    Glock 43 clone, only better





    Sold out within minutes of posting the deal of course. The price they showed was 359.99. I was looking at getting a SIG P365 Spectre Comp. The sizes are similar I guess, although this PSA would be less than half the price of the SIG. But the big difference to me is the ability to get a manual safety. I'm not sticking a pistol without a safety in my pants, pointing at stuff I value highly.

    This is something kalis would probably like. Integrated comp, so no threaded barrel. If the Glock 43 is ever put on the roster, you could probably get the slide assembly from PSA. Optic ready, of course.

      It's probably similar to their double-stack Daggers. I have Glocks and Daggers - equally bad as far as I can tell.

        G43 or G19 clone? Its got 15rd mag, but they say their slides work on G43 frames.

        G43 upper with G19 lower.

            Could be shield arms S15 sized mags.
            Glock 43X takes 15 round shield arms mags.


            I think 43 and 43X slides interchange but 43 and 43X frames are different because you can not fit a 43X mag or an S15 mag into a 43 frame.

                Yes, they were actually selling the mags before anything else.

                The ad says:
                **PSA Micro slides are compatible with G43/G43x/G48 frames, barrels, and recoil assemblies. PSA Dagger Micro Slides are NOT compatible with Dagger Compact and Full Size - S Frames
                Everything I know about Glock 43's came from that ad.

                  If you read the dagger micro c1 description carefully, it seems like PSA might be making it's OWN S15 clone magazines since actual S15 mags are metal.

                    Correct, 43, 43x, and 48 slides all interchange.
                    43 is short grip, short slide
                    43x is long grip, short slide
                    48 is long grip, long slide.

                    And your correct the 43 is a bastard child grip, no other mags fit.

                      Yeah there's some legal stuff going on between Shield and PSA. I believe Shield sent them a letter and PSA responded by suing them.

                        Yeah. Reminds me of the S&W M&P9 1.0 trigger. It was horrible.

                          A very subjective claim. I fail to see how a PSA cloned Glock is ?better? than the ?Genuine? product everyone so desperately wants to copy. PSA has some reliability issues with both rifles and pistols as well, primarily parts assembly and QC issues. Just GTS.

                          The PSA?s are cheaply made and their quality control lacks any serious ?control? as evidenced by reviews found online by actual owners. You get what you pay for. I could be wrong, but no government agency nor military branch that I know of issues PSA weaponry to their armed employees. To me, that speaks volumes right there.

                          What does everyone want, a genuine Rolex, or some knock-off clone? A genuine Gucci, Louie Vuitton or Channel bag or a cheap and inexpensive cloned knock-off? (Ask your wife that last question). Snap-on, Matco, Hilti tools or cloned Harbor Freight?

                          Is Glock 100% perfect? No. Nothing man-made and mechanically operated is ever 100% perfect nor lasts forever. That includes cars, trucks, jets, rockets, tools, electronics, gym equipment, kitchen appliances, you name it. But, I?ll stick with Glock?s nearly 4 decades of combat proven reliability in the harshest of conditions and who is also a brand that?s wanting to be ?copied? (counterfeited) by countless other manufacturers. (I could say the same about Beretta, Hk or CZ as well for that matter, but nobody is copying their designs en masse like the Glock brand). Glock is still #1 in proven ultra reliability, function and service.

                          ”People complain about Glock not be innovative, but they can’t complain about Glock’s reliability. I don’t want Glock to change a thing… I like them just the way they are.”

                            Yes they were, and it caused a little stir on the forum when they came out because the metal mags tear up the mag release unless you change to a metal release. So the PSA mags were a way to get 15 rounds without changing the mag release.

                              I want to add this to my packout boxes at work.
                              It comes in a packout box instead of the standard black glock case
