Which kit is that? Is it the same Action Enhancement kit Apex makes for the Shield 1.0 & 2.0?

Still on the fence & learning
I saw the p365X has a longer handle & shorter slide like my Glock 43X
I will look for one of those or get a P365 when one comes at the right price & then buy a grip module & magazine for it too
Really like the looks of the NRA Edition P365 that comes with three different magazines

My Next Purchase will more than likely be another Ruger 10/22
There's a Pawn Shop in Louisville that shows they have four older ones now

They show having a 1994 @ $199, 2 x 1998 @ $319 & a 2009 @ $289

Never made it over there & it's NICE Today = 70 degrees & have some running to do around southern Indiana with my Wife so that's out today
I will make it there & be ready to score a good used 10/22, OR should I just buy a New One?

The P365 will come IF I decide on one & the price is right
And as far as the Shield Plus goes it's no better than my Shield 2.0 except mine has a rougher texture & 7/8 round magazines
Mine has a great trigger & pull

Hey what did you do with the factory Shield Plus trigger limblessbif? Do you want to sell it?

I put an Apex Trigger Kit in my S&W SD9 & it came out fantastic BTW

I wouldn't mind having a Glock Style trigger shoe instead of the hinged one, That's why I ask
LMK if you want to get rid of the factory trigger shoe or bar etc
I'd guess the trigger bars are different because of the magazine capacity is larger
Just something I was thinking about

Am I missing something? Confused
Those are four (possibly five) guns w/ widely different manual of arms.

I suppose if your P226 is a SAO model and your RAMI & P365s are manual safety models, then they all can be carried cocked & locked.

The single manual of arms thing is total BS IMO
Learn to shoot whatever you have
I have had 1911s,Hk P7M8 squeeze cocker, SA/DA hammer fired autos, DAO only, revolvers, Striker fired auto etc etc

I will have to say my SIG P320 has a great trigger & it almost makes me not want to send it back for the disconnector "Upgrade", I have two months to decide as SIG Sauer sent me a shipping label out 2-3 weeks ago & haven't thought about it much since
The X-Grip module fits my hand great & the two older gen 1 magazines needed the tabs thinned down to work but got a forum member two send me a couple He worked down, so I just put the gen 1 floor plates with the old grip module in the box

When did SIG stop sending holsters with their guns?? That's a Nice Touch because it makes you feel complete when you buy it, even though there are many others out there

Somewhere in my stash I have several of those blue master locks that used to come with the P220-P239s, If I had an older P22? I would want one to complete the case if it were missing

After some serious contemplation I have decided to not pursue the SIG Sauer P365 BUT if one comes at a great price, I MIGHT snag it up...
Really it can do nothing that my Glock 43X can
It's paid for & cost me $350 with night sights
My M&P Shield is also paid for & cost $259
I might have gotten good deals on both of them but that's why I have them = It was meant to be
Thanks for the answers & conversation on the Topic P365
Still have my P320 & just ordered two magazine floor plates so I can use the Gen 1 magazines with my X-Grip Module, I have two that are modified but they just aren't Pretty

Stay Safe & Well Armed with whatever you have be it a SIG Glock Hk S&W etc.

I really can't help you with this if your aim is to be talked into it. I fondled one while in one of my LGS' a month or so back, just looking around. "Everybody's raving about those," I told the clerk, "mind if I...?" She took one out for me.

Did not like. At all.

Mind you: I don't much care for striker-fired pistols in the first place. But some are tolerable for me. The P356 I handled was not one of those.

Well, I for one, am not the person to talk you out of purchasing a 365. Wink

For what is worth the plain 365 i can fit 2 fingers on it the 365X i can fit 3 fingers on it, so better grip on the 365X.
That HK 2000 USP Compact is sweet!!

It’s the kit for the 2.0 but I just got the $80 one that just has the springs and sear. The stock trigger shoe is pretty nice. The thing is damn near as good as it gets for a carry gun
