I swore I would never get one as I had no need for it or even desire to get one. I had plans on getting a Glock 48 but after holding it, it felt huge for a single stack pistol. So, after all the posts related to the P365 and me needing a newer gun with higher capacity and a larger caliber, I finally had to see what all the hub-bub was about.

I had always seen them at the gun stores but never actually picked one up. Well, I was hooked when I finally held one and color me amazed, at how they made such a small pistol with the ability to hold 10 rounds in 9mm. I had a gift card to Bass Pro and their prices were in line to other shops and even on line, so I bought it.

My son and I took it to the range right after and put it through it's paces. I brought a bunch of different types of ammo- Magtech,Federal, Winchester and a couple others. We put about 350 rounds through it without issue. Recoil was not bad at all for such a compact pistol, a lot less than I thought it would be. Accuracy was pretty amazing as well for a small barrel. I only shot it out to about 15-20 yards. The mag. springs were very strong to load at first but I had a Mag-lula loader, which is another amazing tool, so that made it easy. Did I mention how compact this thing is? I was talking to a few other people at the shop and they were all amazed how Sig made a pistol as small as they did in 9mm and fits perfectly.

I know this is nothing more than what everyone here already knows. Also,I don't understand why other manufacturers don't jump on this bandwagon by making a small compact pistol with it's capacity. Now I have to make sure my wife doesn't see it as she will take it as her own.

Just buy her one too.

More than likely,that is what will happen. She carries a gen 1 LCP and the Sig P365 is not much bigger. I can't get over how nice this pistol is.

Yeah, and Ruger and Smith will follow, soon.

Not that I am bashing them but Glock's latest big deal gun should have been something like the p365 not a .22, in my opinion. Of all of the brands, how did they not come out with one?

Anyway, I am quite happy with my choice. It is amazing how well this fits in the hand with such a small grip.

Yep, it is a fine weapon, ya did well.
