The P365 is a micro-compact, striker-fired 9mm pistol developed by SIG Sauer, renowned for its high-capacity magazine in a small frame, making it a popular choice for concealed carry. Over time, SIG has introduced various variations of the P365 including the P365 XL, P365 SAS featuring anti-snag design elements, and the P365X which combines features from both the original and XL models.
The P365X is a variation of SIG Sauer's popular P365 micro-compact pistol, combining the shorter slide of the original P365 with the extended grip of the P365 XL, allowing for a 12-round standard capacity. This hybrid design offers users enhanced capacity and grip length without significantly increasing the pistol's overall size, making it a sought-after choice for concealed carry enthusiasts.
The P365XL is an extended version of SIG's P365, featuring a longer slide, an integrated rear sight plate for optics, and an extended grip that accommodates a 12-round standard magazine.
Its design retains the concealability of the original while offering improved sight radius, increased capacity, and the option for red dot optics, making it a versatile choice for both everyday carry and range use.
The P365 SAS (SIG Anti-Snag) is specifically designed with a streamlined, snag-free profile for smoother draws and holstering. It achieves this by incorporating a flush-mounted FT Bullseye sight that eliminates the need for a protruding front or rear sight, making it an optimal choice for concealed carry users who prioritize a sleek, unobtrusive design.
The Sig P365 XMacro stands out in the P365 lineup with its impressive 17-round capacity, housed in a compact frame that challenges the dimensions of many larger guns. This model also introduces magazines that closely resemble the size of the extended P365 15-round versions released earlier.
