I was at the indoor range yesterday and a Sig 365L was on the counter. I said this light pistol is surely going to give a lot of recoil. The guy working there said oh no the muzzle break will stop the recoil and asked me if I would like to shoot it. I said yes. I loaded three rounds in the little pistol and went to the firing line. I was amazed there was hardly any recoil. The triple port on the three inch barrel stopped the recoil. Now I want one!
No such thing as a P365L... There's a P365X and a P365XL, but no P365L.
(Some folks create what is unofficially referred to as a P365L by putting the long slide of an XL onto the short 10 round P365 grip, but that's not a factory designation, and such a configuration doesn't have a ported barrel.)
Sounds like you're probably referring to either a P365X Macro or a P365XL Spectre Comp, each of which have a ported barrel from the factory.
Does Sig even make the original version of the P365 anymore. I ask because I'm interested to see how it compares to my Ruger LC9S Pro, a pistol that is IMO ideal for pocket carry. Kind of regret not getting one when they were available. It seems today that all anybody wants is a 9mm with a 15, 16, or 17 round magazine and optics. Sad to think that a highly regarded pocket pistol has morphed into a giant Gamers gun.
I've stopped counting.

Yes, it's still going strong. The rest have their place, but are kind of the tails wagging the dog. I'm assuming yours was a valid question, and not sarcasm.
