The 43X Slimline design delivers a compact, micro-size profile with a 10+1 capacity. This example retains the original two-tone look with a silver nPVD slide and a black polymer frame, and it is the non-MOS, non-rail configuration. Front and rear serrations aid in slide manipulation, and the extended beavertail contributes to a controlled grip.
The 3.41-inch Glock Marksman Barrel is paired with fixed sights — a white dot front and white U-notch rear — for a clean sight picture. The slide has no optic cut, staying true to the original configuration of this early variant.
Controls include a reversible magazine release and Glock’s Safe Action System with a trigger safety tab. The trigger setup is Glock-standard, and the pistol maintains the Slimline ergonomics; the frame has aftermarket hand-stippling on the grip panels and backstrap.
Origin and markings are clear: Austrian/CIP proof marks appear on the barrel hood, and the frame carries the MADE IN AUSTRIA / GLOCK, INC., SMYRNA, GA. legend. Dimensions are approximately 6.50 inches in overall length, 5.04 inches in height, 1.10 inches in width, with an unloaded weight around 18.7 ounces.
Included extras add value and flexibility: a factory G43 dual recoil spring assembly (new), a Ghost Edge connector for G42/G43 (new), a silver extended magazine release (not installed), and an additional unbranded recoil spring/guide rod assembly.
