Glock 43 Frames with G48 Slides

[Azolink]

Hey I Run Guns! Would it be possible to bring in a few Glock 43 Frames??? I really want to run a Glock 43 frame with my 48 slide and I'm sure there are others who would like to do the same!

I feel the same way.
I’ve been tempted to get a 43 just to try this combo out but really have no use for a 43 top end.

I'm pretty sure these use the exact same frame? Maybe I'm wrong

43x frame is the same as 48.

43 is a much smaller single stack 9mm with 6 round mag.

if enough people show interest they may be willing to make it happen.


The price for a Canadian compliant g43 is pretty steep. The frames alone are significantly cheaper (in the US that is).

I would buy 43 frame only.

It does look a little funny with long slide and short handle

Will the 48 magazine work the 43 frame?

 

[DasJager]

No, they're different.

What's a 43 frame usually go for?

I'd most likely be interested as well.

Appears to, its been "tested" by a number of Americans.

I've seen a few around $200USD

To be clear the 48 / 43X magazine does NOT fit in the 43 frame.

This looks silly. I'm out.

The picture was taken with a magazine with a Pierce (+1) Baseplate that increases capacity to 7 rounds. With a flush fit magazine plate, it looks even worse.

To each their own. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Personally I think it Appears 10,000x better than any of the subcompact abominations with extended barrels.

My bad, misinterpreted the question as "will the 48 slide work with the 43 frame"
