Glock 43 vs. Glock 26 Carry Comparison


After hours of researching, I believe I’ve narrowed my decision down to two options for my first concealed carry gun: Glock 43 and Glock 26.My question: for CCW, how much more difficult is it, if any, to conceal the G26 than the G43? I like the idea of having the G26 as a home defense gun with a larger magazine, as well as a carry/car gun with the standard 10-round mag. But I also like the size of the G43. Does the extra 1/4” width of the G26 make that big of a difference?To give you a better idea, I’m 5’11, 250 lbs. I have a relatively standard frame. I typically wear shorts and t-shirt in the summer while I wear jeans and t-shirt/button up shirt in the winter. I would also use this gun when hiking and occasionally when running.If you have any recommendations, including holsters, or other things to consider, I’m all ears. I would like to get more guns in the future, but I want to make this one count as it will probably be a while before the next one, or it will be one for my wife to carry.Full disclosure: I have not fired these guns yet. I plan to go to my local range next week and rent them to see how it goes. I did inspect and hold the two guns this weekend. via /r/CCW http://bit.ly/2YVD1Kg
