John 'Shrek' McPhee, a former Special Operations professional and firearms instructor, recommends the Glock 48 for beginners.

Johnny Q provides an expert comparison between the Glock 43x MOS and the standard Glock 43x. The MOS variant features an optic-ready slide and accessory rail, shown here with a Gideon Valor Mini optic and Streamlight TLR-7 sub. The standard model lacks these features but includes iron sights. Both pistols are chambered in 9x19mm and have a 10-round capacity.

The speaker, an experienced firearms instructor, explains why he has stopped carrying the Glock 43X as his primary EDC. His main reasons are the limited 10-round magazine capacity, the lack of native optics-ready (MOS) capability, and the absence of a light-compatible rail. While acknowledging the 43X's compact size and Glock reliability, he finds it 'boring' and less exciting than newer, higher-capacity alternatives on the market. He suggests other pistols like the Sig Sauer P365, Shield Arms X, and Springfield Armory Hellcat Pro as potentially better EDC options.
