When Sig quickly followed up the P365 with the slightly larger P365 XL, it drew an even larger following. The XL has a barrel length of 3.7 inches, compared to the 3.1 inches on the P365. Perhaps more importantly, at its widest point, the XL is a mere 1.1 inches, a quarter of an inch thinner than the G19. Along with the slim dimensions, Sig increased the magazine capacity and offered an extended 15-round magazine.
What you got was a smaller, more concealable, and arguably more comfortable to carry pistol with some of the same attributes of the renowned G19 and a removable FCU.
Finding the Right Accessories
My Glock was equipped with a Trijicon RMR red-dot optic and an Inforce APLc light. So, if I was going to retire it, I wanted to make sure its replacement had both an optic and light. Opinions vary here, but I feel both are essentials on a pistol intended for defensive use.
Fortunately, Streamlight recently released their new light for single-stack pistols, the TLR-7 Sub, and Holosun has their relatively new 507k/407k optics which, again, are designed for slim pistols. With these features checked off and two of Sig’s 15-round mags, the only question left that I saw was, “Which do I shoot better?”
