SIG reckons their new P365 is the “ultimate” everyday carry gun — 365 days of the year! (Press release and video below.) The brand’s marketing mavens call the striker-fired 9mm pocket pistol a “High-Capacity Micro-Compact.” We’re talking 10+1 rounds, “nearly a 50 percent capacity increase over pistols in its class.” I’m more impressed with the standard-issue SIGLITE® night sights. At $599 msrp, plus $55 for a 12-round mag, plus $80 for a holster, cheap it ain’t. Want one? . . .
Press release: Newington, NH (January 8, 2018) – SIG SAUER, Inc. introduces the new High-Capacity Micro-Compact P365 – the ultimate concealed carry pistol. This revolutionary striker-fired 9mm pistol offers the perfect balance of capacity and concealment with unrivaled shootability and ergonomics . . .
The P365’s patent-pending, narrow-neck, modified double-stack magazine holds 10 rounds in both the flush-fit and extended versions, plus one in the chamber, for a full capacity of 11 rounds – nearly a 50 percent capacity increase over pistols in its class.
An optional 12-round extended magazine equips this micro-compact pistol with full-size 13-round capacity, allowing you to carry more, everyday – 365 days a year. The P365 is also smaller and lighter than most other pistols in its class, measuring 1-inch wide, 5.8-inches long, and 4.3-inches tall with a barrel length of 3.1-inches. It weighs just 17.8 ounces with an empty magazine.
The unique grip design and higher grip to bore axis reduces perceived recoil and makes the P365 as comfortable to shoot as many mid-sized pistols. The grip is fully-textured polymer with a slim-line rail that will accommodate SIG light or laser accessories. The stainless-steel slide comes standard with front and rear serrations for easier slide manipulation, as well as SIGLITE® night sights for faster sight acquisition under all lighting conditions.
“As a company, we are relentless in our quest to be better – to constantly improve upon our existing products and to design and build superior products than those currently on the market,” said Ron Cohen, CEO and President of SIG SAUER.
“The P365 is a result of this push. We built this pistol around our new, proprietary magazine for maximum concealability, capacity and shootability. The P365 is a pistol for professionals and civilians alike who want a smaller, high-performance pistol that does it all. This is the ultimate, everyday concealed carry pistol.”
Disassembly is safe and easy with a three-point takedown that does not require the trigger to be pulled. A generous trigger guard undercut also allows for a higher hand position and better retention. The narrowing magazine design allows the upper part of the grip to be perfectly contoured to fit the shooter’s thumb when fired.
In continued partnership with Blackpoint Tactical, one of the nation’s premier holster manufacturers, SIG SAUER is offering a series of concealment holsters specifically designed for the P365. Immediately available for order are the Blackpoint APX and IWB holster variants.
As a complete systems provider, SIG SAUER will be launching several new products specifically designed to complement the P365. Products will include ammunition optimized for everyday carry, a high-performance weapon light, a laser sight, a P365 compatible suppressor and a P365 air pistol. Announcements and press releases will be forthcoming on each of these exciting and new P365 products.

That is TOTAL HORSE —–!
A company that puts a hunk of crap on the market like that wouldn’t get another chance EVER. I trust my life that each and every time I pull my P229, it will go bang. It has NEVER failed me nor did my P226 ever fail even once. As I have said in previous comments, my current P229 went into the river with me after I slipped on shore and fell in.t. I got to shore, drained the water out of the barrel, went home and fired all 13 rounds out. Not a single failure. Then I did a major cleaning.
Having a self-defense weapon that a person doesn’t have 100% confidence in is like having a rock for defense.
I am 100% certain that a rock will function as a rock 100% of the time. 🙂
No hammer, no danke. BTW, is that a faux rail on the front?…Can’t recall ever seeing that before.
A “faux rail” LoL! As long as there’s a faux suprssor accessory, it’s a done deal.
I’d check it out. Definitely not going to be an early adopter like with my P320c. Though… I love that thing to death, but i still gotta remember that it needs to be sent back home. I bought a G43 for having a tiny, lightweight gun around. If this can do that AND have the same grip angle as my P320 then that would be enough for me to feel a little envious.
I really wanna ask if it’s drop safe.
On a serious note, G26 has been doing this for, oh, 20 years now? Proprietary rail so I HAVE to buy their light, $55 mags?
Go home Sig. I get the sentiment about “thin” guns, but people really need to man up. Carrying a firearm is not difficult, and this BS about width is just a pansy excuse to carry a single stack.
It’s much lighter and smaller than a G26 and some people don’t have those sexy curves like you do to conceal a girthy gun…
Take new people shooting.
The end.
Disarmament of those accused of DV/intimate partner violence/pet abuse is already Federal law. If you ever apply for Federal employment or military you will find out that you need a Lautenburg order from the judge after your restraining order or DV arrest to restore your gun rights whether you were convicted of DV/pet abuse or not.
Good luck competing with the Shield at that price. It’s a lot of extra dollars for a couple extra rounds.
Only by conviction.
Accusations are not an argument unless and until they can proved in court. No amount of emotionalism or anecdotal stories from alleged victims will ever change this, either. False accusations occur far and away much, much more often than one could possibly imagine.
ok I have a sccy and I spell reaaly bad but this little shit has been to hell and back and keeps going my 11 year old girl loves to shoot it and when I say to hell and back it has gone thought some crazy things I know bad grammer and spell
I like it. Always liked SIGs (used to carry a P290) and always wondered why someone didn’t make a 1″ wide gun with 10 rounds that’s not a Glock 26. I carried a G26 for a while and it was always that blocky end that printed. My LC9s and PX4 Compact have sloped ends that melt under clothing.
Thanks for finally talking about >Gear Review: Meprolight FT Bullseye
Sight – The Truth About Guns <Loved it!
This is very interesting.
You use the speed strip to reload from cover. There are lulls. Most of us don’t live in the world of Reservoir Dogs or Lara Croft — dropping mags and reloading in the midst of a 10-way crossfire.
What, you don’t John Wick your way to work like I do?
Stay out of a few high crime/gang areas nationwide and the j frame and speed strip are very viable carry options.
I too am a cautious optimist in this and many other ways. I too avoid sketchy areas and situations, but I do carry TWO speed strips for my S&W snubbie. 🙂
I would say a revolver in .357 Magnum four inch or better barrel a various load from shotshell, deer load to heavy penetration is best or at minimum a 9 mm semi auto for human threats.
Personally Grizzly or remote areas I would carry S&W M-25-5 four inch barrel .45 Colt with appropriate loading, shotshell and such. Around here a S&W M-640 or the Ruger LCP II will do humans being the biggest threat with Coyotes second.
I have never been hiking and needed a firearm, I carry a knife though Buck Nighthawk.
Television ads reach and influence a lot of people. A few years ago the New Jersey Fish & Wildlife ran a few commercials aimed at children and parents. The campaign was titled “Take Me Fishing”. After the commercials aired, my fishing buddies and I were contacted by several parents whose children wanted to go fishing, but the parents had never been fishing and they wanted to know how and where to start.
Perhaps the NSSF can run a “Take Me Shooting” television ad campaign.
Whoever is runnin Meopta needs to learn how to price his products…. 1 grand for a magnifying glass? Get real Meopta!
People bitch about Aimpoint and their best-in-class optics that come at about 2/3 the price… I don’t know what their marketing department was smoking when they told them that they could sell these things at those prices.
I have a Model 70 Featherweight in .243 made in 1993. It is a beautiful gun and I have taken nearly three dozen deer with it. That being said, it has cost me a couple of deer due to jamming issues on the follow-up shot. I don’t know about all this controlled round feed, controlled round with push feed, etc., I just know it has jammed on a couple of occasions — using the same type of ammo for 20 years. I switched to a Remington Model 700 in .243 with true push feed and haven’t had any jamming issues on 2nd shots–on deer or at the range. The Model 70 may be a prettier gun but the Remington is more reliable in my opinion.
It’s winter. I wear a coat and carry a 92A1 in a Wilson Combat OWB holster. In warm weather it’s a PPS M2 in a single clip IWB. Looks like a nice gun but I have all the carry guns I need.
Lawds save us from the folks who turn in an empty M-72 LAAWS tube!
So LEO can’t brag about the HAWK Missile launcher taken off the street.
All of my rifles have muzzles and triggers. Does that look too much like an evil assault weapon?
With the brown wooden stock, and tech sights on it, my Ruger 10/22 could look like an M-14 to someone not familiar with guns (e.g. anyone subject to Australian gun control laws). Does that count?
Arbitrarily vague laws are the best!
STOP! HAMMER TIME!
Australia gun laws, lost cause .
So, in Australia, they ban rifles based upon superficial, cosmetic characteristics without regard to how or if the rifle functions. How is this different than California, or New York, or Maryland?
At least I have seen homosexuals protest against Muslims in Australia. The crazy gays here want to bring more Muslims to America. Good luck Australia, you will need it.
Submit it to Calif to be put on the roster, Don’t ignore the people in Calif!
i’m in communist cali and i want one. Please put it on the roster.
Another niche round. If it’s still around in 10 years……..who am I kidding. I’ll just ignore it then, too.
Accused of? No. Convicted of? Absolutely. (Which is current law.)
I’d prefer if police departments created a program in which filing a TRO gets you expedited handgun training (as in, same day) and the cops send you home with a weapon and an extra magazine to be turned in once he/she has acquired a personal weapon.
I think that its got some interesting uses when loaded with low recoil shells and fitted with a laser sight. Position the laser dot on the target, make a big boom happen. and repeat as necessary. What’s not to like? You can play out your Mad Max fantasies, defend or knock over 7-11s as you may see fit, and own a completely legal firearm that makes lots of anti gun heads explode. This one is on my list.
I’ll just stick with my Keltec KSG. More controllable with full 12 gauge loads, and holds more ammo.
Consolidate product lines (don’t need 10 variations of 1911)
Introduce more 9mm and 22lr guns to bring in new and young shooters
Make something new, not just repackaged
Promote shooting sports, we should be live streaming matches
Listen to young consumers
Better marketing with less faux tier one mall ninja and more portraying guns as the fun they are
I would say Just take my Money, but its Wilson Combat, so I’m sure that I don’t have enough to begin with.
“The .458 HAM’R is more than capable of cleanly killing any animal in North America…”
They’re not even restricting themselves by claiming the animal has to be a natural native of North America, only that it’s in North America for the occasion.
Suppose a rhinoceros escapes from a zoo, and seeks concealment behind a hippopotamus who’s also on the lam, somewhere near Des Moines.
You know .458 HAM’R is hard to find in Iowa, so you need to expend your ammo judiciously.
When you need to cleanly dispatch both the hippo and the rhino behind it, and you can take only one shot, this is the rifle for the job.
All shotguns should have a stock, period. This thing is a toy and a political statement. Toys and political statements are fine, but they’re not serious weapons.
Well obviously before the ill-convinced 68 GCA…And all the previous “anti-gangster/roaring 20’s ” early 20th century gun control horseshit…I do remember a friend of the family that had one of those similar 20’s -30″s short-barreled shotguns designed for home and apartment defense called the “Home Burglar Defense shotgun.” Because it was from a time before the Government declared itself an “Authoritarian based Police-State…” When the US Constitutional-Bill of Rights still ment something…And community policing didn’t mean getting pulled for a minor traffic stop by heavy-armed paramilitarized police commandos, or STASI with no regard for life ,liberty ,freedom, and the Pursuit of Happiness…Or the US Constitutional-Bill of Rights….Government still feared the wrath of the people, and people were still being represented in the halls of a free government. …Now you have this…Low information voters and “Marching Morons” *politically* afraid of products like this…Or preventing fellow Americans from exercising their 2nd amendment rights to be able to have the choice to purchase one…Like in states like my own that make it very difficult to impossible for a US citizen to purchase/own/posess/ carry, etc…Anything !!!
I want on when will they hit the stores also wish they made it in 44 mag to go with my Ruger 44 mag Deerfield carbine,and my 44 mag super blackjack,my Ruger security 6 in 357 mag,my Ruger lc9 NRA addition and Ruger 10-22
Armchair quarterbacks.
Not one of you can be sure of what you saw
So? What’s that got to do with the price of toothpicks in Hong Kong?
more than a dozen
So 13 than?
in 7 years…
out of 6,000… I am not impressed.
So guns have a lower recidivism rate than the average felon.
Good to know.
If I lived in Massachusetts and was inclined to observe their dangerous “safe storage” law, I would keep a katana (Japanese sword) and a wicked bludgeon up on the walls for easy and instant access.
Think about it: one swift and HARD blow to the dog’s back, close to their neck, would at the very least cause instant paralysis of the hind legs and quite likely the front legs as well. I can only hope that most dogs would stop biting whatever they were biting when a sword or a bludgeon destroys their back and spinal cord.
The purpose of this article, published by anti-gun AP, is to create a basis to support the discontinuation of sales of confiscated guns by police agencies. More guns=more gun crime, of course, and thus the police are contributing to the problem by selling guns. Allegedly. Or not.
Well, reducing the secondary market is one way to help the gun industry.
I don’t get this whole hot gun chic thing. If the only reason you’re watching the videos is to ogle some tramp that’s shooting guns- remember there’s a gazzillion porn sites you can watch for free that skip all the boring fore play….
This genre is an old fashioned marketing gimmick. However, if this sort of nonsense floats your boat….. Have at it!
I’ve never really had a problem with using a stock and wearing a helmet but more power to them
Rob makes a good point and that is self defense is not only about guns. It’s a combination of skills and factors.
Not thrilled with break barrels. I take issue on cocking the rifle with the barrel. Yeah they are cheaper, but make a PCP rifle and I’ll take a look.
Don’t know about the rest of it, but my wife taught me the “kick to the balls” very effectively. I still remember how it was done.
The bad news is the majority of Krav Maga schools are mcdojo dumpster fires. There is a constantly rotating group of bullshit organizations of questionable bona fides that hand out instructor certifications to anyone with cash. Shifty gym owners send some of their folks to these shake and bake week long seminars, and hey presto, they’re a Krav school.
If you want to do Krav, do your research. Check out the organization your prospective school is associated with, it will be pretty apparent which ones are LARPing bullshit. Check out the instructors. Are they soccer mom cardio kick boxing coaches who went to a weekend seminar? The closer you get Israel, the better. If they were instructors, civilian or military, for an extended period in Isreal, you’re probably good to go. If they learned got their training from one of those people, you’re also probably good to go. It also doesn’t hurt if the instructors have a background in other legit (boxing, muay thai, BJJ, etc.) martial arts.
Got the Lee 100th anniversary kit for about $150, came with O-frame loader press, large and small primer feed, powder measure, balance beam scale, books, reamer, pocket tool and some case lube.
Ive loaded THOUSANDS of rounds on that lil guy.
Those who say priming on the single stage is pointless never tried it or aren’t doing it right.
This Lyman press looks and screams direct copy of the Lee.
If it was my money, I’d buy another Lee in a heart beat. The powder drop isn’t the slickest thing to use, but its perfectly accurate, the balance scale has been flawless.
I’m at the point now I only balance check loads if I think there’s a discrepancy or I’ve stepped away from the bench for a bit.
So, not new, and I wouldn’t brag about it Lyman.
Why is he called “The Gun Guy”? To be “The Gun Guy” you actually have to know what the hell you’re talking about and have credibility among others with actual knowledge and experience. He’s the “gun guy” like I’m the trim, super handsome quantum physics astronaut cheetah flip guy. What a crock of Shiite!
Not impressed.
I tried the segmented loads by various manufacturers and was not happy with the results. It all started with Kwik-Shok way back when and others jumped on the bandwagon later on. I wholeheartedly agree with Steve S. on the dismal performance of this concept.
One load that impresses the hell out of me is the Winchester Power Point .22 long rifle!
It’s as accurate as can be and really has the best of two worlds, good penetration and great expansion too. It is my go-to long rifle ammo. Try a box, it is great!
At these prices, they need to be better than Kimber. THAT is a tall order.
Armed Citizens Legal Defense Network is $135 per year for the first year. A reduced rate after that. Spouses come on at a reduced rate as well.
For about $500k in coverage currently, for both criminal and civil legal defense. Includes a great stable of expert witnesses, too.
Yes, they have a panel of experts that looks at your case before they pay above the initial up to $25k in fees to your attorney. If they believe your case appears the least bit righteous, they’ll keep writing checks up to a half-mil.
Or they can recommend an attorney if you’re out of town on vacation or business.
Mention my name of Guns Save Life and save $25 off the first year’s dues. Fair disclosure: I’m not on any commission plan, and GSL doesn’t get any kickbacks either. I recommend them because I think they are the best out there. The best value as well.

Beauty is in the eye…I think it is hideously ugly.
I’m a lefty and I couldn’t give 2 licks about which side the brass comes out.
shit happens. to sit here and say “i would have done this and it wouldn’t have happened” is idiocy. so many keyboard-commando’s here.
