Frequently Asked Questions

What are the main differences between the Glock 43X and the Glock 43X MOS?

The primary difference is the Glock 43X MOS features a factory-milled slide for mounting micro red dot optics and includes a slim accessory rail for lights. The standard Glock 43X lacks these integrated mounting capabilities, making the MOS version more adaptable for modern EDC setups.

Can you mount a red dot sight and a light on the Glock 43X MOS?

Yes, the Glock 43X MOS is specifically designed for this. It has a Modular Optic System (MOS) slide cut to accept various micro red dot sights and a slim accessory rail compatible with compact lights like the Streamlight TLR-7 sub.

Is the Glock 43X series suitable for shooting at longer distances like 50 yards?

While designed primarily for concealed carry (EDC), the Glock 43X and 43X MOS can be surprisingly accurate at 50 yards, especially when equipped with a red dot optic. However, their compact nature means they are not intended for precision competition shooting at extended ranges.

What accessories were mentioned for the Glock 43X and 43X MOS?

The video mentions Holosun micro red dot sights for the 43X MOS and Streamlight weapon-mounted lights, specifically the TLR-7 sub for the MOS model and the TLR-6 for the standard 43X. Custom stippling was also shown on one of the 43X models.
