The Glock 43 is already one of the most popular single-stack 9mm carry guns out there, and ETS built this magazine specifically to make it a little better. The SMK-GLK-43 holds 7 rounds of 9mm Luger while still sitting flush with the magwell, giving you one more round than the standard 6-round OEM mag without any grip extension or added length sticking out the bottom. For a gun built around concealment, that matters.
The body is made from ETS's advanced impact-resistant polymer in a carbon smoke finish that's semi-translucent, letting you see your round count and confirm ammo type at a glance without needing to drop the mag. The polymer is also rated to hold up against heat, cold, UV exposure, and harsh chemicals, so it won't turn brittle sitting in a range bag or a hot car over time. The feed lips and body are creep-resistant, meaning you can leave this thing loaded without worrying about it taking a set and causing feed problems down the road.
Disassembly is straightforward thanks to ETS's specially designed base plate, and the floor plate is shaped to give you a solid grip when drawing from a mag pouch. It's also compatible with Glock-pattern aftermarket floor plates if you ever want to swap in something extended or customized. ETS makes their magazines in the USA and backs them with a lifetime guarantee, which is worth noting when you're comparing this to other aftermarket options at a similar price point.
This is a solid pick for anyone who carries a G43 and wants a reliable spare mag that doesn't compromise the gun's slim profile, or just wants to get a few more rounds downrange at the range before reloading.
Yes, the SMK-GLK-43 is designed to sit flush with the bottom of the G43's grip, just like the factory 6-round mag, even though it holds 7 rounds. You get the extra capacity without any basepad extension sticking out. It keeps the gun's slim profile intact, which is the whole point for a carry setup.
It is compatible with Glock-pattern aftermarket floor plates, so if you want to swap on a pinky extension or something from a third-party brand, it should work with most popular options. The ETS base plate is also designed for tool-free disassembly if you want to clean or inspect the internals. Just verify fitment with your specific aftermarket part before relying on it.
ETS uses a creep-resistant polymer for the feed lips and body specifically to address this. The design is intended to prevent the mag from spreading or deforming when stored fully loaded over time, which is a real concern with some polymer magazines. It's one of the features that separates ETS from cheaper generic options.
No, this is an aftermarket magazine made by Elite Tactical Systems Group, not Glock. It is designed to fit and function in the Glock 43 and is not manufactured or endorsed by Glock. ETS focuses exclusively on magazine production and backs their mags with a lifetime guarantee.
Both have the same capacity, dimensions, and feature set. The main difference is the finish and how much you can see through the body. The clear version is fully transparent, while the carbon smoke gives you a darker, more low-key look that still allows round count visibility without being as obvious as clear. It comes down to personal preference.
