P365XL. I shot 300 rounds of various ammo, which included a lot "defensive loads" from 124gr to 147Gr. All functioned perfectly and were accurate. Sig 365 124gr was the best, but anecdotal as I didn't record much data. I just seemed to be on target more.

So I'm wondering about the Wilson combat frame. Says it's bit bigger in the grip area. The thin grip on the OEM frame isn't bad, but a slightly bigger grip, like the Wilson Combat might suite me more. Perhaps similar to the Glock 43.

What say those that went the WC direction?

I like it. It is a bit thicker so it seems fuller in the hand. It was a tad too “grippy” for me but a little sandpaper fixed that right up.

I love the Wilson grip module for the 365 as it has just enough palm swell to fill my hand without making it too big. The stock grip feels like I’m gripping an old wooden hockey stick.

The swells and contours fit perfect for me, making the gun an easy, accurate, fast shooter; very controllable. Recommended!

I have them on my 365 and the 365XL. They are nicely more hand filling. It's subtle but better IMO.

I have two Wilson frame. Love the palm swell but the hard line down the backstrap eats into my thumb web during recoil.

That is what sandpaper is for.

Someone asked for an opinion of the product so I gave one. I’ve solved it with a Brillo blending wheel.

What a difference the Wilson Combat grips make in handling my P365 & P365XL. There seems to be a much better "pointability" with these grips installed. As others have suggested, I have used a
fingernail sanding stick to reduce the aggressive
surface on the backstrap. I think you will be very
happy with the Wilson grips.

I feel the same way. I also like it because they have slots for two weights which help tame recoil a bit.

Wilson also doesn't try and rob you on the price seemingly like everyone else. I wonder how many they have sold just for the P365. It has to be an unreal number.

Ordered and received my Wilson Combat grip module yesterday form all places, Optic Planet which I've avoided for years. Same pricing as other sellers but with free shipping.

Have not shot it yet, but handling and dry firing makes me think I'm going to like it. Although I didn't hate the OEM grip, this Wilson seems to fit my hand better and points naturally. The texturing is very aggressive so we'll see how it does shooting 100+ at the range. With the OEM grip, my slide had a tiny bit of up and down movement and rattle. Not to the point of being overly annoying and it did function flawlessly. When I installed the WC grip, the slide is tight as a drum with no movement or rattle. I suppose this can loosen up with a bit of live fire. We shall see.

Many pics posted, but here's one more I took for my archive:
