Glock 42 Review (Likely The BEST 380 Pistol for Concealed Carry) - https://youtu.be/hcc3LoYmt5c
Glock 43 Review (Possibly THE BEST Concealed Carry Gun) - https://youtu.be/NbtKcJyYFI4

Overall, you get from these Glock pistols exactly what you expect from a Glock. Easy operation, basic design, reliable performance. In this instance, however, I had some Glock problems... not a usual occasion, so I was really surprised. Both of these are compact Glock models. These Glock handguns are a great option for CCW. Are these the best Glock to carry? Definitely in my top 5! Although I have to say, I've been thinking about Glock 48 with Shield Arms mags lately as the best 9mm Glock, because of the mag capacity and a slim profile. Glock G43 is 6 rounds, just like Glock G42.

So, what do you guys think about this Glock model comparison between the Glock 43 and the Glock 42? Which one would you pick? Let me know in the comments below! Thanks for watching! God bless!
