I'm curious about the manufacturing dates on the P365. I see people referencing the specific date their P365 was manufactured on (or maybe the term is "born on") but I'm not sure what that means. Is there a specific date range that is preferable? Why is this important? Just curious.

I have a P365 manufactured on March 22, 2018.

People talk about how recently it was manufactured mainly because of "Gen 1" (not an official designation) guns. The first run of P365s had some issues with lockup, dead night sights, etc. Some of those issues were worked out, and now "Gen 2" guns (manufactured more recently) have some different issues (dead trigger springs, broken firing pins). At some point all of the kinks will be worked out, and I'm sure "Gen 3" will begin being referenced.
