Red dots for 365?
Any indication SIG might be considering red dot capability on the 365? It would only add a little bulk but would be a neat feature it seems to me.
Being a resident of A. Couno's socialist paradise a 10 round slim SIG has a lot of appeal.

To each his own but as slim as the P365 is as a single stack, I would have doubts that it would be viable w/o looking like you know what. The aftermarket probably wouldn't see the platform as a viable candidate to do the R&D. Basically, it's a high capacity pocket pistol size platform with the bonus of included night sights. Just my opinion, but what's not to like as it comes right from the factory.


Beware of a man whose only pistol is a 1911, he's probably very good with it.

Considering there are folks doing custom RMR cuts on G43s, Shields, and PM9s, I see no reason why they wouldn't/couldn't do the same on the P365. They're all roughly the same size.

I wasn't aware that anyone made the sight for a narrow slide but the image proves my point. It defeats the purpose of a purposely designed single stack concealed pistol and looks like you know what.

Again, just my opinion. Yours apparently differs. We're all made different. Razz

There is also a new Shield mini red dot sight coming out, thinner still. (The RMSc - Reflex Mini Sight Compact)

Not a fan of a red dot sight on a carry gun but others may be.

Thanks everyone that responded.
I was just curious as the trend toward red dots seems pretty big. I have a red dot on one pistol and am still not totally comfortable with it after several hundred rounds so I'm not ready to jump in and I do see both side of the issue.
