I've carried my g43 with +1 floorplates for years,which gives me 8rds 9mm.  I'd like 10 rds. Is there a mag/follower option that will give me 10rds without bulk?

The 43 is my wife’s carry gun and I’d like to see Glock/Mec-Gar step up and make a ten round mag for it.

ETS...  

Good luck with that.  

Their G42 and G19 mags worked 'ok' when I had some.  

Their G43 mags were absolute $hit.  Tried to get some fix / restitution from their customer service, but in the end it was easier to just throw them in the trash.   I had about 8 of them, all turned an otherwise reliable Glock into a craptastic jam-o-matic.

I still have the G19 mags but they are in the box of stuff to sell if ppl get desperate in the next mag ban.

Only thing I trusted on a G43 was the Pearce +1s and the Vickers +2s.

My Taran Tactical +3 magazine extensions get me there with one in the chamber.

And Taran Tactical extensions are all that the local police department allows.

If you’re going run extended magazines,you may as well get a 43X. 15 rounds on board plus one of the pipe. And your grip is now the same length

This. Or just run the 10 rounders to keep the weight down.

I wonder how many people realize all you need is a lower and a mag.  Micro dagger frames and SCT micro frames are cheap

Holy smokes, you ain't kidding.  Those frames are on sale @PSA for $50 right now, plus $25 for a 15 round magazine. Killer deal.

Grit grips are also only 70 or so.  

Have one on the way to try.
