It would kinda 'seem' that way, but it doesn't 'feel' that way at all. I would think that if the Trigger Shoe was just along for the ride, you'd feel the pressure of the trigger pull on the Dingus/blade, except I couldn't even perceive/feel the Dingus at all. I believe the pad of my Trigger finger may be more sensitive that some (most?), but it was as if the Dingus wasn't even there. The feel was unlike ANY other Trigger that featured a Dingus that I've experienced...I've tried them all and the Dingus was never NOT noticeable to me. I'm not sure how it works, but they move together (essentially linked together), and you feel the pressure of the trigger pull across the entire Trigger shoe. ____________________________________________________________ If Some is Good, and More is Better.....then Too Much, is Just Enough !!

That's what I think the design is, the shoe engages the trigger spring, and the Dingus engages the trigger bar. _____________________________________________ Proverbs 3:31 "Envy thou not the oppressor, and choose none of his ways." | |||

That part sounds really promising. | |||

Is there any insight into this “recoil dampening system” that they are hyping? From what I can gather, from a video or two, it seems it is that little blue part inside the frame in the photo FenderBender posted. What exactly is this? Is it just a grip weight? Does it move or do anything to actively affect recoil? | |||

| probably a good thing I don't have a cut |
No talk about other calibers in the future? Even if only maybe? | |||

you would be correct. Ben Stoeger is a PHENOMENAL shooter in the competiton world. Absolutely phenomenal teacher too. But he is a troll and he loves drama. this isn't me just saying that either. Ben has openly stated that he's a troll through and through, and loves to seek out drama on the internet and p oke the bear. that's his entire youtube persona. As such, he found something to give him troll bait for years with the P320 issues, and has just gotten worse over the years. it's frustrating as he's a great shooter and could be a great asset to the gun community, but he loves to get his jollies off trash talking companies and sticking his oar into drama just to have fun messing with people | |||

informative vid with details. Poly insert looks interesting https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NvJhqdYkYbY Joe Back in Tx. | |||

Or, take the 10 seconds with a pair of side cutters to nip off the "ears" on the older baseplates. Same as you had to do with the various X-series grip modules for the P320. Either swap or modify the older baseplates.
I wonder what the expected lifespan of the compressible shock absorber insert is... I don't think I've ever seen that on a handgun before. But some rifle designs, including several Marlins, have something similar at the rear of the receiver that the bolt impacts. | |||

It reminds me of the recoil buffer on my Beretta 92a1. The pistol was designed to handle .40 caliber. As far as I know, the 92a1, 96a1 and 90-Two are the only pistols in the 92 series to have this feature.

Looks like the insert is to lighten the impact of the spring/rod on the block which could account for it feeling smoother than the 365s. | |||

From the P385 product page on SIG's website: What is the SIG SAUER Recoil Dampening System (SRDS)? SRDS is the recoil-dampening system integrated into the P385 grip module to help improve felt recoil and control. It works by absorbing vibration in the recoil system, in conjunction with the pistol’s low bore axis to reduce the amount of movement experienced during firing. This helps the shooter maintain a more consistent sight picture and recover more quickly between shots. ____________________________________________________________ If Some is Good, and More is Better.....then Too Much, is Just Enough !!

I am going to be in for a full size unit once they become available so long as I can get one for MSRP or less. Rogue - Thanks for your suggestion as I have quite a few 17rd and 21rd P320 mags. I will give it a try once I get a P385. | |||

Take a look at your baseplates. If they have a square retaining hole, they're already the latest generation and will be compatible. If they have a round retaining hole, they're the older version with the thicker ears, and you'll need to either cut/grind off the ears or replace the baseplate and retaining plate in order for them to be compatible. | |||

Slick piece of Marketing right there. Will be interesting to see how much it cannibalizes the larger 365 variants. | |||

This LOOKS like it is what the 320 should have been from the start. I don’t trust a thing Ron Cohen has his hands in but this looks promising. Hopefully it’s made with actual quality parts and with some actual quality control. I feel like SIG NEEDS to knock this one out of the park. Like I said though this looks good. I like what they’ve done (on paper at least) Take Care, Shoot Safe, Chris | |||

Thank you Rogue for this detail and the pictures. I would not have known this without your post and pictures. This will provide me with exactly what I need to determine what I have. Thanks again Sir. | |||

Yeah, I can't help but notice the product page doesn't even bother to mention the caliber. It lists magazine capacity but doesn't specify caliber. I wouldn't hold my breath for anything other than 9mm. SIG has in the past had a bad habit of teasing product variants that never saw the light of day; hopefully they've taken that lesson and are keeping mum about things that are not guaranteed to be released. I've been saying for years that SIG needs to be like Apple: announce a product and have it available to purchase (in large numbers) the next day. | |||

Prepared for the Worst, Providing the Best |
For those of you wanting other calibers, I wouldn't hold my breath. Like it or not it's a 9mm world and nothing else really sells enough to make production costs worth it. Sig hasn't offered guns in .40/.357 for years now, and they've pretty much killed off the .45 lines too. There is a .380 P365 variant and the X-Ten, but those are kinda niche market items. To me it looks like a bigger P365, which I'm not super excited about. Tbe 365 is fiddly to work on, not as reliable as the P320, and I don't care for the grip size and shape, which unfortunately seems to be the inspiration for this one. I've been carrying a P320 since 2017 and so far have been completely satisfied with it, internet hysteria aside, so it's going to take something kinda special to get me to jump. I'm not sure of the dimensions....if it's noticeably slimmer and lighter than the 320 yet fills the hand better than a 365, AND proves to be as reliable as a 320 while using the same Mags, I could get excited about that. ----------------------------------------------------------- Any comments made by this poster are my own and do not reflect the views or opinions of my employer. | |||
