G43x slide on dagger micro frame?

Im assuming it can be done. I understand most are doing it the other way around but for us that bought a 43x mos before they came out with the picatinny for a light, does the 43x slide work reliably on a dagger micro frame? Can you guys post pics if you have some and your thoughts compared to your oem 43x setup (any changes you notice like grip, features, etc) thankyou

I’ve got an original Glock 43x with the sliver slide, and nothing pic wise on the lower. Last week I was able to finally score a Micro Dagger C-1 in FDE. Soon as I got home with the new Micro, I tried swapping the completed slide onto my old 43x. And it fits Beautifully! Haven’t shot this setup yet, hoping to this weekend :crossed_fingers:

that C-1 tho… :drooling_face::drooling_face:
how dose it feel at the range?

i have a c1 on a glock 43x frame…it works…i even placed it on my 43…it works…

I only have a sample of one, but the C-1 I have racks and sounds exactly as strong as the Glock 43x I have. It’s identical looking to the 43x in the metal areas, locking block and everything reinforcement wise. I cleaned my C-1 first, lubed it up and now have installed Ameriglo Protector Sights. If the weather holds out this weekend, she’ll be properly broken in with a nice little 500 round break in range session. It shipped with one slick mag, but about 6 months ago, I was lucky enough to place an order for 5 of the black/plastic micro mags.

I think I want the micro frame but I cant get it regardless it seems because its never in stock

well I ordered a C1 because I wanted a slide that I could put an optic on. eventually when the micro dagger frames become more accessible I’ll get one. btw… I shot my 43x with the micro dagger upper this last weekend 300 rounds flawless

Awesome! I have high hopes it’ll shoot just fine, not worried one bit. I really do prefer the Micro Dagger lower and grip texture. In my big dumb paws I can choke up on it a little higher, and from dry firing the crap outta it, no Glock-Knuckle soOo :crossed_fingers:

I understand you 100% about the Glock knuckles I have to undercut all my Glocks…

Yeah buddy, every 17/19/22 and just about every Glock I’ve ever shot (aside from the 44) has busted my middle finger knuckle something awful lol. Nothing to cry too hard about, but a new blister is not fun when ya swing a hammer at work 50 hours a week. Even when callused over, still Sucks lol.

What do you mean optics like have the extra barrel length so a light is flush with the end?

that’s aesthetics… kiki is talking about the social perception of his particular philosophical ideals in this matter

Amazing what a bit of sand paper on a sharpie can do.

i dont like my trigger finger sliding on the trigger guard as it pokes through.
anyone else get that?
i would slice off some but when i do that kind of thing sometimes it turns out bad sometimes it is ok.
no, not slice my finger, the inside of the trigger guard.

If it’s the seam on the inside doing it, use a razor blade, or fine grit sandpaper. But a razor blade is super easy, hard to mess up, and makes it pretty smooth.

I haven’t seen you using that finger for at least ten minutes…

They usually come into stock about 4:00 during the week. I scored one last week by setting up a back in stock notice. I happened to see the email come in and jumped right on it. At least for right now you have to be lucky and ready to jump when that email comes in

i used it on my nose one day and the ambulance had to ride me to the hospital.
i crashed a car and my nose long ago. i feel like i could only use one nostril at a time for 40 years. well the blood started streaming and the hospital stopped it, said go see this earn nose, throat doctor monday, it was sat or sun at the time.
he is a real nice guy, took his soldering iron and burned some stuff, told me to take these 2 nose inhalers. would you believe after a couple of days this PLUG of a thing came out of there and i am betting it was an original piece of packing. looked to me like a shotgun wad, the paper kind or like 3 nickels stacked.
I CAN BREATH. i can sleep with my mouth closed, i can breath awake with my mouth closed ITS AMAZING.
why me?
and you had to bring up using that finger.
im laughing but that is all true.

Assuming a compact slide fits on a micro frame? I have a full sized S frame w/compact slide. Looking to create as G19 clone with the swap.
