cazio320 in 45
Hello everyone, I have many 99mm and 45cap handguns and have been carrying my Sig 320 in 9mm, recently I saw some 320 45acp LEO trade in and was thinking of getting one. They have both compact and fullsize, any thoughts on this one? I usually carry a Kimber pro cdp or Sig 320, 239 or 228. Please any thoughts would be appreciated.

.38supersigSounds like they would be fun.
Just about everything else is a 9mm anyway.

YooperSigsCurrently carrying a 320 .45 Compact with manual safety. I put a flat trigger in it. Carrys and shoots like a 1911.

TrojanX4Bummer you missed out. I own a full and a compact size P320 45, they both shoot equally well. Not a noticeable difference in recoil or accuracy in my experience. Compact mags only hold 9 rounds flush, but you can use the full size mags and it will extend past the magwell. They did make a carry sized grip that can fit 10 round magazines if you can trace one down, or you can do surgery and cut the front end down on a full size frame to fit the compact slide and get 10 round capacity that way.
For CCW I would definitely opt for the compact version. I use the full version as my home defense handgun.
The only downside is there is no aftermarket support for this model. The old school P320 Gen 1 factory grips are the only option. It's a fine grip, but it would be nice to have more options.
FYI there appears to be a ton of them available on the most popular gun auction site right now.

remsigMy EDC is a compact 45 320 with no safety (one of the original 320 45's to come out.)
I carry it in a Don Hume IWB black leather holster loaded with Winchester SXT's and it carries great and feels very comfortable.
