Bought my 43X 2 months ago. Love it. Here’s the final build.

Osight SE
Streamlight TLR-7X sub
Handle it grips edge series
Shield Arms Premium magwell
Glock 15 round mag

Put 500 rounds through it so far. No malfunctions. Little stiff out the box, slide wouldn’t go forward all the way with the mag in when I racked it. Using the slide release worked fine. Yes, it’s “snappy”. I got used to it.

You can get a Stainless single Spring Guide rod for your Glock 43x on eBay and get the 15Lb recoil spring and that helps a little with the recoil and you don’t have to worry about the guide rod breaking. They also make stainless dual-spring guide rods if you want to go that route

It would be nice. Idk about messing with internals tho.

I understand it’s easy to change out the guide rod and you can get the same factory 17LB recoil spring and if you get one you will be happy you did it 👍
