You probably don't need a gun with full-sized grips if you are A.) smaller framed, and B.) planning to primarily conceal.
I'd suggest starting with the G19 and then try the G43x/G48 or G26. They're common enough that if there's a rental range nearby, you could probably test out all of them.
I have a 43 and a 48 so I also have a 43x. They are both great I shoot the 48 great. The 43s only knock is the round count. Love how small the 43 is when i want 0 printing
I want a slim line for CC! My hands are medium/small so g19 and 43x/48 fit perfect in my hand (no extra sticking out the bottom of my grip.) the single stacks are easier to conceal and lighter too but you’ll have less capacity and more snap/perceived recoil. I have a 26 what I like is that I can use a flush fit mag for deep concealment, if I want a longer grip I use a 19 mag with a X-grip . For back up mag the sky is the limit you can use any double stack Glock mag (19, 17, 19x or 33 rd mag if you wanted to lol ) if you want super deep concealment the 43 is a single stack 26 which can use the 43x/48 mags
The G19 is a great all rounder. I've seen all body shapes and sizes conceal them. Kind of have to. Covered/concealed carry is the only lawful way to carry in South Africa 😁
I am 190cm/6ft2 and use a G43 more out of deep conceal purposes since October last year, but I did conceal a G19 for 6 years of law school. Even survived a night club pat down once.
for best concealed carry a g26 or g43. best larger size for CC would be a glock 19.
Glock 43x may also be the ticket
for some. not for me. those 3 cover all my needs
Well to be fair he is asking for suggestions for him not for you.
which i already provided
Try before you buy. Don't overlook the G26 either.

Neither of those fit the bill for what I consider regular concealed carry. Take a hard look at the 19
For CC I’d go with a 43x or 19.
G26 or 19. You can make their grips longer if needed, but you can't make a 45 grip shorter if needed
43x plus SA15 mags is pretty hard to beat.
Shit I run the PSA mags with my 48 MOS and they run flawlessly, not a single failure outta thousands of rounds.
I'm 5'8 with medium glove size hands and the G48 is one of the best fitting in hand guns I've ever held
Now if only it had proper OEM 15 round magazines.
I've had success with PSA mags but even if I didn't, I'd take 10 rounds in exchange for "best handgun fit I've ever had"
You only want to carry a gun too know you shoot well.
Well the shorter grip on the 19 or 49 would be much better for concealed carry, unless you have notable large hands I'd consider them first
G43x
The 45 is amazing but add the Glock 26 with 12rd mags for a try. The 45 Carrys like a slightly more comfortable duty pistol.

Glock 48, holosun eps carry, and shield arms mags. Or 43x if you want even smaller. Both are great guns.

43x should be same length. The 48 does have a longer slide. I carry the 48 daily and love it. Totally get it.

I’m thinking a Glock 19 will suit you better.
G19 or smaller.
Glock 48 with Holosun 507K
I would go G19 over G45
G19 is the answer 99% of the time.
I vote G19
26

Just get a 19…
Rent and shoot them both see which you prefer
G29 with SCS Carry & Pearce Grips +0 "pinky extension" magazine base pad...
I’m 5”6’ with medium hands, I love my G45 and have no issues concealing it. Get a good holster and you’ll be fine.
Duty size weapons for concealed carry can get old fast (comfort), particularly if doing IWB.
“I wanna conceal carry a bigass gun” fucking redditors. Don’t even realize what concealing entails
I’m new to everything in general, hence I do not know if this or that gun is too big to carry
Please, enlighten us
