I carry a 4043 and several mags in my "bag" that is transferred between vehicles, motels, and home. On most trips it is moved to an "easy reach" location within the vehicle. Except of course when traveling to Illinois.
It has never failed to fire. It is a good caliber. The double action only is an easy transition for me from a revolver or even my 4566. I also have a 4046.
The alloy frame shows shiny spots from contact wear and the night sights are dim, but it is my "go-to-gun". The price is about in line with what mine cost and what the 4046 cost from Bud's plus transfer.
Try it.
