I'm sold on the 43 and really love it. In fact, I'm downsizing a good bit of my collection to reflect almost exclusively Glock. (go ahead, G-haters, hate...haha) Getting rid of a few and going to pick up the G19 and G30, bringing my Glock collection to 4, and probably leave it at that.

The rest is rifles and shotguns, mainly tactical.
:thumbsup: I have been a fan of Glocks since the early 90's.
Since carrying the G43 the last two weeks, I just feel WAY more confident. The Bersa could tend to be picky with brass that wasn't really high quality. I really appreciate the assurance that a Glock will fire anything, any time. :thumbs2:

I cannot over emphasize how much I enjoy shooting the G30. It is a real sweet shooter, as is the G29.

My gun is the M109A5. I am adept at concealing it, but never quite got the hang of carrying it. :biggrinjester:

I dont't have a "CCW". I carry my Tanfoglio BTA90 openly as a rule, concealing only when the siuation dictates and disarming only if I must.

Your mileage will vary.

Mostly carry a 1911 platform. My truck gun is one of 3 XD .45. I have a pocket carry of a P3AT. If I am hunting I will carry a S&W 500
