But as I said there's rumored to be another magazine coming out in the near future so I'm pretty much over that or using factory. Originally I was intending on getting a 1 and done general handgun (HAHA some people will say as you never buy just one gun) I knew I wanted a gun that was concealable, but the 10 round capacity did slightly turn me off because I thought I was going to have 15 rounds originally before the shield arm magazine experience/research. Me being a new gun owner I didn't really know exactly what I wanted yet. (after switching back to factory works fine, it seems you need to hit the lottery with their gen 2 magazines after spending hours researching and watching videos, but I do not trust them myself, which is fine because I've decided to be okay with using factory 10 rounds +1 and I can wait for PSA to come out with their alternative magazine, which is rumored to come out soon) Went home and watched some videos, and despite my friends 43x (shield mags) having failures to feed/eject, my excitement got the best of me and we both returned the next day to shoot his 43x, 45 and 19, and after enjoying my day I literally pulled the trigger and bought my own 43x following his footsteps. His 43x worked flawlessly with the factory magazine and catch, but after installing the shield arms catch and using their magazine, we were having failures to feed and failures to eject every other shot fired. There were 2 left at my local shop with night sights installed, and my friend decided that he would buy the 43x. He suggested it was a great solution because of the Shield Arms magazine catch that works with the Shield Arms magazines 15 round capacity. (basically knew nothing at the time, even less than I do after my purchase and nonstop research since) I kind of had my unexperienced novice eyes on a Glock 19, but me being a skinnier guy with smaller hands the 43x really stood out to me for concealment. My friend who owns multiple guns and full sized Glocks wanted a Glock 26 and the guy who worked the shop pointed us towards the 43x. (24 now) Had a great time shooting with some of my friends and my buddy who just finished military service and after the excitement of a few experiences at the range decided to buy my first gun, that being a Glock 43x. New gun owner here, wanted to own a gun my entire life.
