He was using a Jedi mind trick. |

| Smith, Glock, Ruger, Kahr, etc managed to do it. Other than the magazine configuration, which shouldn't affect the action geometry/mechanics, there's nothing particularly different about the P365. quote: Originally posted by RoverSig:
One factor behind some of Sig's travails with the P365 is how hard it is to make a small pistol work well. The geometry of all that force and movement in such small dimensions is hard to get just right -- this affects a lot (if not all) small pistols. Even if designed really well, and executed really well, they can be ammo sensitive and wear out springs, peen barrel hoods, etc., at alarming rates.
The answer? Well, the smallest pistol I have total confidence in based on my experiences (YMMV) is also from Sig: The P239. Many consider it a clunker compared to today's micro 9mm pistols, but it is accurate, it's weight dampens recoil well, and it is reliable.
But I'll continue to follow the story on the P365 and hope for the best.

Just picked up a P365 with a June 16 date. I checked and it has the new firing pin. I see tiny bit of the trigger return spring in the magwell. If that's an issue looking like it would be easy to remove the chassis and trim the spring a tiny bit.
That is what i would do. My pistol has the old striker; have had the gun for months now. The trigger return spring does not protrude into the magazine well. The pistol is quite accurate. Amazingly it seems, accurate. The pistol is 100% reliable; has been shot over 1000 times. The p365 is wonderful. It seems to like me; it follows me wherever i go. |
