Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key modifications in the Combat Carry Glock 43X build?

The Combat Carry Glock 43X features a 'Combat Cut' optic mount with the rear sight in front of the optic, a Gen2 Pyramid Trigger for improved pull and reset, a tungsten guide rod for recoil reduction, and a +4 magazine extension for increased capacity.

How does the 'Combat Cut' optic mount improve shooting?

The 'Combat Cut' places the rear sight in front of the red dot optic. This configuration ensures a clear sight picture and facilitates quicker red dot acquisition, while also providing a usable iron sight backup if the optic fails.

What are the benefits of the Pyramid Trigger upgrade?

The Gen2 Pyramid Trigger offers a lighter pull (around 3.5 lbs), a crisper break, and a significantly reduced reset compared to a stock Glock trigger. This enhances shooting accuracy and allows for faster follow-up shots.

Can I customize my own Glock 43X with these features?

Yes, customers can purchase the complete custom firearm, just the custom upper assembly, or send their existing Glock 43X slide to GlockStore for the 'Combat Cut' and optic milling service.
