Shield mags have been flawless for me in a 48 and 43X.
I use both, but generally prefer the 48 with a Holosun. This was a surprise to me, too. As i've never heard anything but good reports about the Shield mags.

Another vote for 43X with Shield mags. Would love to have a 48.

Going to the shop this morning, will look at a 48 also. But liked the way the 43x felt in my hand. Wish me luck!

PSA G48 Mags are perfect for my purposes. They allow the use of factory magazine release so you can still use the factory G48 mags. The shield arms mags do allow that.

I would be looking at one of the Sig P365 Macro or XL versions over either one of the Glocks.
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

I prefer the 43X with PSA mags for appendix carry. Have a 48 also. Love them both.

I ended up buying the 43x with the night sights! Thinking I'm going to like it!

PSA Mags run perfectly for me, and the bonus you do not have to which out the magazine release so you can still use the Glock factory mags. Shield mags are not that flexible and once you which over to them that's all you can use. For me, that's not a good thing.

What’s the Fires consensus? (For carry). Please forgive this question on a Glock thread, serious question, can someone share what the 43x or 48 has over the P365 from sig or why you prefer the 43X or 48 over the sigp365?

I’ve got 8 of them and they have been flawless. Some have a bit of plastic flashing in the tube. Doesn’t seem to bother things but a minute or two with a sandpaper wrapped dowel cleans it up.

Really the Micro Dagger deserves a look with all this PSA shopping. I just swapped in the MD lower on my G48 and they are very nice. Otherwise my vote is G48. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/pLVQ3s9P/IMG-0098.jpg)

43x MOS for me with a Trijicon RMRcc. I don’t love how high the Trijicon rides, but work picks what I can carry. After retirement I’ll keep the fun and find a dot that sits lower so I can run a more conventional fixed sight height
