I’ve had this on my buy list for a while but for right price. Just got alert of in stock at Sportsman outdoor superstore (SOSS) and have one inbound.
Was not expecting...need to figure what will tell the wife. Will post a range report once in hand.This message has been edited. Last edited by: FlyingScot,

Yes and thank you corrected. Ordered on phone in Uber as I’ve had this disappear on me before - so jumped on it when saw email. Best price I’ve seen.

They have had these for that price for a long time. It’s a bit of an odd duck. No rear sight, weird front sight, slide lightening cuts, nickel finish. These were probably a retailer specific model or order and Sportsman ended up with the bulk of them.

Right. This is not the standard P320 Compact RX.
The optic is mounted higher up and further back than usual, necessitating a taller front sight and no traditional rear sight. But you do still have a backup rear sight of sorts, using the small notch at the rear of the Romeo optic.
(SOSS does have the standard version, but it's $829.99.)

Yes this is slightly different. No rear site except Romeo notch and two dimples. Sig says it is the Elite P320 RX. This has been the price (but have not been able to find in stock) and this is the one I wanted, prefer front blade vs siglite dot co-witness with the Red Dot.
No milled rear sight dovetail and Romeo 1 is further back, some additional milling to lighten the slide. Installed and zeroed at factory just like Regular RX.

Arrived today. Quite nice, need to get to range this weekend if not too crazy for a holiday weekend. Initial thoughts, quite a nice finish, the nickel PVD has a warmer gold tone than my pics show. The red dot site shows all movements and amazing how it stabilizes when you focus. The front blade / rear notch is simple to use but likely needs some contrast color. I like the dot site moved back and out of the way of brass eject. Trigger is short but “sproing!” - knew that and plan on apex trigger bar and trigger, supposed to fix. No rush on that.
Overall very happy and need to get to range.
