@Blackvegetable

Great minds think alike. That is, if you're gonna snag one. That's my next purchase! Light, thin, ultra-concealable, striker-fired, and Glock reliability. 
I "fondled" one at the gun shop last week. It's now a MUST HAVE. I really like not having to think about switching off a safety. Carry L&L or just a quick rack and you're set  :D  

BV has been red flagged. He can't own one. Psychiatric issues...

I like all the things you said.  But, since @Blackvegetable  is the local firearms expert I would like his opinion:

I currently carry an S&P 9 plus.  I like the versatility of the 43x and mag capacity.  It will be a good second.

One reviewer said this about the 43X...." the trigger feels like dragging a wet anchor across a sandy beach".....

"Reviewers" bitch a lot. About stupid stuff.
Some are on topic and some make no sense.

UPS guy was late so the product sucks... That kind of irrelevant crap.

Glocks are usually pretty good. Consistent.
You want variable quality, you buy Taurus or similar.

Use the money to get a penile implant.

The thing is, "dragging a wet anchor across a sandy beach" is actually a good thing - not unlike introducing a piccolo to a convention of retards..

That is to say, it SOUNDS "bad." But have you ever done it? I'm a yes - on both counts. Sweet **** music, my friend.

Every now and then I have this fantasy about dropping Karl Childers off at CP's house.

It actually feels bad if pulling a trigger.

Two things you do NOT want when doing this:
ANY gritty feel at all. Once the trigger breaks loose and begins to travel, smooth is all you want.
The other is "stacking". This is the feel of increasing resistance as the trigger travel compresses the spring.

Sometimes "break in" will reduce or even complete fix the first issue.
It takes new parts to help the second.

Considering they are both people persons I'd imagine they'd get along just fine. Unlike some bougie red headed adopted Jews I know on here.

Thanks for the info.  I already have the 9 Plus.

I have this fantasy about you breaking into my house. I use "stand your ground" and "castle doctrine" at my leisure.

It certainly beats the drag of a double action.

I hear he brings the best meth.

I doubt you'd be able to part company, fruitcake.

Well, anchors on wet sand and retards on piccolos, I know. On gun triggers I bow to your expertise, sir.
