Frequently Asked Questions

How can I fix reliability issues with Shield Arms S15 magazines in my Glock 43X MOS?

Ensure the optic mounting screw on the right side of your red dot sight mount is not too long. If it interferes with the extractor, shorten the screw. This common issue can cause feeding malfunctions, but a simple fix restores reliability.

What are the benefits of the Johnny Glock Vex Combat Trigger for a Glock 43X MOS?

The Vex Combat Trigger offers a significantly smoother pull and improved ergonomics with its flat-face shoe. It provides a noticeable upgrade in trigger feel and performance compared to the stock trigger, enhancing overall shooting experience.

Is it safe to use a metal magazine release with polymer Glock magazines?

No, it is strongly advised against. Using a metal magazine release with polymer magazines can damage the magazines, leading to failures and spontaneous drops. The rule of thumb is to match materials: polymer with polymer, metal with metal.

What grip enhancements are recommended for the Glock 43X MOS?

Goon Tape and Talon Grips are recommended for enhancing the grip texture on the Glock 43X MOS. They provide better purchase and control, especially during dynamic shooting or in adverse conditions, without significantly altering the firearm's profile.
