Does anybody know if you can perches the p365xl fire control unit. I have all the parts for a 365 just need the fire control unit. I know that's the part that requires an FFL. Thank you for any information.
I would look at Internet auction sites like GunBroker.
I’m not sure, though, I know what you mean by saying that you have “all” the parts except the fire control unit. The FCU consists of multiple parts like the trigger and sear housing, and not only the one-piece U-shaped serialized receiver that holds those parts. It’s important to use the proper term when looking for something like that.

Okay, then I did understand correctly. I am not aware that SIG has released any complete fire control units for the P365 as they have for the P320. But a quick search turned up this one.
Just FYI, the fcu on the 365 is a major pita to assemble. I installed an Armory Craft trigger in mine and it did not go as planned. I got it all back together, but shesh.

It is indeed. The key is doing stuff in the proper order...once you have that figured out, it's not that bad. However, since everything is miniturized and crammed in there, some parts require the removal of a significant number of other parts before you can access the one you're after.

I actually found it easier to install a straight trigger in my P365 than it is to replace the trigger bar spring of a P320.
There are several videos on the subject, including one linked by Grayguns.
But if the OP finds a complete fire control unit as he is seeking, there will be no disassembly/assembly required: just drop it into the grip module and install the receiver retention pin.

This video was pretty helpful. My P365XL had been purchased new, taken apart and the owner sold it with the parts in a cup. Deal was pretty decent and I gambled. This video was pretty helpful and now it's just a matter of order with install.
