I have the Macro Non Comp and I love it. Sucks that you are only limited to 10 rounds in Cali. Here in Fla i enjoy the 17 + 1 capacity.

[@A2Firearms]

Indeed. I look forward to the day that law is changed.

[@cin426]

If you can't carry more that 10 rds carry the xl grip. Get the wilson combat and get the weight kit

[@woodystube1000]

Thought I would “upgrade” my standard P365 to a P365x. Bought a WC XL grip on sale and found a True Precision optics-ready slide at a good price. Slide didn’t come with sights or pats, so added $100 parts kit, $140 barrel, $40 guide rod/spring, and $110 sights. With just those parts, I was already $250 over the price of a new P365 X, which would have come with a FCU, mags, and a case. One of the dumbest things I’ve ever done in terms of pistol upgrades.

[@richardtatorship422]

Just save money and buy a p365x. Have a very good conceal and a bigger version for whatever

[@SM-zr1hx]

Is part list available?

[@A2Firearms]

Yes, I've listed the parts in the video description.

[@Uhhhhtom]

You should not carry FMJ as your self defense carry ammo a rookie mistake and can cause more problems cause you shot the person behind the bad guy…

[@A2Firearms]

Agree 100%. Those were to break in the mag. My carry ammo is normally JHP. However I do carry a mag of FMJ in case I have to punch through a solid barrier.

[@Uhhhhtom]

@@A2Firearms I apologize. That is some good back up I haven’t thought about that good thinking

[@A2Firearms]

No need to apologize brother. We’re here to learn from each other and exchange ideas 😊 I appreciate your feedback.

[@WettDoggTV]

U could have just gotten the ramjet afterburner comp set up from Radian

[@Beeehall]

There’s a X Macro Comp Ca compliant on the Sig website…. Noticed it last night.

[@derickharris1905]

I wanna know how you accidentally load your firearm 😂

[@A2Firearms]

Good question 🙂 The most common is when someone tries to clear the weapon but switches the steps, so instead of ejecting the magazine, then racking the slide, they rack the slide, then eject the mag. So they chamber a round (or another one), then eject the mag.

[@timnichols3264]

Did the Spectre Comp slide come with the barrel?

[@A2Firearms]

The Spectre Comp slide works with the original P365 3.1" barrel, so no new barrel needed. :)

[@kirbyclone3293]

Dude. Move. Your state sucks.

[@A2Firearms]

We're Americans! We stand and fight 😃

[@netaneladar3789]

you dont have to buy the p365xl slide. just buy the XMACRO lower, and cut about half an inch at the end and you will have an XMACRO with the short slide of the p365/p365x as seen in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/r5mXZHWNe6yNosU

[@ComblocEli]

Must have missed the barrel swap, are you running the same one from the p365 on the macro? Great video 🤙🏻

[@A2Firearms]

The beauty of using the comp slide is that it works with the original 3.1" barrel... so no need to swap. If you run the regular slide without the integral compensator then you'll need to use the longer barrel as well. So it'll be a heavier mod with more muzzle rise and more expensive as well.

[@doughboy334]

great video! very informative and well produced. i did a similar build, but converted mine to Wilson Combat coyote XL grip and spectre coyote brown.

[@A2Firearms]

That's a great build! Thanks for sharing :)

[@bang2loud1981]

So your only one step from having a normal sig sauer p365 x macro you got rid of the magazine disconnect and the loaded chamber disconnect 😂😂 just get rid of the safety

[@A2Firearms]

😂🤣😂 That's the one feature I actually do like. Just a personal preference. I train drawing from the holster and taking the safety off in the same move.

[@ClaytonF10]

You forgot to change it to the flat trigger.

[@A2Firearms]

Haha, thank you. I personally prefer a combat trigger, but I do see the merits of a flat trigger as well, especially for competition.

[@Goldarach]

3 minutes in and looks like you're still trying to convince yourself a round didn't magically hop back into that chamber.

[@TheMadShredder]

What size backstrap comes preinstalled? Large or medium?small

[@A2Firearms]

It comes with medium size back strap pre-installed.

[@A2Firearms]

Check out this short video we posted about the backstraps: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iqW8mINmrr2ZbNUsi=7pfbm4wkZaLmK4t8

[@Goldarach]

A 10rd Xmacro instead of 17rds? You might as well stick with an XL if you can't take advantage of the extra rounds due to CA compliance, but what a waste

[@A2Firearms]

I see what you're saying, but the X-Macro grip is still about 1/2" longer than the XL which works better for my hands. We're also fighting the good fight in CA and hope the 10rd magazine ban will be overturned for good. Fingers crossed.

[@Snapper314]

As of this week, the P365 XMacro Comp IS on the California Approved Handgun list.

[@depthcharge6215]

Sig as of today have not yet ship, and retails cant order them yet. Im waiting for comp ver.

[@gerardoarturo18]

Is it legal in ca to remove the magazine disconnector and carry the gun? Wich metal grip module (xl format) is recomended. How do you recomend to cut a grip module without safety gap to adapt it to ca firing module? THANKS!

[@A2Firearms]

It is not illegal to remove the magazine disconnect if you own the firearm. The law says that new firearms submitted for testing to be listed on the CA Handgun Roster must have two of the three features (one of them being a Magazine Disconnect), but it does not bar the owner from removing it.

[@A2Firearms]

For metal grip modules I recommend Icarus. They make a nice metal platform and have it both with and without manual safety. For modifying a grip module without manual safety to be able to accommodate a manual safety, I've used a dremmel tool with great success.

[@ericknight1153]

Is there an AXG conversation

[@A2Firearms]

Not just yet. Sig does not sell the AXG grip separately just yet. I'm sure they'll do so soon, and I'll be creating a video about that once that time comes. I'd suggest following/subscribing to our channel so you get notified when the time comes.

[@ramonbenitez4093]

Great video. Thanks

[@A2Firearms]

Glad you enjoyed it @ramonbenitez4093

[@julieredmon1521]

The constant lecturing on gun safety was getting annoying. I don't watch videos like this to be lectured. I dare say most of us understand the dangers around handling firearms.

[@A2Firearms]

I'm sorry you didn't like those parts. We tailor these videos for all expertise levels. As an NRA Firearms Instructor, I can tell you I've seen enough people out at the range doing things incorrectly that I believe it helps reiterate the safety points for those who don't know it.

[@markm148]

Yeah the “no ammo in the room”, I struggled after that one.

[@luizfilipe5437]

I’m sorry but you basically bought a new gun

[@A2Firearms]

Not quite. I practically made a new gun and it cost me about 40% cheaper than buying the X-Macro outright. I also didn't have to register a new gun and wait 10 days to receive it, and did not have to take another CCW qualification to add a new handgun to my CCW license. All those benefits and cost savings, in my opinion, were worth exploring.

[@user-crybaby76x]

The only thing bought was the slide and grip module, along with the magazine. Since when was a slide and grip considered a firearm?

[@antman656]

Yeahhhh, you basically bought a second gun. If yoh buy another FCU and a recoil spring you would have a second gun. If it works for your laws then great but for the average person this is wayyyyyy over the top. Just go online buy a slide and barrel complete, a grip mod, FCU and then you are done. Will cost the same amount or a bit cheaper than buying a stock gun

[@markm148]

Xtech mag extension. Similar grip improvement under $50 for those that don’t need or want to build basically another gun.

[@ChiefChokeAHoe]

You blow in from stupid town?

[@BanditApache-nd6lu]

As a born and bread Proud Texan. If you are a 2A guy or girl, run out of COMMIE-FORNIA as fast as you can. Come to Texas, we can have all the fun toys we want and all the STANDARD capacity mags we want too.

[@A2Firearms]

Haha, too funny, and too true. You CAN INDEED have all the toys you want. But somebody's gotta fight the good fight here too 😉 Plus, as a national firearm retailer we have all the fun toys you want in our store as well as the California-approved ones. So feel free to check out our store and see if there's anything you like. Message us for a discount code on your next purchase.

[@jakethemistake19]

Running away from home sounds like a cowardly thing to do. Aside from cans and full auto setups, we get what we want.

[@A2Firearms]

@@jakethemistake19 💯agree. Actually full-auto is illegal anywhere. I do wish we could do suppressors though. Maybe we can vote to change that.

[@royburkettjr7170]

The parts that you got for your XM road for the P3 65 do you have to get the gun registered or is it already registered? How do you go by getting the parts and go through the legalities of changing that gun over?

[@A2Firearms]

No need to re-register your gun. Those parts are unserialized. You'll transfer your Fire Control Unit (FCU) which is the ONLY part that has a serial number. This will give you the freedom to customize your slide, your grip module, etc. without having to register a new weapon.

[@royburkettjr7170]

@@A2Firearms tell me how to do this upgrade is it cheaper this way ?

[@A2Firearms]

@@royburkettjr7170 Not cheaper or more expensive. Just that Sig doesn't have a CA-Compliant X-Macro so I decided to go this route. All you need is the X-Macro grip module, compensator slide, and recoil spring assembly. I've listed the parts in the description section of the video. Hope that helps.
