about 5/8" shorter.

I think Glock has a winner on their hands with the G43

Picked up a sticky holster last week for it and have a Blade-Tech IWB ordered.
