I have a 43. I personally never considered the shield but my preacher got one for his wife and I handled it. I didn't like the way it felt in my hand. I am a glock guy. They will run and run and run. Like an ak. Don't know if the same could be said about a shield. There is a reason why so many police and military's around the world choose glock. I got a talo edition 43 from SSP for $499. Put a ghost connector in it and now it's done. All that for under $550. That ain't bad if you ask me. Sure a shield might be cheaper, but to me there is a reason for that.

LMAO, this is true, although I do love the 43. Couldn't care less about any other models

I noticed it's all the effeminate guys in this thread that like the g43

I own both. In my opinion the shield is the best choice of the two. Better capacity, and better sights out of the box. Pretty sure they are a few bucks cheaper at most dealers. Only thing I like better on the G43 is the lack of thumb safety.

You should talk, after all, you are one of the prettiest men on OSA. Well, when you "dress up" that is...you savage, you.

Sheild feels like it's gonna pop out of my hands while shooting. 43 is smaller and lighter. $15 ghost bar helps the trigger. You can put any sights you want on the glock or shield.

I'm not a glock guy and I picked the 43.

the shield feels like its going to pop out of your hand and yet the 43 is smaller and lighter? Everything I have seen says the 43 has a much snappier recoil...

My first Shield had the safety. As soon as they released one without the safety, I snatched one up.
