Three Years With a Glock 43

[cktad]

I think it's something to keep an eye on, but I suspect it's also overblown. There are plenty of reports of Glock firing pins breaking too. I'll still carry one though. I'll also consider a steel replacement if anyone comes out with them.

G19 Gen4 broken firing pin
Glock OEM pin will fail you
Gen 3&4 Glocks have MIM firing pins
Glock 34 broken firing pin
Palm Beach sheriff says Glock firing pins breaking and not reliable

This place makes them for the P365 and Glock. They just came out with the one for the P365.

She has trouble racking slides and loading ammo, the 380 ez is a lot easier for her on both aspects. It also has more safety features that are ideal for a purse gun. I would have bought her a G43 awhile ago but I don't think she would practice with it or carry it much. She's much more likely to do both with the Shield. I get my 380 ammo for around 20 cents a round, about the same as the 9mm range ammo that I like.

Well then. Okay.

Sorry the link didn't show up in my post https://shop.lspi.com/Steel-Striker-For-SIG-P365-Pistols-LS-7365.htm

A friend just ordered one for his P365.

Only $99.99 for a steel one...I'll pass.

Thanks. They need to post a picture of it before I can give 'em $100. It's too integral to the safety and functioning of the gun to get wrong.

Tell that to Sig, they used a MIM part from India.

I don’t have a problem with it. There’s nothing inherently wrong with MIM, and it’s a global market. Mixing metal powder and binder, melting and then heat treating it isn’t terribly difficult. Any manufacturer can have issues with batches. There’s a whole industry for working QC problems.

Agreed. MIM done right is better than cast. Apparently MIM is the new "plastic".

Are you sure? Got a link? Or did you just read this on the net?
