SIG P365-XMACRO COMP

[@hickok45]

Again, be aware of the common SCAMS that are all over KZbin comments these days. I talk about this in Sunday Shoot-a-Round videos almost every Sunday. I seriously doubt that ANY KZbin creator is going to contact you in the comments section and ask you to TEXT or CALL them to get your "prize." DUH. :-) Or tell you to go to Telegram, whatever THAT is, or anywhere else. I've contacted KZbin about this several times. They are working on some things that might help with this, but it's just like all the SPAM email we all get; there's no way to eliminate the idiots or scammers of the world. You just have to make sure you're not suffering from a chronic case of "gullibility." :-)

I picked up the XMACRO ( blown away at the size and capacity)a few months ago and have a 1000 rounds of various target and self defense ammunition with ZERO failures. Very accurate. I compared it side by side with my shield plus and with the 13 round mag in the shield they are identical in size. I still carry my shield but mainly the XMACRO now.I agree that I could do without the compensated cuts in the slide but that’s what it came with. I would prefer a non compensated slide cut so I am debating whether or not to pick up the XL slide to put on it. As always another great video from the Legend! Thanks

[@jefferymcguire327]

I just picked one up about a month ago. Man I am sold. It shoots flatter than the X or XL. That comp really helps with the muzzle flip. I think it is even shoots better than my full sized P320 or HK VP9. I have definitely become a Sig guy, I have the P320, X, XL, and now the X Macro. I do pocket carry the X Macro (big cargo pockets), yes the X is way easier to pocket carry and I can always switch back to it. In my opinion the X Macro is pretty much a do it all gun, carry and home defense. I am quite happy with my purchase.

[@DanielBoone337]

I'm not the biggest fan of comp guns for defensive use either but I really do love the way the market has went with these thin lightweight carry guns with really good capacity. It's crazy this gun has a 17rd capacity in such a small package. Great video as always keepem coming brother!!!

[@fastjazz]

Well, in reality in that very very rare case you might actually need to use one for actual self defense the comp will matter not at all. On the other hand it will no doubt be annoying when you practice your close quarter self defense maneuvers…

[@DanielBoone337]

@@fastjazzI've run drills shooting from retention with a comp gun and it's not horrible but it's definitely distracting... that was a full size gun though I've never tried it with a shorter barrel like this one but I would assume it would be worse. Either way you're correct in a defensive situation I don't think you'd notice a thing.

[@_Delta_P_]

It’s designed differently from a normal comp. It doesn’t affect ammo type or make the fun finicky. The comp is built only into the slide after the barrel.

[@Magneticitist]

The macro is senseless in that it will become pointless when they sell only the grip module. Still, they know that I'm going to buy it. The porting for self defense is complained about now until they see John Wick using it to his advantage to blind an attacker he can't quite get the barrel pointed at. My only complaint is the price tag but around $650 or less wouldn't make any sense if they are selling the Spectre Comp for over a thousand. I went to the store set on not spending over $750 looking specifically for a Hellcat Pro and ended up with the Macro because of how good it felt in the hand. The grip is the real winner on this gun. G19 length with more capacity AND basically a single stack profile compared to Glocks it's just too sweet, but it's all kind of brought down a little in my mind because of how irrational the lineup is. Like IDK why they just didn't introduce this as only a grip module for the XL so we could have 3.7in barrels. It's because they know they can do that later but cash in on people who just like the comp gimmick.

[@BlueFL5]

I think out of the box, this gun beats out all of its competitors. It’s a concealable 17 rounds gun that’s reliable, easy to shoot, and is optic ready.

From what I’ve seen here I like this gun. A lot! Sig is on fire with so many models and here they’ve made a 17 round gun lighter and smaller. Exactly the way I like it! In the Army (Infantry) back in the 80’s the motto at the time was ‘what’s the spirit of the bayonet?’ The reply was ‘to kill’ my Platoon Sergeant (with years of Vietnam experience) would always say ‘to carry more ammo’ and he was right. So this 17 rounder with less size and weight than others is the perfect answer to me. And when you always should carry two magazines that adds up to 34 rounds-WOW it’s a no-brainer! I’m going to look and shoot this gun at the range and if it feels and shoots good to me I’m getting it!

[@jamesm2881]

I have the xl and the macro comp. The comp definitely makes it flatter for faster follow ups. I like the comp model for close range defensive scenarios.

It looks like you can get the X Macro frame and mags then drop your XL action and slide into it. That seems like a good option for a single gun that you can shrink down for pocket carry or max out for open carry or doing a class where the increased capacity would be preferred.

[@foggykudzu394]

My favorite combination is the XL slide with the Wilson Combat grip and a MagGuts mag conversion. Gives 14+1 and the grip is perfect. Great vid as usual Hickok! God bless.

[@garypotter5569]

Sig Sauer designed a gun around a magazine. I can't remember any gun ever made like that before. In my humble opinion, they should design every single iteration of the P365 around the magazine.

[@kencorsell8087]

I have always loved Sig products and have many of the original Da/Sa models, the P226 being my favorite, but unless your a uniformed LEO concealment and capacity are always your biggest problems! Sig addressed both problems with the original P365, and once they worked out a few bugs, the entire industry has been trying to play catch up! Now Sig is trying to narrow the gap between the P365 and the P320 to catch any stragglers who didn’t bite on the original. Personally my original P365 is my favorite with a 12 round mag it fulfills all my carry problems ! It carries well in my pocket, it has plenty of fire power and for my hands is a great fit. It’s super accurate and reliable it’s design is spot on, it’s my EDC.

[@great_deception]

Sig is really dominating right now.

[@ry-land-]

Nice video Hickok. They have three models of this pistol now: XMacro($650), XMacro Tacops($750), XMacro Comp($800). X Macro is the one you would suggest it’s also about $150 cheaper. Both the standard XMacro and Tacops come with a longer barrel, 3.7”, since there is no adjustment for the compensated slide. Tacops version has a detachable magwell and an enhanced slide catch lever, along with 4 mags included. Tacops is probably the best bang for your buck.

[@junkyardog6621]

The mag guts spring kit is amazing! Adds 2 extra rounds to the standard 10 round magazine without adding length. 13 total with one in the chamber. Hard to beat

[@jamesnason7355]

Yeah I've liked my 365XL Magguts for the 12-14 Spring Conversion. Was a little of a pain to install but once I got them together thy have worked well. Need to continue training to catch any malfunctions. I have 800 rounds through my XL Total so far without a hiccup though. It would be cool if they made a 17 or 18 round spring kit for the 15 rounders too. For its size and capacity it's put my G19 back in the safe atleadt until winter. It shoots Heavy +P Better.

@@dilldowschwagginz2674 I occasionally swap grips and slides, from XL to regular 365. I have magguts for both (the XL 12 rounders, and 365 12 rounders) If weight is a concern, it's super nice to carry the shorter slide, and still have 14+1.

I love my Sig 226 or MK 25 as it’s properly named. I chose the Sig M11 A1 for my carry gun as it’s basically a miniature 226 with no rail, no optics cut, has the SRT (short reset trigger) and is basically the same size as a Glock 19. It’s a super accurate shooter and feels just like my full size 226. I think it’s great that so many companies are offering a ton of choices for EDC and the 365 line by Sig is definitely doing well. You can tell when you go online to order a custom IWB holster for your pistol. It seems like every single holster manufacturer out there has one for the 365. That tells me it’s obviously doing very well. Thanks so much for all you do. Your my go to guy for honest, unbiased reviews! John.

[@miketyson8933]

He's got the best job in the world testing all the new firearms the day they are released! I don't know anyone else that gets the pistols or any new firearm as quick. But the compensator is definitely helping especially in a defensive situation it keeps the recoil down and can get quicker splits and more accurate shots on target and that can mean the difference between life and death! Everyone has tested it and no flames go back in the face it doesn't get in thebway of the shooting even at night, in fact an evening shoot can demonstrate how fast the flamage is up and gone! I sold my P365 XL with Romeo to get the X Macro! I have a gold Match barrel and Im getting it milled down to the metal piece on the opening of the slide and porting the barrel 2 holes under that metal that goes between the holes and then 2 more smaller holes below that showing in the opening of the hole closer to the shooter, the barrel will be 3.45 inches and it will look really good!!!

You can buy an XL grip module and easily switch the fire control group. I tried it, but prefer the regular frame with the 12rd magazines.

Great video. Thanks for sharing. I really like your idea about running the XL slide on that frame. Higher capacity and longer grip. Cool to have the option to put a red dot on it though. Maybe Sig will listen to you and take note of this video. I'll wait for that model to come out...

[@donalddicorcia2433]

Can’t imagine them not offering it in a non-ported version. I think they released the ported version first to counter the Hellcat Pro with compensator.

[@tonyvalenti4252]

Old Man can shoot...which brings along with it a rare amount of practical knowledge.

[@d.hayward5232]

Got the original sized P365, use 12rd mags exclusively. Fits great in a pocket holster, has fantastic sights stock. Anything that would make it not fit in a pocket doesn't interest me - would just carry my P226 in that case.

[@edsweeney6843]

I agree. I'm not enamored with the compensator. They just announced at Shot Show 2023 the Sig Macro, which is the X Macro frame with the 365 XL barrel and slide. It's also supposedly about $100 cheaper than the 365 X Macro.

[@VaxlandMapping101]

The SIG P226 has to be my favorite gun out of all of them.

Very cool demo, i have 2 M&P shields and they are too small for belt carry, have not tried any pocket holsters yet but its on my to do list.

[@03xl883c]

I think it’s great that Sig is expanding its 365 line. For me personally I’d rather have the longer barrel than a comp. I am curious how the new grip module feels and most likely will buy one when available.

[@naruii5160]

is the xl worth it

[@Jaslath]

@@naruii5160 It is to me. Longer sight radius helps with accuracy. Grip big enough to get a decent grip on. and optics ready. I'll admit the fact that the macro does have two features that I wish were on the XL. The sight plate doesn't remove the rear sight like on the XL and the plate removes from the top and not the bottom.

[@03xl883c]

I have both the original and the XL. For AIWB the XL with the longer slide sits better plus I like having the red dot.

[@naruii5160]

@@Jaslath So with the XL you cant remove red dot? i know you can remove it to change the battery but i mean like if i wanted to keep it off, would that be viable?

[@hlgb2014]

It was definitely weird the order in which they released the macro models. Wonder how the review would have changed if it was for the recently released base model macro. No compensator, optics ready, 3.7in bbl, and priced ~$650.

[@XRedJar]

365 for summer carry, and 365XL for the other 3 seasons. I'm not sure I understand the need for all the 365 variants, but I've got what works for me.

[@rooster7131]

Yea. I love Sig but they are just basically releasing the same damn things with 1/4” differences here and there. And screw a 3” barrel for a 9mm. Whats that all about? XL is the perfect variant for the 365 series, esp with the Wilson Combat grip module. They shouldve just stopped there and worked on a different variant.

Luv your autoloader. Thanks for the review. I actually purchased one, the X-micro. Hard finding a holsters since its so new. Sig store was the only place I felt confident to buy a holster from. Selection is very limited. Only one type of each IWB and OWB both not very comfortable. Hopefully they come up with a leather kydex hybrid.

[@TheMrsteven89]

Xl slide is my preferred way as well. The x macro tac ops build is by far the better choice out the box. I dont care for the comps so this made the choice very easy.

I thought the same thing at first about small pistols. Started shooting with them and couldn't hit anything. However, after a few affordable upgrades to the gun like a better trigger and internals, and some range practice with them, my accuracy has improved 10 times over and I can run them just as well as a full-sized. Just took a bit of figuring out.

Looks nice, but I’d rather carry the original P365. For me, making it bigger defeats the purpose of having a small gun.

[@hickok45]

Yep, bigger is not always better. There's a REASON a small pistol is popular. We can ALWAYS get more capacity or a bigger, more powerful cartridge, anytime we want. Lots of choices out there. The thing is, certain firearms are perfect for specific applications due to their size. My mobile phone could be bigger and easier to see and use; however, it would not serve the same function.

Hickok....sig told me you don't need a new slide. You can just put the 3.7 Barrel in and the comp ports just become lightning cuts essentially.

[@SgtThump]

Many folks have reported that you can’t fit a bigger barrel into the macro slide, due to the way the inside of the slide is cut?

[@42701texasman]

the barrel is actually much shorter on the macro than the xl. for me, the macro is not as accurate as the xl. first time shooting the macro, i was shooting about 2" left at 10 yards with irons. i installed a holosun eps and it is nuts at 10 yards now.
