The Quickscope Version
Image this scenario for a second: You just bought a new Glock 43 or 43X—maybe even a Glock 48 if you were feeling wild and crazy. It looks fine and all, but you want to spice it up a bit. What are some of the best Glock 43 upgrades your money can buy? Too easy. Custom slides, barrels, complete uppers, sights, and mag extensions are four mods for Glock 43 (and 48) firearms that can take their look and performance to the next level. What’s even better is that we offer professional installation of these parts at Zaffiri Precision. Carry on.
Glock 43 and 43X models are highly sought after by gun enthusiasts and first-time buyers for a lot of reasons, including the fact that they are both single-stack 9mm firearms that are great for concealed carry. So, how can you make yours truly stand out? If the thought of showing up at the shooting range with a custom, personalized look to your Glock 43 or 43X model excites you—well—you’ll love this edition of Shooting the Sh!t. Today, we’re talking all about the best Glock 43 upgrades money can buy. From slides to barrels to Glock 43 sights, we’ll cover the different parts and accessories that can boost the look and even the performance of your firearm.
Custom Slides
If there’s one thing we can all agree on, it’s that the generic Glock slides can look a little bland. That doesn’t mean you can’t create one from scratch that meets your desired needs. One of the best Glock 43 upgrades is a new slide. Why? Design aside, a new slide can do several things to boost your shooting performance. First, this type of custom mod for Glock 43s can improve your overall grip and slide cycling. In other words, it could boost your accuracy in the long term.
Now, whether you’re a fan of the camouflage look or a bolder color scheme, our Custom Slide Line allows you to build a Glock 43 accessory that matches your personality. You can even add an optic cut to enhance the durability of your slide.
Barrels
What makes a new barrel one of the best Glock 43 upgrades is the fact that it can improve your shooting accuracy. Think of threaded or ported barrels, for example. A threaded barrel can help reduce recoil, a major selling point for those who may be in shooting competitions or looking to hit more bullseyes at the range.
Our selection of barrels for Glock 43 and 43X models includes flush, ported, and threaded options. For concealed carry, flush barrels tend to be a better option, but for the more advanced shooters, both ported and threaded barrels represent a great choice for improving your firearm’s performance.
Sights
Were you somebody who played Call of Duty? Remember that feeling of unlocking and equipping a new sight to your favorite gun? Pretty badass, right? Well, you’re probably a step ahead of us here, but sights are also one of the best Glock 43 upgrades on the market today. If you purchased a firearm for concealed carry and self-defense, this mod for your Glock 43 may not be necessary. However, Glock 43 sights are great for those looking to get into the world of competitive shooting. Plus, they’re just eye-grabbing.
Now, if you find the right sight to attach to your Glock 43, don’t worry too much about putting it on properly if your experience is limited. Our team also offers professional installation for sights and other Glock 43 accessories such as slides.
Mag Extensions
This one goes out to those who have a Glock 43X. Our custom mag extension is one of the best Glock 43X upgrades because it gives your firearm a +2 to its overall magazine capacity. This is great for those looking to invest in a Glock 43X accessory that can mean a lot in concealed carry and self-defense scenarios. The cherry on top? It can be customized to match the color scheme of your custom slide and barrel as well.
As an added bonus, these mag extensions can also be used on Glock 48 models. So, if you went with a firearm that is more closely related to the Glock 19, we’ve still got you covered.
Complete Uppers
We saved the best for last. If you’re someone who wants the complete package, look no further than a complete upper set for your Glock 43, 43X, or 48 model. This is perhaps the ultimate Glock 43 upgrade because you get the best of all worlds. A custom slide, barrel, sights, and additional parts that are made with high-quality materials like 17.4 stainless steel.
