I have a P365xl and love it.
I'm considering picking up the smaller P365 for pocket carry with something like a Vedder pocket carry holster. If pocket carry was the primary purpose, would that be a good reason to get the manual safety version? What say all you? Thanks PS: it seems more cost effective to just buy an additional P365 instead of a frame and complete slide and transferring the FCU. Am I wrong on that? |

That's what I've done. I just trained a bunch with it, after adding the safety. I'm not one of those people worried about forgetting to flip it off when I need it.
Ultimately, if it had the same trigger safety like a glock I wouldn't have added the safety. |

A-Holster is a better pocket holster.

My Ruger LCP that I daily pocket carry has no safety at all. But I do carry it in a pocket holster.

Absolutely not, especially with an Alabama Holster.

Small pocket holster and keep nothing else in that pocket. No manual safety. Enjoy.

I prefer a manual safety. Anyone who has carried a 1911 is used to flicking it off when your draw. I like the extra level of safety.
My oldest is looking for a carry gun and she also likes the manual safety. It limits your choices though including taking out any glocks. I’ve used a sticky holster but Aholster is better for pocket carry. |

 How many safety's do you need? I would not own a 365 with one. Been pocket carrying this for somewhere around 5 yrs. It's a very early example. |

I’ve never been a fan of manual safeties on pistols. When I picked up a P365 the only option was with the manual safety. I don’t have to use it, but after familiarizing myself with it, I like it on the P365

I like the manual safety pocket carry or belt holster. Some don’t and that’s fine, but it’s my balls the gun is next too so I go with the safety. One of many reasons I ditched the LCP max was no safety.
Also, don’t get pigeon holed into just 1 pocket holster. Get a few different ones and you’ll find the best combination for the pants or shorts that you are wearing. It’s amazing that one particular holster can feel like your carrying a brick in the pants of the day but another one blends perfectly with the pocket and feels like it disappears. |

The P365 is able to add or remove the safety no matter the version you will just need to buy a new module if you are deleting the safety. If you are adding the safety you will need the safety parts kit and you will need to either buy a new module or cut your existing module for the manual safety. I really like that Sig set the P365 FCU to be modified in way that allows the end user to decide to add or delete a safety. I wish the P320 module was like this. If you have a safety on the P320 you can delete it but you can't add a safety to a non-safety cut FCU.  How to remove and install the SIG Sauer P365 manual safety assembly.

 Attached FileEven with a safety, i feel better having the trigger covered while in my pocket. I use a raven concealment vanguard for iwb or just a kydex trigger guard for inside the pocket. You can attach the lanyard to a belt loop or something. |

I prefer a kydex pocket holster for mine as well as the safety. I think I got it from PJ's holster? maybe?
