    Glock 43X - A tool that fills a need

    Previous Review of Glock 43 I found the right 9mm for my wife, and I like it too. My wife carries a S&W J-Frame in .22 Magnum while jogging and such. She has shot my various CZ's and while she shot them ok, she was not able to be consistent while chambering a round. The BHP's have more...
