Picked up a Sig P365 just a bit ago. I’ve heard so much about this pistol I wanted to see for myself what all the hype was about.
I’ve had two range sessions with the P365 so far. From an initial impression perspective, the ergonomics are fantastic. Very small grip(I don’t have large hands) with a 12 round capacity for the 9mm is impressive. By far this is the smallest compact 9mm pistol with this capacity in existence. Other manufacturers are scurrying to not just beat it but at least match it. The gun just feels fantastic in the hand.
Accuracy is nothing spectacular and pretty much what was expected from a short sight radius pistol. Very much acceptable. My initial range sessions have me shooting low at 10-15 yards. As this is a new gun in my arsenal it may very well be me – not the gun. Every gun I own will shoot more accurately than me.
Trigger is good. Not great. Better than most, not as good as others. While trigger pull can be dissected in many ways to show one gun superior to another – I feel trigger pull “quality” is subjective and over-emphasized when it comes to self-defense. Bottomline – trigger pull is more than acceptable.
The reason the Sig P365 is so popular and why I bought it is the capacity. It’s the size of many .380’s and even smaller – with a larger capacity. Hat’s off to Sig!!! I have 10, 12, and 15 round mags. The versatility is a huge plus.
I picked up a small belt-mounted pouch to carry the P365. Why this over a holster? Comfort and no one knows what’s in the pouch.
I’ll update as more experience is gained with the Sig.

I got one a year ago and is my EDC. You’re a good shot if you can hit at 15 yards with this pistol’s barrel length. It’s a great pistol but takes practice and skill even to 10 yards, of course that applies to everything, I guess. At the range I go to, everyone was selling their Glock 43’s and getting the Sig, probably fasting selling pistol in the world now.
If you get a chance try a Glock 54x or G48. Same grip size. Factory 10 rounds, aftermarket 15’s available.
JP,
I’m sure you just fat fingered it and meant Glock 43x not 54x.
Yep. Need to check my typing before I hit “post”.
