My wife's car was at the shop this morning and we were killing some time at Academy . Believe it or not the guy at the gun counter was pretty knowledgeable on the various guns and the features of each one . When I couldn't find exactly what I was looking for he recommended a SIG P365 . The only problem was they didn't have one in stock . We left there and found one at a gun shop down the street . It was everything he said it was and it came home with me . I tried to call around and compare prices but NOBODY else in town had one . They all said they can't keep them in stock . It's about the same size as my Glock 43 but it holds 4 more rounds and has a better trigger . I'm looking forward to trying it out next week .

Nice!

I haven't shopped for a P365 yet, I guess I know how it would turn out.

Nine years a member and a plastic SIG is your first one? You need a several 22Xs.

I have a couple of them. Based on experiences of some who have checked in, put ample ammunition through your P365 before you decide to carry it. Make sure it doesn't have problems.

I decided that a thousand rounds at a minimum needed to go through it, though there have been reports of the problems surfacing close to the thousand round mark. A widely-circulated internet video by "MAC" experienced a failure between 900 and 1000 rounds. In their case, the trigger became "dead" and wouldn't work unless the pistol was held upside down.

Striker failures and failures of the trigger spring have been reported on this forum.

I have had zero issues with the P365 so far, including the ones I purchased, and range rentals when first trying them out. I'm impressed with the pistol, though with a healthy dose of skepticism. I want to like it, and will like it more after it's had more ammunition through it.

Put my name on a waiting list this week and I've had lots of P2xx SIGs and still do. Bought a P320 Carry recently.

It's interesting how many companies have polymer as they bread and butter for pistols and up until recently SIG just couldn't seem to make a really successful foray into the polymer realm.

The SigPro just never seemed to really take off for the most part. The P250 didn't really make it either. Now with the P320 it seems like they have have finally made it.

Congrats on your new P365!

More Sigs will probably follow you home now, it is what happens.

IMHO, there can be no substitute for the West German P226 and P220. Do not pass Go, do not collect $200 until you have one or the other.
