Anyone gotten one yet? It looks fantastic, and I'm 87% certain that I'm going to switch my "service" pistol over to it from my M2.0.

@-KentuckyWindage- has the M18X which is very similar to the M17X.

I bought one last month and got the $200 webstore gift card. Local shop had one NIB for $1200, i figured the optic was worth $800 alone so why not.
I have never shot a p320 before, but I wanted to see what all the drama was about with it, best way is to buy one. Great shooting gun, very soft shooting. The optic is perfect. I put a small X grip on it for my small hands. Still not 100% ready to carry it but its a great gun. |

Yeah, wish I'd keyed in on this during the rebate.
I've got one more place to check locally, then I'll have to buy online and transfer it. I'm guessing this is allocated, and that's why Scheels can't get it for me. |

I got a local shop to order me one of the ones that Rainier had. They beat my mil discount by a few bucks. I save a little, they made some, I'm happy.
I'm very excited to try this optic. I ordered the jig to add a thumb safety as well as the safety itself. I'm looking at all my light-bearing holsters and am just thinking "wow, those are wide open to the trigger." I may get one of those Brouwer frames. They look like a 1911 grip angle. |

Not sure if / when they’ll make it to the regular commercial market. I suspect they’ll the available second hand but expensive, the way the military production pistols are. Attached File |

Rebate was clutch, I paid about $1475 after xfer and then got back the $200. Was hard to tell if it would qualify, but super pleased with how it worked out. View Quote Nice! With that peddle, what type of holster are you using? |

Yep I've done 2 FCUs with a jig just fine, but this one I sent out to AB Protoype. I highly recommend them. Turnaround was like 5 days. Super fast. I cut the grip myself though. Little harder on the Brouwer as the jig that came for the grip in my kit doesn't fit over a slide stop bump out.

I'm waiting for them to release the slides only with the ROMEO-M17 instead of having to by the whole pistol. I imagine it will happen eventually.

Thanks a lot for the info. I’ve been toying with the idea of adding a gas pedal but the holster part always made me pause. |

Look over that optic very carefully before you buy . A LGS just got in two of them on an M17X and a M18X. On one the round reticle was egg shaped and the other was semi flat. Like you take a tennis ball in both hands and squeeze it to make it bow out on the sides .

Mines fine. I shot it a few times tonight to get the optic close to zeroed.
I like it quite a bit. |

I have 1500 rds through mine. Great gun. Coming from Glocks and 2011’s I actually really enjoy the 320. I added the sandpaper talon grip as the sig grips are lacking in texture but otherwise I think sig knocked it out of the park with this one

So I do notice that this trigger is worse than my P320 X-Five Legion.
Can I buy that trigger anywhere, or would I see an improvement with an Apex? |

View Quote The skeletonized flat trigger is a direct drop in and is a good upgrade over the stock trigger. Knock off 2 lbs with no spring change, just cam geometry. Apex if you like the shape of their triggers. My 2 cents, the best aftermarket trigger for the 320 is the Gray Guns flat adjustable competition trigger. You need to be very comfortable taking apart the sear group or have access to an experienced armorer for install. Gray guns will install it for you but time/money. Don't get it if your finger is undisciplined and prone to glock leg yourself. Trigger pull will be in the 2.5 ~ 3.5 lb range depending which springs you go with. |
