As title says, . . . just wondering when there will be a Flat Dark Earth Glock 43. Since I saw a G42 in FDE, I suspect a G43 in FDE, eventually. Might take awhile, but IF they are planning on doing one, I'm willing to wait.
 
FDE/Grey framed Glocks are Lipsey's exclusives so whenever they order them, they should be here. Was almost a year after the 42 was released until an FDE 42 was available.
 
Why not buy a 43 and duracoat or cerakote it yourself in FDE? Its not hard, I've done quite a few and its pretty fun. I did all of these with duracoat and so far the finish has held up perfectly.

Why not cerakote it? Well, I will probably have it reduced [the grip bump], and I think it looks great when a FDE frame is stippled.

Plus, a frame that is already FDE is less likely to show black if it gets scratched.

I can wait for Lipseys to bring out the FDE G43. I just hope they don't wait as long as they did with the G42.
