The "Sig"ness- vol 1.

[rhino]

The P320 X5 Legion I picked up is just such a great design, and is SO WELL balanced. I can't say enough great things about it.

The trigger is sweet compared to the stock X5, but I am sending mine off to Robert Burke (The SIG Armorer) for some customer trigger work.

X5 is good.
Legion is good.

X5 anf Legion in the same gun? Much more good-er!

I have the X5 in Coyote tan (31% more tactical) with a Gray Guns comp trigger in it. Just put a Romeo 1 on it a few weeks back. I love this pistol so much. Also have a fullsize P320, which is what led me to buy my X5.

Seriously? 31%??? I have read lots of posts online that say the Coyote Tan adds at *least* 33% more tactical! Sheesh!!!

How many folks here have the new 365 XL? Thinking about picking it up for my new CCW, but heard mixed things about the original 365, I know Tim from Military Arms Channel had terrible luck with the firing pin dragging on his old one, and he loves the new one but looking for more positive feedback before I jump on it. I was pretty much sold as soon as I put one in my hands at my lgs though.

I have one I am really enjoying, have about 400 rounds through mine and is running smoothly. The size to me is just about perfect!

I haven’t looked at an XL yet. Is it a little bigger all over?

 

[Jericho941Fan]

It's mostly in the grip, I believe, it has +2 capacity. I believe the slide is also slightly longer, but from what I could tell, they are identical in thickness. This one apparently fixes the firing pin drag though which is the biggest thing for me.

 

[Expat]

So the mags are not interchangeable?

Not by much, but slightly bigger in slide length and grip. But feels so much better in the hand to me when shooting. Will keep my 365 for while at work but 365XL will be carried a lot when off.

XL mags work in P365 original, but not the other way around. Similar to glock 19 mags working in a 26, but not the other way around.

I stopped at Point Blank in Carmel today on the way home (big mistake) to look at a P365XL.

I compared it side-by-side with the standard P365 and also my current EDC, the P938. I have to say, I prefered the standard P365. Both felt fine in my hand (dry fire only), but the P365 is the same size (roughly) as my P938, and I felt that the extra length was a bit too much for my to comfortably carry. Call me crazy...

OK, now call me DOUBLE-CRAZY, but I decided to buy the P365 with the manual safety. I know everyone hates the idea of a manual safety in a carry gun (especially striker-fired), but I have been carrying a safety-equipped gun for so many years, that it is natural to me, and I am very used to disengaging the safety on a draw.

I see very few people that think the safety-equipped P365 is a good idea, but once i tried it, I knew I had to have it over the standard P365 or even the P365XL.

NO MORE GUNS FOR ME!!! (For at least a week!!!)

 

[Expat]

Nicely done Doublehelix

No more guns for me either... although I hope to go to the Shipshewana show tomorrow... so i might not last as long as you.

 

[repeter1977]

I wish I had the reason not to buy like that's enough for now. Instead my bank account says i should have stopped quite some time before. Oh well, only live once.

Let us know if your striker drags on the primer!

Will do. I am assuming it will, but I am not concerned that it is a problem.

This is my 5th SIG now. I guess I do have the SIG-ness! And I still want a German-made X-Five (P226)...

At some point, it might be time for a family photo!

Last time I did that, I got the "you sure have an awful lot of guns" from the wife...

Oooohhhh... good point. Note to self: Take picture when the wife is not home.

Thanks Expat... you're a lifesaver!

Just lose the wives.
Naked guns sprawled out on my bed look way better than my wife ever did.
