One less pistol on my wish list

[Birdbander]

My wish list was never long, in fact there's only one more on it and today's purchase only makes 3 handguns in my cabinet.

I've found the 365 platform feels right in my hands above all others. I have the 365 SAS & wanted this one.

The next and likely last for me will be P320 Xten Comp.

Hopefully get a few rounds fired yet this afternoon.

Love the way the larger 365s fit my hand but haven't shot one yet. Be wary of the 320s, though. I'm a huge fan of my Glock 20 but, if Glocks don't float your boat, you might take a gander at the FN 510 or the Smith M&P in 10.

I'm a past owner of a M17 P320. I understand what you're saying @Sheltowee

Nice! Been hankering to offload my G40 and get something less.. large. P365 or a full size M&P 9mm are top contenders.

Should be able to get a "deal" on 320s now days.

I’ve read the phantom discharge happens on both models. My wife has a new 365 she’s too terrified to carry lol yours looks bigger though. Good looking arms, no doubt!

Those 365s are nice guns. I’m just so used to shooting Glocks that I always have to consciously fix my grip angle, so I sold mine to a buddy. G45 and G43X cover just about everything for me in 9mm now.

Shot my Gen5 19 MOS suppressed for the first time Saturday. Let me tell you what, might have been the most fun I've ever had with my pants on.

How do you like the sight on SAS? I really liked the sight in the shop, but then didn’t like it all once I started shooting it.

I’d love to try one suppressed. The serious gun is a 17 with an RMR and X300. It’s almost boring hitting steel past 100 with it.

It takes some getting used to for sure. I figure it's an up close & personal pistol. Kind of for the point & shoot range.

The SAS does well for what it was designed for in my very limited experience; not getting hung up during draw.

Everybody posts pretty target pics, you'll never have to worry about that from me as far as pistol goes. I know what fundamentals I'm not doing correctly/consistently so that allows me to do my part to keep ammo manufacturers in business.

Next time out I'll have more time to slow down. I can see already that this new pistol will allow me to extend my range, eventually.

Back in the 1980s the Maryland State Police switched over to Sig for their service pistols.
I watched a State Trooper hit the decocker, finger away from the trigger, and put a round in the wall.

I've stayed away from Sig ever since then.

The militaries "procurement" process for the Sig P320 just further enhanced my opinion of Sig.

I'm not a Glock guy either, but would have been the better choice.

Your opinion is duly noted @std7mag.

I agree. It’s crazy to me Sig’s marketing and clear government swindling for those contracts is enough to sway the general public into purchasing from them.

They sure do feel nice in the hands though. I just can’t trust a firearm with so much conspicuous clout around it.

Congrats on and enjoy your new pistol regardless of our opinions!

Big fan of my P365. The extended mag holds 17 rounds and makes for a better grip length for my hands, but still conceals easily.
