I did take the P365 out to the range today. 200 rounds of Fiocchi 115gr FMJ and 20 rounds of Speer Gold Dots 124gr +P.
No problems at all. Gun ran flawlessly. Feels great and the texturing and the right hand seem that I thought would bother me didn't. Recoil felt slightly less than the G43.
Gun is more accurate than I am (but I only shoot at 10 yards).
I also took out a Walther P99C and Sig P250SC and I shot the P365 better than all of them. I just wish I didn't have to send it in to replace the sights.
The P365 will become my EDC.
What grease and lube did you use? |

| Just shot the SIG P365. If these are reliable then SIG has hit not only a home run but a Grand Slam. Awesome trigger and reset, nice build quality, super small and thin with a standard capacity of 10+1 and optional 12 round magazine in a size smaller than a G26, basically G43 sized. I have a large sized hand but the grip was perfectly comfortable. The range rental at Greenwood, Indiana Point Blank was well used and had been on the rental rack for a week. Super dirty and dry, no lube at all. Functioned perfectly with some super weak Midwest Industries FMJ 115 grain ammoPoint Blank sells. I field stripped it. Very tight little pistol. I found no abnormal signs of wear or peenjng of barrel or slide. There was finish wear on the outside of the barrel which looked normal for a SIG.

| I also think they have a real winner with the P365. Picked one up Friday and so far have put 500 rounds through it. I shot 300 rounds of assorted 115gr JHP and 200 rounds of Federal 115gr FMJ range ammo. Not one FTF or FTE. I did clean and lube it before going to the range, it was really loaded up with grease when I got it. I very surprised at how pleasant it was to shoot considering it's size.
It seems to be as small as my Kahr CM9, but shoots better and has more rounds. I can actually pocket carry it. Never thought I would have a eleven round 9mm that I could pocket carry. |

| Hey Guys,
Where do I go to order a P365 online. I've never purchased online before. Who has them in stock?
Thanks |

| Are you able to duplicate the FTF like in the previous video by using the slide release to chamber a round after reloading? quote quote: Originally posted by dcowboyscr:

| He said he was seeing some failures to go into battery, if he didn't sling shot the slide, when first charging the pistol. So might it just be an issue with weaker ammo not moving the slide back far enough for the springs it has? I wonder if the same issue would be seen, if some warmer or +P ammo was used?

| I'm just wondering if the recoil spring is too light. But this is something SIG should have shaken out pretty easily in testing. |

Could also be a very tight extractor that is hanging up on the case rim. My 320 in 45 had that problem when I got it. Tension was so tight you needed tow fingers to slide a fresh cartridge into the extractor from below. I have a 250 that SIG fixed due to well known early extractor problems, and I compared the tension and clearance between the claw and the both face and it was much tighter. I did my own adjustments to match the 250 and 100% flawless after that.

| Time will tell and I wouldn't judge based on the feedback of a few forum members either. While they will be a sampling, a wider audience/sampling would be good to have. Especially since this is being marketed as a 24x7 carry gun for the masses.

| A local Sig rep always shows up to a particular gun shop/custom holster maker for holsters for the new Sig hotness. He showed up with the first P210 they had seen, and this week showed up with a P365. It wasn't there long enough for me to run over and see it, but the owner said he thought it felt great and he wouldn't hesitate to get one if I was interested. Unfortunately, he said they are hard to find, so I have him looking for one for me. He also confirmed that anything produced after the initial release will have XRAY3 sights instead of Siglites.

| That’s interesting about the sights. I like the X-ray sights. That would be a welcI me addition for me for sure. |

| Picked mine up Saturday and shot it Sunday.
100rounds of Federal FMJ - flawless
25 rounds 124 Gr +P HSTs --flawless
P365 is closer in size to the G42 than the G43.
Accuracy and controlability are outstanding...Rapid fire is especially easy in this gun. Great trigger.
Snappy?? no way....unless you are ultra recoil sensitive. Softer shooting than any 9mm I have ever fired....really. |
