If you’re looking for a concealed carry firearm that combines performance, reliability, and ease of use, look no further than the Glock 43X. Available at Dixie Pawn & Jewelry in Hollywood, FL, this popular handgun is an excellent choice for those seeking a high-quality, lightweight firearm. Whether you’re new to concealed carry or looking to upgrade your current sidearm, the Glock 43X is designed to meet the demands of personal defense while offering a sleek, comfortable profile.

Why Choose the Glock 43X for Concealed Carry?

The Glock 43X offers several key features that make it a top choice for those considering a concealed carry weapon:

Compact and Lightweight: The 43X’s slim profile and lightweight design make it easy to carry all day without sacrificing firepower.
10-Round Magazine Capacity: Despite its compact size, the Glock 43X offers a 10-round magazine, ensuring you have plenty of capacity when you need it most.
Comfortable Grip: The Glock 43X features a larger grip than other subcompact models, allowing for better control and accuracy.
Reliability: Glock is known for its rock-solid reliability, and the 43X continues that tradition, ensuring you have a dependable firearm when it counts.

At Dixie Pawn & Jewelry, we specialize in providing high-quality firearms, including the Glock 43X, so you can trust that you’re getting a genuine, expertly evaluated product.

Is the Glock 43X Still Worth the Money in 2025?

Absolutely. The Glock 43X continues to be one of the best-value handguns for concealed carry in 2025. It’s lightweight, reliable, and known for its slimline grip, which makes it easier to handle and conceal—especially for first-time carriers or those with smaller hands.

It’s often compared to the SIG Sauer P365, another popular concealed carry pick. But many users prefer the 43X because it offers:

A more comfortable grip without sacrificing control
Straightforward Glock reliability and ease of maintenance
Compatibility with aftermarket mags and upgrades
Strong resale and pawn value, especially in good condition with extra mags

While the Glock 19 remains one of our best-selling handguns for home defense and range use, the 43X is the go-to for daily carry. If you’re looking for a firearm that balances comfort, concealment, and resale value, the Glock 43X is still very much worth it.

Updated FAQs (2025 Edition)

Q: What do I need to bring to pawn or sell a firearm at Dixie Pawn?

Bring a valid government-issued photo ID. If pawning, you must be the legal owner and over 21. For firearm sales, you must be 21+ and legally allowed to possess a gun in Florida.

Q: Do I need a background check to buy or redeem a pawned firearm?

Yes. A background check is required by law and processed by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE). Whether you’re buying a gun outright or picking one up from pawn, the check must be completed—and a 5-business-day waiting period applies to all firearm sales.

Q: Do you accept Glock 43X with aftermarket slides or mags?

Yes, but the value depends on what was added and how it affects functionality. We always recommend bringing original parts as well.

Q: Can I pawn or buy a Glock 19 at Dixie Pawn?

Yes. The Glock 19 is still one of our top sellers for those who want a slightly larger frame without losing concealment potential. It’s also one of the most versatile pistols we see.

Q: How does pawning a firearm work?

Bring your unloaded firearm, valid ID, and any accessories. We’ll inspect the condition, check current resale values, and make a loan offer. Once your loan is repaid in full, including fees, we run a new FDLE background check before you can pick up the gun.
