Just how different is it vs a shield? Have shields in 9mm and 45 and really like them

I can't speak to SIGs produced in the past 10 years...but the SIGs I have that are over 10 years old are stellar handguns. They are reliable, accurate, and have the best SA/DA triggers I've ever fired.
My P-220 Carry is in the top 3 handguns I own. This place is filling up with kiddies. |

I do too, but I’m not so ignorant as to believe that MIM parts are inherently of poor quality because they come from India. If you don’t wanna buy a SIG, don’t. No one cares what you do. Just like no one cares what I do. But spouting off just because “it’s made in India!!!” is intellectually dishonest. Now if you have comprehensive studies with data sets that indicate that MIM, and specifically Indian MIM, parts are more prone to failure, I’ll happily join the chorus. But for all my SIGs, I’ve had exactly 1 part breakage. The firing pin on my 1994 P229. Which, if I’m not mistaken, was milled at the time and either American or maybe more likely German made. |

This. It would have been a hands-down massive success without the Indian MIM bullshit. And to be clear, that's not a MIM complaint, that's a dot-not-feather complaint; I wouldn't drop a dollar on a friggin' doorstop with parts made in India, let alone a firearm. I don't need P365 experience to say that. Anyone that trusts any sort of component made in India, or a company that would put some of them in their supply chain, needs their head examined. They will most likely sort it out just fine, but it's a big black eye for them. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Quoted: I've used both the foxtrot365 and the tlr-6, both were good but my preference was the tlr-6. The biggest issues i had with the sig offering were I'm not a fan of pressure switches on handgun mounted lights and having to take the light off to change the batteries. https://i.imgur.com/uoYtiEu.jpg After shooting the shield, 43, and 365 they all work as advertised. Everything else is subjective and user preference. To me the 43 and shield both take effort in applying the fundamentals to shoot well. Not so much the 365. Just vaguely get a sight picture and press of the trigger and the round goes where I want. As far as build quality, the finish on the 43 is shit. You look at it wrong and it scratches. The glock and shield take the most effort and after market to make them more comfortable to shoot. The 365 just needed a light and it was good to go. Im not brand loyal in any sense, but the 365 impressed me on the range. A gun that small shouldn't be fun to shoot, but it is. View Quote |

Quoted: Every gun in your pic has an extended mag. Why not just buy guns with longer grips, like the 43X? View Quote All accounts from the Sig forums is Sig corrected the problems last July. A few hundred rounds in, I'm digging mine. So many rounds and so shootable for how small it is. If you look at the slide height, this is the first Sig with a competitive low bore axis.

I like my P365 a lot. It shoots well, has nice sights and trigger from the factory, and it’s remarkably accurate for its size.

Maybe versatility to allow for shorter 10rd if needed? Worth pointing out the Sig holds 12 right now and is still noticeably shorter than the 43X. They have 15rd Sig factory mags coming that I bet will be the same length as the G43X and 10rd mags. Additionally, with the Sig being a removeable FCG, I bet you will see orderable longer grips that only accept the longer mags without the spacers, for those who don't need the shortest package.

After I got my 320s back from the “voluntary upgrade,” they were put away and haven’t come out since.
Don’t carry ‘em. Won’t carry ‘em. Don’t trust trust ‘em. With the issues the 365 had, I’m glad I never bought one, because it would be collecting dust too. Had a 43, now I have a 43X too. I won’t be gong back to SIG. I gave them a chance and they fucked it up, IMO. |

I have one (5/11/18 build) and it has not malfunctioned once yet. http://i65.tinypic.com/htczrc.jpg That being said... I do NOT carry it anymore. I do NOT trust it, because of THIS (mine exhibits the WORST primer swipes I have ever witnessed, personally, in my life. I don't foresee this Indian MIM striker lasting long with the constant force of it spilling primer OVER the primer pocket into the rim base ) http://i67.tinypic.com/qsjh8y.jpg Yeah, and before the usual suspects chime in with the "all micro's do that!"... then show me your samples. I'd love to see if they're as bad as mine. No one has taken me up on that challenge yet (because theirs doesn't). Yes, primer swipe is normal. NO, EXCESSIVE primer swipe (to the point of passing the primer pocket!) is NOT. The slide is also a sloppy fit on mine (clacks loudly when pistol abruptly moved/shaken), which doesn't exactly exude quality (c'mon sig..), but that's really a non issue for me, so long as it doesn't affect function.
