Compact defensive pistols today must balance concealability, shootability, and modularity. For operators and responsible carriers who want a carry gun that adapts to modern optics and suppression accessories, choosing a platform with quality barrel work, an optics-ready slide, and robust controls is essential.
GLOCK G43X is a customized subcompact, striker-fired pistol built for concealed carry and tactical applications. 
Design and Key Features
The GLOCK G43X in this configuration upgrades the standard subcompact by integrating a 3.41-inch Glock Marksman Barrel (GMB) for improved accuracy and a Zaffiri 1/2×28 threaded barrel for direct attachment of a suppressor or compensator. The optics-ready slide accepts RMSc footprint red dots for fast target acquisition, while suppressor-height sights preserve usable sight picture when a suppressor or red dot is fitted. Front slide serrations and a two-tone FDE Cerakote finish by Shark Coast Tactical complete the package with enhanced manipulation and corrosion resistance.

Performance and Practical Use
Why 9mm works here
Chambered in 9mm, the GLOCK G43X offers manageable recoil in a compact footprint, wide ammo availability, and effective terminal performance with modern defensive projectiles. The 3.41-inch GMB tightens groups over factory barrels, useful for both duty-stress accuracy and confident defensive shots at typical engagement distances.
Controls and ergonomics
The grip profile is redesigned without finger grooves to accommodate different hand sizes and holster systems. Included are two 10-round magazines and a Picatinny rail for lights or lasers, preserving real-world versatility in a pocket- or IWB-carried package.

Accessory Integration
The Zaffiri 1/2×28 threaded barrel is a standout for those planning suppressed operations or muzzle device tuning. Combined with an optics-ready slide and suppressor-height sights, the platform supports rapid red-dot co-witness and threaded-device alignment without expensive slide milling from aftermarket shops.
At a price of $733.99, the GLOCK G43X provides purpose-built features—threaded GMB, optics readiness, suppressor-height sights, custom FDE Cerakote, front serrations, and two 10-round mags—that make it a high-value option for tactical-minded carriers.
