P365 Sight Adjustment
Looking for a MGW 'shoe' to fit the p365 was fruitless, until i stumbled upon information provided by E_Shaw90 elsewhere. His suggestion was to purchase an MGW # 105 shoe, make it slightly narrower, and mill a groove; so i did. It works. Photo shows the shoe, and the slide held by the shoe, and the front sight being pushed to the right to make the bullets hit more left.

Not having my own mill or drill press, when does production start? Big Grin

Nice woodworking bench and thats great making your own tools.

I adjusted mine the old fashioned way vice, piece of leather, block of hickory and a hammer. if your careful it works just fine, But I like your way much better.

With my Sigh Pro, I simply snugged down the four side feet to the 365's slide while it rested in the tool with no shoe. The stock sights came off fairly easily and the new sights went on smoothly.

I wouldn't recommend winging it like this on something like an XD series slide, but it works well for most other slides, I've found.




"Also I heard the voice of the Lord saying who shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, here am I, send me."

A while back I spoke with the owner of MGW. He told me the 365 shoe was in production. Haven't seen one yet listed but Brownells or Midway might have them by now. MGW does not sell direct so that isn't an option.

I've been checking Brownell's every few months, and again just now. No 365 shoe listed there yet.

Thanks for the info! Did they happen to give you the shoe number?

I ordered one from Brownells on Monday. There’s a 6 to 8 week wait. The shoe number is 153
