I mean it's fine. I actually just bought a PDP just because I wanted a new gun. But It doesn't do anything that an Echelon, VP9, M&P 2.0, G19, M18, or any other polymer framed striker doesn't do. They have all essentially achieved the same level of reliability too and they all come optics cut now.
I mean yeah if you reduce it to gun goes bang and shoots bad guy then sure. They all do that.I mean it's fine. I actually just bought a PDP just because I wanted a new gun.

The rostered PDPs are extra annoying actually because they don't support Walther's DPT unless you remove the MD. Walther denies warranty if you remove it too because you're technically modifying the frame. It's also a pain in the ass to do it because Walther chose the most asinine way to implement it. I'm actually ordering the plug right now lol.
You are not required to read those threads, just tske yourCompletely missing the point. No one is complaining about a new gun going on the roster. We’re complaining that Glock fanboys are blowing the internet up over what objectively is a mediocre plastic pistol. You wanna buy a cheapty pistol then fine, we don’t need ten threads about it like its the second coming of Jesus.
The market dictates the production. Everyone and their Mother demand optic ready firearms. My guess is it will be equipped with moss optics cut.https://www.turners.com/glock/glock-43x-ca-9mm-california-compliant-2018302
no details revealed , from the SKU, it seems like it is likely the basic one without MOS optic cut.
And we still don't see it's CLI design cuz the regular G43X only has LCI but doesn't have CLI.
I'm somewhat interested in the mag disconnector design of this G43X; with lots of the polymer frame/striker-fired pistols added to the handgun roster since the very first P320CA, shouldn't be that difficult for Glock to make one(Same for CA legal CZ P-10C OR)
$599.99, well...it is just fine.
People who like Glocks? People who are sick of asinine California draconian laws?A new Glock???
Who cares?
They would still be selling Gen 3s if California wouldn’t have pulled this obvious unconstitutional bs. Yes, the roster itself is bs also.I think what people are missing is that Glock, a long stalwart of saying “we won’t change for civilian customers” (I.e. California) has now created a handgun that adapts to the crazy laws that are politicians passed. I won’t say I agree with those laws, but I’m very thankful that they have made this adaptation. And I think the 43X is an absolutely perfect platform to do it in. It was originally only a 10 round gun, so magazines are no problem.
I do hope they incorporate the new six generation trigger, if only for the flat face of it. That alone would get me interested.
And there’s one thing I cannot take away from Glock, they just freaking work… There are a lot of other guns that have a very solid reputation, like HK, but there are very few that are in the league that HK and Glocks are in.
