My Sig P365 Review: What No One’s Telling You

[@Hazel66781]

I've owned my P365 for several years and I never had a double feed or any type of malfunction. For me, it's been an excellent gun.

[@alcofino7149]

While I’m the very happy owner of a p365 XL for 3 and a half years as my EDC… I couldn’t sit through this generic review in which what was being viewed was all over the place in showing the 6 different versions of the p365 model line. Couldn’t get through half the review as the voice started be becoming nauseating…. If you are going to do an audio with the base p365 than just show visuals of that version…

[@claygiffin533]

I found your review extremely accurate, thanks! ONE Very Important FACT. I personally have never encountered a failure to feed, failure to eject, and my particular 365 has never double fed a rounds, ever. If it had regularly, I would not carry it. My opinion as many others have stated, 0 isues with 1500, 2000, 3000 and more rounds with out 1 of any of those issues. Full disclosure, I own and am a "Glock Man". Love My 17's !9's 26's, they are reliable every one, however I do Have to say the gun that leaves the house with me every day?? The Sig P365.

[@cookiesuarez3771]

I have had my p365 xl for about 2 years as my EDC and 2 k rounds including FMJ and duty ammo from 50 grains to 150 . 2 - 12 round mags converted to 14 , 1 15 , and a 17 round mags. Not a single malfunction 😎

[@TransitionSF]

I've heard it said that you can save yourself headaches by not buying a used P365 or P320. Changes have been made over the years to increase reliability. If anybody is tempted to buy a used one, call SIG and give them the serial number to find out when it was made. I would probably feel relatively safe buying one made 2021 and later but, I might want to do some more research first too.

[@davidorlin3499]

​@@tax905972 Question? Why is it that you have to buy over priced ammo to use in this gun in order for it to work properly?

[@zackiinu7194]

Splendid review! I bought my P365 in 2019 and it has NEVER failed to feed or fire. Personally, I think the exclusive use of high quality ammo makes all the difference with the 365. I have only 1 self-defensive gun-the 365-and it has tasted only 1 brand of ammo and has never malfunctioned. I also have had Glocks, and we all know that they’re not particular with what you feed them. However, because the 365 is designed like a mini sewing machine, you have to treat it as such (e.g., only feed it the best needles and threads). If you do, you will get optimal performance. BTW, I counted at least 4 times that you used some form of the word “magic” while describing the design of the P365. Very complimentary! Thanks for the great review!

[@bronsont7280]

I have owned 3 P365s, currently have a .380 and a 9mm P365 X Comp. Have never experienced a failure to extract or any other kind. Expect limp wristing more likely cause that gun design. 😊

[@vincecoker2221]

I own a 365 …only one minor issue …it has 12 round magazine..sometimes it tough getting that 12th round in magazine so I just go with 11 rounds ..I the gun is perfect size for carry purpose ..took some time to get used to the no manual safety great reliable gun

[@Pmedic605]

Never, ever experienced a double feed with my 365.

[@oldgoat8861]

I own the P365Xl now for 4.5yrs with approx. 5k rounds put down the barrel. I find quality loads it is EXTREMELY RELIABLE. I prefer Underwwod Defenders 65gr (High ft pds, fast cycle, extreme speed, low recoil) or Winchester Super X 115gr. Never a failure to feed, never a misfire....extremely accurate. UNDERWOOD IS MY FAVORITE RD..

[@zackiinu7194]

Oh yeah! I feed my P365 nothing but Underwood Extreme Defender 68 gr. +P ammo. I use their platinum coated ammo. I’ve had my 365 since 2019 and I’ve never had a misfire, failure to feed, or any other type of problem. I carry it in a 3Speed holster.

[@JimMorrison-m8x]

Nice review. However, you didn't mention the fact that the P365 is a modular design where the FCU can be dropped into a different frame, along with the standard slide and you now have a different gun. I have oversized hands and wear XXL gloves, so for a better grip I dropped the modular P365 FCU into a Wilson Combat P365XL frame. I added their tungsten weights to lesson the "snappiness" and customized the 12 round mags with Mag Guts plus 2 magazine kits. So now the set up is a 14 plus 1. The sights are dovetailed into the slide, so they can be easily changed and trigger swaps are easy as well, but I like the standard trigger as you did, so I kept it stock. Customizing your firearms is a good thing, and this gun makes it easy.

[@Mike-4547]

I have my 365xl for almost 2 years now it’s my most carry, I take to the range every few weeks put a box of ammo through it and I do my best to try different types of ammunition, so far about 1000-1100 rounds through it no issues as of yet. Quick disclaimer I do keep it clean, just like my other tools, holster, or other type of scratches don’t bother me as long as it works.

[@myronbrand]

I haven't had any problems with my 365. Accurate, very reliable. Love the ergonomics. The only problem I've had is rusting at the base of the mags. I sanded and painted with rustoleum paint. So far so good.

[@zackiinu7194]

I had the same problem, but the rust was about mid-way up the mag. It was my fault because I never take off my gun unless, of course, I’m showering or sleeping. Anyway, I do lots of yard work in the hot Texas sun, so sweat rubs onto the handle and finds its way into the mags. Sig cleaned out my gun and I replaced the mags. Won’t do that again. So now I carry in a 3Speed holster, which is designed, in part, to keep any part of the gun from touching your body; it’s also extremely comfortable to wear.

[@myronbrand]

@@zackiinu7194 The Rustoleum paint helped. Maybe I'll check the holster out.

[@jimfisher5138]

I've been carrying the standard base model P365 for 2.5 yrs and have never experienced any type of malfunction. I shoot it well and love its size for EDC. I still like my G26, but only use it as a 2nd choice/backup for EDC.

[@taasch2505]

why would moving down to a budget line from a premium product be "moving on"? Yknow what I think? I think you never had a sig to begin with because you couldnt afford it. You bought what you could afford and because you have it you tell yourself its the "best option". I see this all the time. And I'm by no mean a Sig fan either. I prefer Glock and Springfield. But Glock, SA, and Sig are all top premium brands......Taurus....I mean I seen some gangbangers who rely on drug sales use em I guess?

[@dennisl4000]

The P365 is a remarkable pistol, I bought my 1st one right after they started making them again after the sticker issues. The gun has had a number of minor refinements, although Sig will not tell you, that have made it even better today. I currently have the X, XL Spectre, and 380. Great little gun and my triggers range from 4.3 to 4.5 pounds and are smooth. However, some triggers are gritty and so I would try them before buying.

[@josephklimchock5412]

@@dennisl4000 Thanks and I expected it to be lower recoil and sure, not as powerful as 9mm but with todays way better defense loads than we had 30 years ago, it could be a good choice for people like me that have older and weaker hands. On the downside is the expense of 380 ammo today, it is crazy.

[@stim141]

Have a P365 with manual safety. Maybe 1000 rnds through it. No misfeeds, jams or any malfunctions. I clean it religiously after 100 rnds. No finish wear and the slide to frame fit is tight no rattle. Changed the trigger from the hook to a flat. It did take a while to get used to but I can get quarter sized hits with 50 rounds did on at 10 - 12 yards. You have to watch your trigger possition and pressure otherwise it will drift to the right. Basically its near perfect.

[@ogamhunter]

I just purchased my P 365 Sauer, it fits my hand perfectly! I too do not like where the magazine break down is. Other than that, I love this pistol and its performance!

[@gsitzkowitz]

My 365 story, I loved mine until I started defensive training with it. Failure to stop drill were all but impossible. A gun that small with full power defensive loads is almost uncontrollable at speed. I started renting guns that were bigger and found them to be far more shootable at speed. That is until I rented a 365-380. Without exception this is the most shootable of all the 365s! Fast, flat, and accurate on a level no 9mm can match. With Underwood Extreme Defender ammo the gun is far more capable as a self defense weapon than any of the other 365 models.

[@markymark9961]

For you perhaps. The 9 mm is a far superior round. This is why law enforcement agencies across the country limit them to use off duty or as a secondary weapon. The guys in the video seem to have complete control and so do all the cops at the range.

What else would you recommend similar to the P365 Marco or Sig at all. Given their response to rust, mag's finishing peeling off and horrible quality control from several KZbinr's I'm looking for another system similar to them. I just can't take the chance being a soon to be new gun owner for me and my family. Thanks for the great video's. They have been very helpful in learning to making a very complicated decision.

[@Knuck3ls1]

Surface rust or finish coming off a magazine is not the end of the world. These are carry guns and tools, not museum pieces. If you sweat a lot and live in a hot, humid climate, surface rust isn’t abnormal. Just need to clean and oil it more often. Are there other guns that may not need as much TLC? Sure. Doesn’t make the 365 a bad gun. A little surface rust on the exterior of slide won’t keep it from maybe saving your life.

[@YouConquer]

I’ve seen several other good and very knowledgeable KZbinrs not only show the mags rusting and they r in dry climates. but The Guns themselves (Slide) are rusting out. They had customer service on the phone who said they won’t cover rust and now left with a useless gun they can’t sell or use. Do as u wish but that’s not the kind of “Customer service” I expect from any company no less one with the reputation of Sig. That’s just not something I’m going to take a chance on especially as a soon to be new gun owner. H&K, Glock, S&W, Canik, CZ and several others would immediately send a new gun and mags without question.

Man! Your Manuel of Arms to clear a FTF is all wrong. Drop the mag, rack the slide twice, insert the mag, bump the mag, and rack the slide to load the weapon. I have the Sig P365XL ROMEOZERO and have never had the problems you cite. My everyday laod is SPEER GOLD DOT 124gr JHP +P ammo . And that has been through 500 rounds.

I don't think there is anything wrong with a paid promotion, but IMHO, having Line45 present this Sig-produced video as a personal review is a bit deceptive.

I sure hope it turns out to be as reliable as this _"It's as if there is some sort of magic at play"_ advertisement promises. 😁 The info about the double feed malfunction was surprising - and disappointing.

[@jumpercable20]

😢Its important to understand that there will always be the possibility that there can be a failure once in a while. Why does that mean every single one of them is junk? Try to please everyone and you'll piss someone off. Sig makes some of the finest weapons sold, they've been around a lot longer than glock. I have nothing against Glock, but I'd rather have a sig, i already have a glock, and I'm not impressed. I believe CZmakes a better pistol than Glock, any doubts. Go to a few pistol matches, you'll see a lot of CZ shadows but i doubt you'll see a Glock in competition. Now we have CAD/CAM and competent engineers, there are very few bad guns.Be thankful we still have a choice.

[@nsob8897]

I have nothing but good things to say about mine. It has been great to shoot and has handled ooohhh...around 5 thousand rounds or so at this point. (Owned for about two years). One thing I will say is that I've had two trigger springs wear out so far. I agree with the narrator that I feel much more confident in taking challenging shots than I do with other my other small pistols. I'm more of a compact fan than any other pistols so a 365xl was exactly where I wanted to be when I decided to get a different carry pistol. I'm getting a second one as soon as I can.
