sig P365 Fuse first shots! Trouble already

[@MikeyCase-v2t]

It did the same malfunctions for me till I put about 20-30 rounds and now it’s a champ I still love it

[@workthetrigger]

I had 100 attempted rounds through mine and nothing had changed prior to sending it to sig

[@fernandog.aguirre2791]

Today i putted the first 100 rounds! Amazing feel on my hand amazing shooting power! Love it! Can't get any better!

[@jamesbrogan85]

Mine had the exact same issues, but it smoothed out after approx. 200 rounds and is now 100% reliable, or at least it has been for the past 500 rounds... I know it shouldn't require a break in period and should work 100% right out of the box, but that's the reality of the situation!

[@kalandraemallory8356]

I'm amazed at how many malfunction videos I've seen with the Fuse. I haven't had any of these malfunctions with mine.

[@AliHasSpoken]

Bought mine today. We’ll see what happens lol

[@jonbillings3059]

​@AliHasSpoken Same. Picked mine up a couple days ago. Haven't had a chance to shoot it yet, but I gotta say I'm a little nervous

[@HorizonDailyclipz]

Same boat here

[@JayTaylor-xu6kt]

​@jonbillings3059 same ill go shoot mine this coming weekend

[@misteralvey3097]

Ditto

[@PaulyP_13]

Had a Langdon Tactical px4 CC that did the same thing brand new. I sent it back 2 times and they never were able to fix the issue. I know it is a different operating system, but a brand new gun, especially a pricey one should work without a hitch out of the box

[@kawikadee9670]

That's why I only trust the p226 and the p229 the newer models look good though.

[@Alex1Tremo]

Well said sir

[@kawikadee9670]

@@Alex1Tremo 🙂👍

[@mike34744]

I had the same issues. Sent it off and they polished ramp the breach base or something like that in a couple other internals. Works fine now.

[@Zay5.56]

For $700 that is unacceptable

[@thepatriotsrock2]

Polish feed ramp with cloth dremel bit with green jewlers rouge

[@workthetrigger]

You can try that, I'm not polishing anything. That's giving unfair burden to the user. Guns should work from the factory. Anything that needs user polished to work is broken.

[@DoitNXS]

I've heard about the feeding issues with the Fuse, but those were addressed in newer releases with the X-ray front sight and upgraded guide rod springs. I'm reading several posts in response to this video mentioning a break-in period was necessary. However, I believe a handgun should perform flawlessly right out of the box. I had a terrible experience with a Walther PPK (the S&W version) about 25 years ago; it just wouldn’t feed or extract properly, so I got rid of it immediately. My everyday carry (EDC) needs to function perfectly, or my confidence in it is shaken-especially when my life is on the line. Years later, I purchased a Walther PPS for my EDC. The salesperson promised that if it didn’t perform as expected, he would buy it back with no questions asked. That gun has served as my EDC for over ten years, and I've fired thousands of rounds through it without a single malfunction. I wanted to upgrade solely because I needed more than eight rounds. Despite the failures associated with the Fuse, those issues seem isolated to older models. When I first held the Fuse, it felt perfect in my hands. After doing more research, I decided to buy it. As my first Sig, I'm holding it to high standards. The salesperson assured me that if it doesn’t work, I can bring it back. I also purchased a lifetime warranty on the gun and the Romeo X sight it came with. It’s now day two, and I haven’t fired it yet, but I have cycled every type of round I own through it without any malfunctions. I plan to fire it for the first time later today. I’ll update you on how it goes. Fingers crossed, as I've heard too many great things about this gun to dismiss the negative reviews. Take care, friends!

[@Watermelonsandguns]

Mine has run perfect. I have been waiting a long time for them to make a larger p365 and I really dig it, hate to see people having trouble.

[@workthetrigger]

I'm not worried about it, I know it's going to be fantastic eventually. It's already slated to go back, and in talking to the Sig reps, we are pretty sure what's wrong with it. I'll be posting up again once we get it all taken care of.

[@Watermelonsandguns]

@@workthetrigger cool

[@tdoom2421]

​@workthetrigger can you find out if this was a bad batch of out of spec barrels or more of actual design flaw? I've seen sig polish up some guns and call it good, but idk if I buy that.

[@workthetrigger]

@tdoom2421 I don't think barrel is the issue. It seems to be extractor. Also doesn't seem like a batch. But Sig doesn't do great FIFO part control, so we don't really know. I'll update everyone when the gun gets back from Sig.

[@kalandraemallory8356]

Same here. I love my Fuse. Runs great. I've had one malfunction from a bad round. Other than that runs flawlessly.

[@Brianwright808]

It’s crazy. I’ve had my Fuse around three weeks. Since then I have ran at the minimum 500 rounds through it. Not one single failure to feed. I’ve heard the magazines springs are the issue. The feed ramp needs to polished. I am fortunate that mine feeds fine. Just installed some new springs to tune it a bit. Good luck.

[@workthetrigger]

Definitely not magazine related. It's extractor related. The magazines ran fine in an X macro, but the Fuse has failures. The issue seems to be the extractor geometry or tension not allowing the round rim to slide underneath it.

[@Brianwright808]

@@workthetrigger just watched your update. My extractor looks just like your new slide. That may be the reason I’ve had success.

[@andrewmontemurro7958]

Shame to see. I bought my fs P320 the day after they released the Fuse. Best gun I own. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, I've heard never to buy a brand new Sig. Something about them always having bugs that the market brings to their attention, and then after it's been out for a few years, they're super solid. Sounds like a crap way to go about business. But then I look over at my P320 and can't stay mad at them for too long, lol.

[@professorbland]

new sig having quality control problems? you don't say

[@ok-nice-to-be-here]

The ability to only shoot one round at a time is a CA extra compliant feature. Imagine ever thinking you could trust your life with something that malfunctions as bad and as often as this.

[@rugydon12]

Did sig fix the issues yet? If so can we get a updated video?

[@joematiacio3449]

Out of spec extractor. Early P320’s were notorious for the same issue. Not sure why Sig can’t get it right.

[@MotorBoating1413]

Took delivery of mine yesterday Wen to the range today Less than 50 rnds and the back plate disappeared Pretty disappointing

[@JayTaylor-xu6kt]

Just went and put a mag in and it'll cycle rounds through and then on a couple it'll do what yours does in the video. I'll reload it and it seems to happen less. Maybe when I go shooting with it it'll go away by then. If not I'll contact sig too

[@workthetrigger]

Yeah, do not feel bad about reaching out. They're pretty easy to work with, and turnaround was about a week

[@keatonbeer9674]

Many people are having issues with the fuse which is unfortunate and doesn’t make sense for it has the same fcu as the macro which is very reliable. I don’t get it

[@tdoom2421]

Any updates?

[@workthetrigger]

It's at Sig right now. I'll update when it gets back.

[@Alex1Tremo]

Good think is u never lost ur cool going tru the failures

[@warrenlantz]

It's really too bad. Love the P365 and wanted to pair it with the Fuse instead of the XMacro. Even held it in the shop and loved it. Hope they work the kinks out soon. Until then, I'll keep the G19.

[@workthetrigger]

They'll get it fixed. It's just a tuning thing. I think I've narrowed the root cause to a tight extractor

[@five-oonsene545]

Looked like the firing pin was stuck in the breach face and stopping the round from sliding up under the extractor.

[@OGhektik208]

just needs a litle biit of CNC work to fix that lemon

[@calholli]

Yeah.. but then it needs to be refinished, or it could rust easily. Might as well send it back.

[@armpig686]

My fuse hasn't had any issues through its first 400rds

[@HorizonDailyclipz]

Mine out the box put 200 rounds down range no issues what so ever

[@kawikadee9670]

The gun might have a match barrel and maybe it can't take the cheaper ammunition. Try shooting only higher quality ammunition. Only glocks can shoot all kinds of ammunition.

[@workthetrigger]

If it can't shoot Blazer, it has no right being called a self defense pistol. Plus I did run different ammo, same problem. Confirmed with Sig, it's getting ready to go back so they can take a look.

[@kawikadee9670]

@@workthetrigger Cool, I hope they can fix the problem. Good luck.

[@BlkOut6.7]

Upgrade to a tungsten guide rod.

[@dtodeen]

Never buy a newly released gun for the first year. I am surprised you are late to the game. The issue has been widely known since it release.

[@workthetrigger]

As someone that tests guns, I try not to watch others reviews before I get a gun out. I also try to get guns early-ish, especially if they're interesting.

[@GucciKraken]

Very legit reason for not watching videos in advance. Nice job! Bias is hard to manage.

[@mikeyrodriguez3193]

What do you mean “what’s going on Sig?” It’s Sig lol the first year of a new Sig model variant is always beta tested on civilian population lol buy a new production Fuse next year and it’ll be good to go out the box probably lol

[@workthetrigger]

The gun is 90% original P365. They should have that part figured out by now

Wow, maybe I ll just stick to my glocks.

[@AffordableArmory]

You had me until you called blazer “super reliable”. That’s the cheap stuff. Go get some 124gr or even 147gr Federal premium or syntech and try again.

[@johnnynguyen9449]

imma assume u didnt watch the rest of the video

[@AffordableArmory]

@@johnnynguyen9449 I did, but I’ll watch it again. It’s possible I missed something.

[@workthetrigger]

If you think premium ammo is the test for reliability, your opinion on reliable is ranked pretty low. There's not a gun I've tested that hasn't run Blazer Brass perfectly. And I've tested more then a few guns. Is it dirty? Yep. But that only speeds up our long term testing. Plus I ran sig v crowns through it later on, which are better build and quality then either federal premium or syntech rounds.

[@AffordableArmory]

@@workthetrigger Well I’ve tested quite a few guns, myself. And I teach classes regularly as well as attend classes regularly with some of the best instructors in the country. So I might’ve seen a thing or two. I wouldn’t call v-crown better than Federal considering one is fmj and the other is hollow point. And have you seen a ballistics test on v-crown? Not good.

[@workthetrigger]

I am not talking expansion or penetration, I'm talking reliability and consistency in firing. When you have both of those have issues, it's probably not the ammo that's the problem.

[@ibsexplosion4178]

Tight chamber and ammo could be out of spec. I reload, a round that would feed perfectly in my 1911 would not feed in my HK 45c. The round would not chamber because the diameter was 2/1000” too large for the HK.

[@workthetrigger]

Same ammo ran perfectly in the X macro. Brand for brand, chamber specs should be similar, if not identical

[@True-word74]

Sell that junk

[@MrPerry61]

Tighter tolerances mean breaking in. No one shots 1911s anymore, even the 2 and 4 thousand dollars pistols needed breaking in. There's a guy who reviewed the P365 AXG and he showed how noisy the slide was when he shook it, and guess what? no failures from that safe queen.

[@VinTheTruth]

Not everyone has enough money or time to put thousands of rounds through a brand new piece in hopes that it breaks in. Some people can only afford 1 piece. How is this supposed to help someone feel confident that they can get this to be a EDC that doubles as home defense? You may love Sig but the truth of the matter is their quality control hasn’t been the greatest over the last few years

[@brianmanning9271]

No gun should need a break in period.

[@TerriblyTactical]

Well it's a sig plastic pistol sooo....

[@CleverBryan1]

Video good, gun trash

[@wouty6066]

Sorry but this gun is a missconstruction! I would never trust my life on a gun like this!

[@calholli]

it's a little strange how many people are carrying a pistol with no safety. No manual safety I can understand.. But carrying something everyday, with no trigger safety is just a little nuts to me.

[@workthetrigger]

Is the trigger is covered, it isn't an issue.

[@AffordableArmory]

There are two safeties on the gun. A striker safety and a drop safety. They are internal to the gun.

[@johnnynguyen9449]

if your worried about carrying a gun without a safety then you shouldnt carry one at all

[@andrewmontemurro7958]

I was nervous until I carried it empty for a day in my holster, end of the day I pulled the trigger to find it hadn't gone off by itself.

[@calholli]

@@johnnynguyen9449 I carry everyday.. I'd never carry a p365 or p320. It's just an inferior design. A trigger safety is better and you can't convince me otherwise. lol. Cheers (and I have 2 p320's)
