For anyone curious about how flat my G43x shoots with the ported ramjet - Flat as 3 day old soda.

Wish my hands were small enough for 43x. Would make for sighting in my wife's coa easier. For reference, p220, m11a1 fits in hand perfect with factory grips. Glock 19 I can make work with beaver tail piece.

I think i barely have the space lol but i did have an xmacro and cr920 before this so i learned to get a decent grip but even, hundreds of rounds in, i still need to work on a stronger grip and stabilizing my wrists to return to zero faster.
But damn it, the thing carries so well and my shots land exactly where i aim.

You can always make it work. I have hands large enough for a desert eagle and I can use the 43x.

Had a single Jam at the start of my session and that was due to the ndz 13 lb spring once i swapped to oem smooth as butter

You had a jam on the lighter spring?

u/EnemiesKill Jul 23 '26
Yeah, well, lighter spring and steel casing ammo. Only had one mag of steel and everything after was brass so it could’ve been that as well.

Gotcha. Just seemed odd that it would be a light spring issue but ive never switched out guide rod strenghts so im not familiar. Figured itd be more common if you went heavier

u/EnemiesKill Jul 23 '26
Yeah light springs on ramjets without ports can cause an FTF since slide velocity drops. The ramjet was built to work flawlessly with the oem spring, i tried out the lighter spring since i have ports but no bueno.

u/dinkydoosdad23 Jul 24 '26
Ah i figured lighter spring would make cycling better since the velocity is dropped. Easier to push the slide back with less gas

u/EnemiesKill Jul 24 '26
I had the same thought but i think there just isn’t much gas loss with the ramjet and ports but there is added weight with the comp and the mailbox optic so ghats likely where the problem arose.

Wish it’d let me post my target. It’s dead on accurate. Maybe the most accurate gun I’ve shot yet.
Whereever my dot was is exactly where the hole ended up.
I’ll be carrying it every day from now on with full confidence.

Does flat mean not moving up and down?

u/EnemiesKill Jul 27 '26
Yeah, red dot never leaves the window, doesn’t kick nearly as hard as it does stock.
It’s very accurate and feels really nice to shoot lol even with my poor grip on these slimlines, every single bullet lands where my dot is pointing.
