Sig P365

Here is mine in the only IWB holster I’ll ever use with it. I’m spoiled by it, and won’t carry it IWB in any other holster.

I do carry it with a 12-rd magazine.

Now that's a nice set up...... makes me rethink a 365 as a backup or can't carry anything else.

It’s been a game changer for me. I use it as primary with 12-rd magazine and the Sig V-crown hollowpoints they design for this length barrel. My pistol does not have the manual safety. I’m perfectly fine with that.

I’m not a Sig fanboy but it shoots like a full sized service pistol and carries small. Love it.
 
I have only had mine for a little over a week now. I should have been more patience in the purchase. Now that I have shot this an carried it as a backup a few times I am quite unsettled that there is no manual safety. I was looking for a Shield 45 2.0 and my 2 requirements was that it have a Manual safety and no Integrated CT laser. I don't know what I was thinking when I bought this other than I love Sigs SAS models. I also love thwe bullseye sight. I have several Sigs that are all SAS that were produced in 2001 or later. But they are all D/SA pistols like S&W 3rd gens. I did get a great price on it so I am already thinking I will sell it and buy the manual safety version. That means going away from the SAS but I have to have the Manual safety.

I have the one with the manual safety. The safety is a bit stiff to activate at first but with a little break in it is fine. Feels like the thumb safety on a 1911.
 
By all accounts the P365 seems to be a good choice.

It's not on my radar because I have a preference for hammer-fired DA guns, but I wouldn't rule out getting one someday.

And this is why I've yet to handle the Kimber K6Ss I've seen at the LGS. ;)

I’d like to get a 365. But I have a Shield and a Ruger LC9S, extra mags for each, and multiple holsters. There’s not much re-sale value on either and they’re not fun range guns, so what would I do with them? I’d lose too much selling them at such a loss.

If I didn’t have either I’d get a 365, but $50 mags are not something I want to deal with. And if I did get one, a manual safety would be mandatory.

Sell it, get what you really want, and never look back.

Sig makes a kit to add a thumb safety. Easy to do.

My 365 has a safety. I didn't buy it for that reason and probably thought they all did when I bought it.
 
I just shot mine for the first time today. I am very impressed with it and it shot quite accurately. No sight adjustments needed. It piled the empties up neatly about 7 feet to my right. The trigger seems very Glock-like in feel. I like how Glock triggers break and I shoot them well. If Glock offered a model with a thumb safety, I would be all over it. But they don't. Hence, the Sig.

Ya gonna love that gun, I’ve had mine since Oct, 2018. It always goes where I do. Compact, capacity, accuracy, night sights, thinks it’s a big gun.

Having large hands I added some Goodyear’s. :D

I got a Hogue hand all for mine, but I don't think I am going to use it. You have to cut plastic strips to act as shoe horns, use heat and Windex to install them? I'm afraid I'll end up damaging the frame in the process.
Any tips regarding installing it?

I pulled, pushed, and tugged, done.
 
I did as Ladder13 did. I heated mine in very hot water then dried it quickly before hand. Hair dryer will work too.
Just be careful not to tear it
BTW, I really like the difference the sleeve makes.

I went in to purchase a Glock 43X or a Sig P365. They didn't have the Glock. But I had to try the 365XL. Loved it. The frame for the 365XL can be had for about $50. I saw a video where one guy bought the longer XL frame and put the firing/trigger mechanism and shorter slide from the 365 on the XL frame. Had I watched this video prior to purchasing, I would have bought the 365 and done the same thing.
