Possibility exists that Sig bought rights to Jones' application.

Still, since we are talking about a Sig striker fired pistol, one should wait until at least the first recall or at least one year.

So the patent on the P365 magazine may not just be marketing mumbo jumbo? Thanks for the information.

It is, I assure you. Everyone has patents for everything. For example, every piston upper has a patent. Saying, “the new super bad ass upper in 5.56 has a patented design that is sure to knock down bears in one shot!” People who think “patent pending” means something, such as yourself apparently, are exactly the folks this marketing mumbo jumbo is aimed at.

Oooooh, it’s “patented?!?!?!?”

Saying something is “patented” by default is marketing mumbo jumbo. Heck, I bet the flip flops I’m wearing right now have a patent on them.

If it’s truly revolutionary, then the patent will hold and others won’t be able to copy it. Wanna bet Glock and S&W have a version of the 365 in no time? Name the number and I’ll bet you.

Still waiting for you to tell me what the 365 mag is made of since you said it’s not made of metal...

if this isn’t any sort of revolutionary new design/technology, then why wasn’t there already a sub compact pistol as small as the P365 that could hold 10 to 12 rounds?

Far too much arguing on who developed the mag and resulting patents and not enough credit to SIG for producing a small functioning firearm which is something none of the other popular manufacturers have yet figured out.
Unless one is a 100% fanboy of one brand or another, this tiny firearm with it's great sights and shootability is something different and I suspect the other big names are scratching their heads and scrambling.

I spoke with Sig CS today and they are standard Sig Dovetails milled in the slide so the #6/#8 set for the 938 should work

Im having difficulty picking up the green front sight. This is not isolated to the 365. something Ive started to notice over the last 6 months (my eyes are getting old )

wanting to go with the orange front

I will wait a year for the recall and drop testing. By then if Glock hasn't made one I might consider it.
