Glock 43? (single stack 9mm)

Range report:
It feels alright in the hand, but i wish it had a more aggressive grip. A stipple job would be on my list of mods for sure. It's like a subdued gen 4 texture. I can get my little finger on the grip with the extender, but you don't get an extra round and i won't be carrying it with the extender, so i can only get my middle and ring finger on it.
I put 100 rounds through it with no malfunctions. Shooting 2 handed my grip covers the slide release and it never locked back on empty. As this is a backup, it's not a problem really. When I'm out, I'm out.
As far as accuracy, it's accurate. Lol. Recoil wasn't bad, but i found fast follow up shots harder than with the 26, probably because i had less to get my hand around.
Overall, it's a glock like any other. It's not groundbreaking. It's not special. It's got the same number of rounds as a revolver with the failure possibilities of a semi. I think it will be a good backup gun because it's very thin, small, reliable, and has the same trigger pull and manual of arms as my duty glock.
However, for someone looking for a ccw, i think it's good but not great. There are other proven single stack 9s out there that are reliable, cheaper, hold more rounds, and are the same size *cough shield*.
A big thank you to Kankles for letting me demo his pistol. Great meeting you!
No video of the 43 but here's my emergency reload drills from the same day with my 22
