SIG P365 Review: After 2+ Years and 50,000+ Rounds

[@evan9201]

I bought my P365 used. On my first outing at the range with the P365, It broke on the first shot. Dead trigger and the striker would only cock when I turned the gun upside down. I did a little research and this was a common issue on the gen 1 version. I sent it back to sig and they upgraded it with new parts and had it back to my door in 2 days. It’s been flawless so far.

[@Tincan53]

My wife and both carry the 365 daily. Flawless gun. Zero issues with close to 5,000 rounds fired through each gun. Love them.

[@DK-gy7ll]

I've had mine for a couple years and have shot several thousand rounds. Eventually I did start to have extraction failures, so I sent it back to SIG. They returned it a week later with the entire top half of the pistol replaced free of charge. Good to know that if you ever do have a problem they'll take care of it for you. I've dealt with far too many other companies who would take their sweet time then finally send the gun back to me essentially unfixed.

[@cjbecker1683]

Now that is great advertising & how a company can create a lifelong customer there 👍

[@dustinlerch9272]

They didn’t care how many years old it was? Did they need proof of ownership? Did you buy from the factory? Warranty?

[@ManicMechanic82]

What kind of ammo were you shooting and how often do you perform maintenance on your Sig? I read from Sig that some brands of ammo such as Blazer caused casing extraction problems but for the most part most ammo never causes any issues. It’s great they took care of it for you no questions asked! Now that is what I call Technical Support!!! Personally I should Federal Premium 9mm Hydra ShoK Jacketed Hollow Points. It’s one of the best rounds you can get your hands on.

[@ghostwolf4354]

Bought a P365 to carry, and loved it. Wife noticed it one day and asked about it, so I made it safe and let her handle it. She commented on size, weight, and how well it fit her hand, so I asked her to compare to the Glock 19 she was carrying, and she said she liked the feel better. I suggested she try it for a few weeks and let me know if she wanted me to get one for her too. That was about 6 months ago, and except for cleaning and function checks I haven't handled it since that conversation. I now carry a P365X that I bought when it became clear I was never getting my P365 back. The slightly larger pistol fits my hand better anyway, so it was a good thing - and now we both carry 365's.

[@unhingedhobbyist6722]

Glocks all look the same, they just are different sizes. I like my pistol to be a little different. Sig really did a good job on this one. I've been carrying one for about 6 months now.

Hi Jeff, is the p365xl able to pull off as a summer carry gun for you? Been nervous about buying it because I’m scared it won’t work with shorts and a t shirt.

[@bradhook6495]

@@chrisjavier2909 I’ve got both. Both conceal well but the p365 frame without the beaver tail conceals just a little bit better under a t shirt in the appendix position. I’m considering shaving the beaver tail off of the XL frame. One thing I do pretty often is put the XL slide on the regular p365 frame

[@DirtyDirtbath]

What specifically do you prefer this over the glock? I'm in the market and torn between the p365/xl and glock 43x . For me I like the length of the glock handle but everything else on the sig seems better when holding it - edit - I got the p365 xmacro, 10/10

[@ChevyConQueso]

@@DirtyDirtbath I am no fan of the Glock grip angle, but I didn't hate the 43X. I had to try it to be fair to myself and rule it out. The 365XL points exactly where I envision it every time, and the extra capacity didn't hurt. My dad is on the fence about the X Macro.

[@primsolllineguy8689]

Great video!!! I have only 1000 through mine but with same results! 1. Points naturally 2. Gets back on target fast 3. Recoil easy to control with proper grip 4. Feeds everything 5. Small and highly concealed 6. Nothing bad not even primer drag I am in Quality Control and teach it to many companies. Sig got this one right! Thanks for a great video.

[@larrywheeler9797]

I have both a P365 and P365XL both with XL grip modules and 12rd mags. Love them both. Use the XL for mostly range practice and the P365 for EDC. Thanks for the update!

[@joshroten3997]

I bought a Glock 43 thinking it would become my EDC gun. I already owned other Glocks that I like and shoot well. I never felt really good with the G43; was more “snappy” than I like and my groups weren’t as good as with most of my other pistols. Then I tried a Sig P365. I love the feel in my hand (grip) and it shoots very well. I also like the larger mag capacities (I upgraded to 12 and 15 rd mags and it still doesn’t print when carrying concealed). Zero malfunctions in the two years I have had mine, and because it is small (easily concealable even when just wearing a t-shirt and shorts) I carry it a lot. I also like the round capacity, fit in my hand(s) and accuracy. Keep up the good stuff Myles.

[@slmyatt]

My P365 was a very good well functioning 3rd gen tac pac pistol. Then I installed aftermarket 14 round Magguts magazine springs/baseplate in the factory 12 rd mags. Two extra rounds with last few rounds easy loading as first few rounds. Since then my P365 has become a flawless great pistol.

[@darrylhengst1623]

Had mine about 8 months. Only got about 600 rounds through it so far. 500 ball aluminum cased Blazer (1 failure by primer) 100ish Sig V-Crown 115 and 124 standard pressure zero issues so far. Price of ammo has held me back. It replaced my previous carry 1st Gen XDS 3.3 9mm. Loved that pistol but traded it off after getting the P365. Good to hear you have that many rounds through both of them and they are still going. Gives me hope bc I carry this Pistol when I do carry. Only thing I’ve done to mine is put a Talon Grip on it.

I am a collector, and polished blued steel with beautiful wood will always be dear to my heart. That said, my carry gun here in Florida with our heat and humidity and need for deep concealment is a P365xl. I have to agree with you completely. It will never stir my emotions like my 1964 Python, but it's a better choice for carry when it's 98 degrees outside.

[@toynazi]

I love this little gun. So easy to carry. The regular 365 grip was a bit too small for me. So I got the xl grip module to snap it in. Now it's perfect. 8 thousand rounds and counting. It's been perfect 👍

[@paul31415]

Just wondering if the Sig P365 grip that you found a little too small had the extension tab (pinky extension) that Sig is selling with the OEM 365. With the pink extension, I found it large enough to keep all fingers on the handgun and felt comfortable drawing and shooting. But I agree that the Sig P365 with the flat base is sacrificing too much speed in drawing.

I got my P365 almost 2 years ago and love it. Carry it every day, as well. From the time I get dressed in the morning, until undressed at night. Around 14 hours a day ? I did catch the base of the mag grip on a ladder and cracked it, so did a trim job on it. I have both 10 round mags and bought 2 extra 15 round mags. I carry the 10 and have a 15 nearby at all times, then alternate weekly. Haven't shot anywhere near as much as you, but have never had a malfunction. Ever. Love the way it recoils and the follow up 2nd shot. I carry left side (weak side for me) and it handles like a jewel, whether shooting left or right handed. I mostly practice my double taps left handed, then switch to right. Probably not ideal, but on the left, the seat belt doesn't mess with the draw. I'm figuring the odds of needing it in a vehicle are at least 50/50. It's so comfortable I forget it's there. The profile is small enough that it doesn't hit the arm of a chair when sitting or getting up. A plus for us bigger guys. Thanks for your video, glad to hear your experience !

[@kingdompadfoot1349]

I got this gun a few months ago as a carry weapon and I have really enjoyed it. My girlfriend likes it alot too. She doesn't like my full size because of the muzzle flip but loves to shoot my Sig. We end up both wanting to use it to the point we have to play rock paper scissors for who gets to shoot it first at the range. We have had zero issues as well. The two mag that came with the gun were both 10 round (one flush and on with a small wedge of plastic to give a bit more room to grip but no extra room for rounds) and she wanted the extended (12 round) cause her hands are slightly bigger. Over all we love it and glad to hear its working well for you guys too.

[@jameslogan6127]

I own and shoot the P365SAS and the P365XL was the first pistol I ever purchased and it was for my wife. She requested it. We went to training sharing the P365XL. I still shoot both but my EDC is a Kimber Ultra Carry II 45ACP which conceals well for me. I’d recommend the P365 to anyone without hesitation and I still carry it sometimes especially in the summer months with lighter clothing.

[@1001Hobbies]

@@SonOfTheDawn515 - Springs are designed to operate within a given range of compression without any deformity or detriment of the spring, meaning the effective range that the spring will expand to is not changed over time of use. This means the force the spring applies to the stack of cartridges remains the same over time. My mag is always full, always ready to go, and in the almost year I have had the kit installed there has been no failure of any kind. Not even a hint of any kind of change. I am confident it is going to last a long time. Of course I keep tabs on it every time I go to the range. As long as the spring is not compressed more than it is designed to be it should last a very long time.

Great gun. I have a couple thousand rounds threw mine. Use my support hand to release the mag and strip the mag when going for a reload. Very accurate and no problem for me out to 25 yards. I have not tried it at longer distances.

[@tamaraewald3791]

I know this update/review was done a year ago, but I purchased one if these gems a couple days ago (used from a shop) so this review is perfect! It was pretty dirty and I took it to the range "as is" to see how it would behave. FLAWLESS! Cleaned it when I got home and looking forward to taking it out again. Thanks tons for this review!

[@kevinroberts781]

I bought my wife a p365 2 years ago. She takes it everywhere. Great gun!

[@rbm6184]

My particular manual safety example was born on June 1, 2019. Over 600 rounds of all kinds of ammo and still flawless. I don't keep round counts after a pistol goes much beyond 500 rounds. I don't worry much about the trigger or sights of a close range defensive pistol only meant to be shot up to about 20 yards. Just so long as they do the job for that distance. For longer ranges the trigger and sights are more important. I will say the 365 has the smoothest trigger throughout the pull of any striker I have shot. Can't judge the 365 trigger just by dry firing it. Its pretty bad dry fire. Live fire is the only way to appreciate that smooth pull. Its a micro compact and the smaller the pistol the harder it is to shoot so it does take more practice to stay proficient. More so than my sub compacts. Thanks for sharing.

I have one and it really is dependable. Now is it accurate long range no. But I can say I was not a fan of it because of what I heard about sigs and I can say I purchased one and the rumors were not true and it is my favorite. It's what I depend on and I can say I can fully trust it. Also got a second one and did an extensive torture test on it and it wouldn't fail. Good concealed Carry gun.

I sold a Kahr CM 9 to get the P365. The biggest draw for me was the capacity. Mine was manufactured in April 2021, so I do not know what generation it is. It is accurate and has less recoil than the Kahr. I bought a 12 round mag so I can have more rounds and a larger grip, like the X model. I also have the ability to go smaller with the 10 rounder, so I have the better of both worlds. I carry mine with SIG 147gr HP ammo. You are correct in that it disappears if carried correctly. I use an IWB holster with a sweat shield. So far I have had no issues at all.

[@tommybenford9891]

I have the whole 365 line up from the 365,365x,365xl. I love them I carry the 365x now for the extra grip and smaller barrel then xl. Great gun put almost 3,500 rounds thru it no failures but one and it was due to me not cleaning it got the first 900 rounds

[@TheRancor53]

Had the original, sold it for XL. I have large hands and the XL grip let’s me keep all fingers on it and the mags drop nice and free. Perfect carry size.

[@InskiBoys]

I’ve been carrying one for about a year and a half now. Once I found the right holster. I love it. I Can’t tell I have it on me.

[@ericschneider8524]

Nick. Please share your holster choice. Tnx

[@JUNJUN-lw2vr]

I never had the opportunity to shoot the P365. However I do have a P365xl. I like it very much. I left it completely stock except for the Holosun 507k and Wilson combat grip module.

[@skulkem5479]

I’m actually considering purchasing this gun & this review was truly helpful. Glad I found such a recent review video. Thanks.

[@masterxiong7368]

Def worth considering. I switch between my 43x and my 365lx. Tbh the 365lx feels better but the 43x with s15 mag(more ammo, flush) it's hard to say.

[@erics2670]

We have had two of the P365, one for me and one for my wife both CC for over a year. I did research for almost 5 months before getting it narrowed down to 3 pistols before we bought. I knew that the one we purchased needed to be usable and comfortable for both of us. There was a Glock 9mm, the Springfield Hellfire and the SIG P365XL. We went to a range with rental guns to see what would fit us. The stores first suggestion instantly when we told them what we were thinking about was the Glock. I figured that was going to happen based on all the Glock poster and informational fliers on the cabinets. We never even bothered to fire the Glock as to us, it had the worst possible fitting grip. The squared off diagonal handle with no sort of rounded grip annoyed both of us. We took the Hellfire and they didn't have the P365XL available as someone else had it, but one of the instructors did. We tried both on the range and found the SIG to be more accurate for new shooters. More comfortable to hold and just overall what we were going to buy. The guy next to us had the P365 which is slightly different and he asked us to shoot it. We did and saw no real differences until he filled us in. The P365XL was fresh out and ran a bit over $700 at the time. He let us know a local all sport shop had the P365 in stock with a holster, case and two mags for $499. We bought two and have loved it since. Over 2500 rounds in each shot by both of us and also my daughter to be able to protect herself as well. It may be a few years and Thanks to ILLINOIS Gov Jerks it will be longer here for her to get a FOID but she can defend herself with this just as well. Great to see this video showing we made the right choice and we have no future issues to expect.

[@lpwbeasty]

I have the xl, have put just over 2k rounds through it. Zero malfunctions. My Glock 19 gen 5 on the other hand, 4 FTF within the first 1k rounds

[@Fatal_Inertia]

I've had the NRA version for about a year, only put about 150rds through it so far, but videos like these were the reason I bought it over the competition. Completely modular, up to 15rds capacity, comfortable to carry all day and shoots well.

[@rayraman3243]

Thanks for your insights, Myles. Your experience and opinion mean a lot to me. I was hesitant before, but I'll go ahead and buy it tomorrow morning. Much appreciated.

[@Ed-zj1vu]

Picked up one up today. This video reassured me I made the right choice. Keep up the great reviews 👍🏼

[@michaelstjohn6086]

like it?

[@ronolson2024]

Waited 1 year before I bought the 365 for the issues to go away. But after 1K rds. I started to have Failures to eject. I bought & changed out the ejector, longer ejection spring, & rubber buffer, which fixed the issue. I also polished the striker & sear which made for a slightly smoother & lighter (4-1/4 pd) trigger pull. Did the same polishing job to my much grittier 365XL trigger sear & striker assy. which also made for a better, lighter (4-3/4 pd) trigger, but still not near as good as the 365's trigger. If you can only have 1 gun, the 365 is an excellent choice.

[@ronolson2024]

I also bought the Shield Plus, another great gun, but had to send back to S&W as the gun could not be broken down. They fixed it & I love shooting it as well.

[@veriest1]

Thanks for the review. It certainly makes me feel better about mine. I've never understood how anyone complains about the trigger as the stock one is fine imo. The only problem I've had is the second-generation firing pin broke at around 800 rounds in my example. I replaced it with a Titanium one and haven't had any more issues but it's only at around 1500 rounds now. Considering the Ti one isn't MIM I don't expect to have anymore issues but that failure still lives in the back of my head.

[@masonaccardo9423]

I bought my P365 sometime in April of 2021(Born on date of March 2021) I've ran maybe 40 rounds thru it and had failures to feed occurring only with cci blazer 115gr fmj. Not a big deal, its just target ammo. It handles carry ammo just fine though with no malfunctions. But I was more concerned about the rattling sound you mentioned. Mine has done this as well since I bought it but thanks for mentioning it bc I haven't been able to find too much about that rattling anywhere else. Good review, very in depth

[@stevedriscoll2539]

I never buy blazer ammo. Had a bad experience with it decades ago in a Remington 581S .22 and condemned it straightaway.

[@hector7182]

When the gun is fully assembled, the noise that comes from shaking the pistol is the Safety Lever. The takedown lever also makes noise but that is when the gun is disassembled and you shake it. I own a P365 as well and noticed the same thing you did with the noise. Brand new, I never heard any noise but with use and time, I started noticing it. To my knowledge, it is not anything that will affect the gun or anything to worry about.

[@scottamy6496]

I carry the Sig Sauer P365X every day and it's fantastic! I have the Holosun 407K mounted on it and it's a great combination!

[@brianfuller5157]

Been carrying this for about 2 years, so I'm guessing 2nd Gen? No matter, it's been a great reliable, accurate gun. Not one jam or malfunction of any kind. I'm a big Sig fan but your observation about the mag release is spot on, so you have to train a little more with regard to hot reloads etc. Just FYI, Alien Gear makes a fantastic IWB holster for the 365 in case anyone is interested. Thanks for the vid.

[@jamesmorrison7847]

Due to the ammo shortage I haven't put many thousands of rounds through it in 26 months, but I have put a few thousand rounds and it's been excellent. I had 1 FTE with Russian steel case ammo that might have had a few specs of rust on the case. All FMJ brass case ammo and high end hollow point ammo has been perfect. I carry 12 round mags with Magguts Inc plus 2 converter kits for a 14 plus 1 set up. 15 rounds seems to be very adequate for a conceal carry EDC firearm. Great gun.

[@Prepper319]

You should leave those mag guts alone & keep your gun as stock as possible bro

[@jamescole8049]

Got the NRA one with 50 rounds through it basically brand new in box for 460 today from a friend. Can’t wait to shoot it. And it’s a 15 rounder so y’all know.

[@ApeLikeThinker]

I’m so glad you brought up the shaking noise. It bugged the hell out of me but still ran fine. 🤷‍♂️

[@frankfields6283]

Enjoyed your thoughts on the 365 ! I have only fired mine less then 200 rounds and so far so good but that said, I have to say its small size has now pushed me (allowed me) to carry much more due to the comfort issue. Ive had bigger carry handguns and to be honest there were times when i should have taken my carry gun but did NOT because of my gun being somewhat uncomfortable. NOT HERE! With the 365 i almost never leave home without it ...its so conformable!!! Thats a BIG plus in my view. (mine was born June of 2020 so not really sure what Gen it is)

[@christopherarwood5374]

I've had mine since 2018 and it will not fail. It even goes into battery when slamming in a full mag with the slide back. Some like it, some dont but I love it! I Can totally see why this is go to pistol..

[@j-dog9800]

Great video, thank you. I recently upgraded my carry option from a Ruger EC9s to the p365. I really love it. I got the Tacpac (case, holster, and 3 12rd mags), and I love it, I love shooting with it and am becoming very accurate. I am sure I will be carrying this as an EDC, and I am sure I will not feel the need to upgrade to something else. Thanks again.

[@ronaldsimmons5740]

The 365 is a game changer I have a light/ laser combo and carry with 12 round mag and CC with the least amount of clothing and it has less recoil than my g48

[@ChildishDfollowsGod]

Just bought my wife one yesterday. I hope she grows to really like it.

[@michaelphillips5786]

Have commend you sir.. You have spent lots of time, money, and effort to test the sig.. As a sig p365 and p320 xcompact owner I so appreciate your efforts!!! Thank you

[@TacticalHyve]

Right on

[@nanlindstrom8352]

I just purchased a SS P365 - fits nice to my hand (I have small hands). Have only practiced with this once so far. I also have a SS M17, which I love, but too large to conceal. P365 should be great for conceal carry. Thanks for the information.

[@kwik2hear915]

I love my 365!!! No issues so far after two years, very accurate pistol 😃😃😃

[@tysonstraga2763]

ive carried a P365 for almost a year now and have had no issues with it.
