FWIW, I don't recommend using any dot sights other than maybe night sights on a 43, but not much is out there that will help you see in daylight, other than a top mounted reflex sight. A reflex sight, light, or anything that ads to the profile of the Glock 43 just makes it less viable for what it was designed for. The lasers that replace the spring are not intrusive, but still don't help much during the day. Lasers reveal your location to the BG when it's dark. The BG sees the laser and usually one of two things happen. They bust outta there like a bean burrito at 10,000ft, or they immediately shoot at where the laser is coming from. Remember, with a laser, it takes a little time to acquire your target in the dark, so you reveal your location. Single stack 9mm isn't designed to have "stuff" attached to it. What I have learned is that with practice, in any fight or flight life or death situation, you won't be aiming at anything, you'll be pointing in the direction of the threat at normally very close range. The best advice I can give is learn to shoot instinctively. Get at the 5 yard mark wherever you practice, or 10 yard mark and shoot with both eyes open getting a feel for the pistol in your hand and the point of impact on the target. Do it enough until it becomes instinctively consistent. You'll be more accurate when you need to be. Believe me, when you need it, you're not going to think about taking the time to find that little dot, you're going to shoot with intent of eliminating the threat that made you draw your weapon in the first place.
