Not I. Didn't like the feel of the G36 & doubt I'll like this. Love my G26, but my LC9s covers my tiny gun needs just fine.

I hear ya. That g36 feels like a 1x3 broad in my hands. Wonder the same about the g43. Still, who's gonna be the first to get one and report.

I wanted to like the ruger LC9 but it's so thin it just doesn't feel right in my hand. I'll have to handle the 43 and see. I like the 26, and with Woolrich pants it's no problem to pocket carry.

From my understanding if you have held a G42 you know what the G43 will feel like. We haven't seen one yet. Personally I'm looking for the 6 inch barrel 10mm G40

I love the feel of the 36. I wish they would make a full sized version. I'm not a Glock guy and have no use for one, but would buy one right quick.
That said, the 43 is nothing like the 36. If I ever run across a good deal on one (since I sure don't need it) I'll grab it.

I've shot one and thought that it felt every bit as good as the 42 in .380. I'm waiting for the initial frenzy to die a bit as they are still running around the $500 mark around my area. And I agree with cas above, not at all like the 36, or for that matter the 26/27. It fits good and is controllable while shooting.

I have had mine almost 2 weeks now and am very pleased. I bought it to shoot in GSSF matches but will carry it some too. It is slightly longer and taller than a G42. The recoil is a little bit more than the G42 but that is to be expected. Mine shot to point of aim with 115 gr bullets, fmj and hollow points, standard velocity. I did not shoot any + p's. My only complaint is that the grip texturing is not very good. I have added a Talon Grip and that has fixed that problem. I have polished the action and added sights to my liking. It makes a nice pocket pistol.

I've handled them and shot one. I don't own one yet, but I will, as an EDC pistol.

We've had one on the range for a while now. They shoot fine for me. Eyeball accurate at 25 feet. As soon as they get a little more common I'll have one. Already picked up an IWB and AIWB for one...

"appendix IWB"
I got one last weekend as pretty much a straight swap for a S&W 317-3.
I really like it!

Ah, I didn't know there were appendix specific models. Good to know, thanks!

AIWB is like a shoot yourself in the groin holster. The idea conflicts in my head. Don't think I'd do it with anything that was fully cocked and could be fired without pulling the trigger.
