I own both G43 and G26. Both are among the very best 9mm for CCW. In fact, despite its age, I can’t think of a single 9mm designed for carry that really “bests” the G26.

The G43 is significantly smaller in hand than the G26. The difference in weight with loaded magazines is notifiable. The biggest difference is that the G43 is more comfortable to carry IWB (inside waistband) than the G26. This will be important for smaller framed people, but you fatties out there may not notice.

I shoot better with the G26 although at personal defense ranges (e.g., 5 yards) there isn’t much of a difference.

I am impressed with the new HK VP9SK. This is a tad larger than the G26 but like all HKs, very nice. SIG makes a new version of P225 which offers a full-size grip but relatively thin profile.
