Why I Don’t Carry My Sig Sauer P365’s

Watch the p365 vs hellcat 500 rounds each in one video here: https://youtu.be/wdP5VtRV8EU?si=f5Mvx8KhpQPk8JCJ

I have 2 P365’s. Your the only one I know who doesn’t like em. They are easy to shoot, to clean, they are accurate, great capacity, eats everything, concealable. I’ve put a thousand rounds through each. I use em for church security, sweat, no rust issues. I couldn’t disagree more.

If people don’t like them sell them if you can’t trust them. Makes no sense to just keep it for no reason.

I'm glad to see you use the words "I" and "My" in your title. You've had some bad experiences with your Sig P365s and therefore have decided not to carry them. I have been shooting for 50 years. I've owned Colt, Ruger, Glock, Springfield Armory, Beretta, HK, Kimber, Browning and other handguns that had something either go wrong or just irritate me. If I were to go on a pontifical rant on every manufacturer that produced a lemon, I would have to resort to carrying a sword. With the knowledge that no manufacturer can create a perfect gun, my Sig P365s have functioned with zero issues with any of them. None of them rusted, although my Colt, Beretta, and Kimber did. So, you don't trust your P365; I'm happy that you have something else to carry every day. I'll keep carrying mine. Every day. Why? Because after so many rounds, I trust it.

I've owned Glocks and Sigs for 35 years. I've never had an issue with either brand. I've found both to be equally reliable. I currently carry a Sig P365 X-Macro and haven't had a single issue you're complaining about.

That a serious Handgun Acquisition Disorder

Ive owned the original p365 for 4 or 5 years now. Carried it concealed 75% of that time. No rust and has been through several thousand rounds and i honestly can't remember it ever giving me an issue. Btw i live in Florida so its seen its share of sweat too. Been great for me but by all means enjoy you chonky glocks fan bois!✌️

Trust is about emotions, and emotions are very personal. So the fact that you don't trust Sigs is entirely unhelpful to me. You had some malfunctions in one Sig, big deal. I had 2 Glocks malfunctioning bad in the past. Does this mean I'll never carry a Glock again? You heard about other people's rust issues with Sigs, as everyone by now did. I had a Walther, a H&K rust on me, and recently saw a rust blanket on a friend's Shield Plus. So what? Does this mean I'll never carry a Walther or a Shield Plus? Come on. I totally respect your nervousness about Sig, I just don't know what to do with it. Those are your feelings. I'll stick to your factual content, which I happen to enjoy a lot. This happens not to be one of your factual videos.

I recently got a 365 in 380 because I wanted a micro compact that I could shoot better than the 9mm version. I've shot the 9mms before and done okay, but nothing special. Despite doing my fair share of handgun shooting, I have never really considered myself the greatest shot with anything other than a full size pistol. But the 365 in 380 is the first compact firearm to truly inspire confidence in my aim, especially after adding the XL grip module and a Hogue grip sleeve. I've never fired as quickly or as accurately with a smaller handgun before. Many people will probably sneer at the thought of using a 380 that large as a primary EDC, but it works for me so I don't care. I did consider other similar options like the Glock 42 and S&W EZ, but I wasn't impressed by their lack of capacity. Going with a .380 as a primary CCW is already a huge compromise, so compromising on capacity as well didn't make much sense to me. Anyways, the only other option that came up in my research was the Ruger Security 380. It definitely fit the capacity requirements, but felt like a cheap, chunky brick in my hand compared to the SIG. No, a 365 may not be for everyone, and that's completely okay! Mine hasn't had any reliability issues as of yet, but it is a little concerning to hear about the rust issue with yours. I'll definitely have to keep an eye on it. Thanks for the video!

“I don’t like Sigs.” “This is my favorite Sig.” 😂😂 I do like your videos though.

Been carrying the 365xl for 3 years now. Added the Wilson combat grip mod a year ago. I have never had a problem with it at all. I will admit the fcu is a puzzle box. No rust issues as of now.

I have several P365. I have 2 I interchange for daily carry. Both are original short frames with curved triggers. One is a ported SAS, the other has an XL slide. They each have over 5k rounds through them. They use the same magazines because I just pick up a different gun with the same go pack. They go in the same holster. I don't like the flat trigger. The XL frame is fine, but it's more difficult to conceal. Im not sure what your experience is different from mine, but mine make carrying dramatically easier than the smallest Glock

I have carried the same Glock 26 Gen 3 for over 9 years. No rust, shoots flawlessly, I clean and lube a couple times a year. It's the TOYOTA LAND CRUISER of the Firearm world. May not be pretty but the reliability is!

The only problem I've had with my p365 has been light primer strikes with Winchester white box 124 grain all bought at the same time a couple years back other than that not a single issue with any other ammo brands. It is my EDC and I trust my life with it.

I just purchased a P365 here in California. I'm waiting for my "ten days." Your point about the simplicity of the Glock is something I strongly considered. My G19 always goes bang even though I feed it only my reloads with range brass from who knows where. I wanted a G48 but California says No! I'll find out soon enough if the Sig holds up.

So I have a 365XL and have carried it for about 2 years and have had zero rust issues, I also clean it the least out of all of my guns. I cannot say the same thing about my SW. I have 3, all three of them have rust on them sadly. I do clean and oil my guns after range days.

I have a 365 9mm with thumb safety. I haven’t yet had any issues. Only beef is that mags are really hard to load to capacity when new. Other than that, it works fine. I noted that they have. A lot of packing gunk on them when new that really ought to be cleaned off. I was a Glock guy since 1987. They work and are very durable and simple. I hate the shape of the factory trigger shoe however. Few options when you kind of need to keep the carry gun stock. In 30 plus years of Glock shooting and carrying, I’ve seen slides and internals rust. Rare but it will happen when they’re neglected. Still shot, but they’ll rust.

As a long time fan I remember when you were having those issues with your seer in your p365. That would be super frustrating for anyone. As an admitted sig fan boy I do have to say that I feel as though sig gets a bad rap. The p320 issues were unexcusable but I do feel like the p365xl is the best concealed carry option for a multitude of reasons and as a huge spokesperson for cc I feel like you should through it through an extensive torture test and see if your assumptions about sig are true. Admittedly only because I can't afford to and I am very curious about the trigger issues specifically lol. Anyway much love and God bless.

I and the P365 had irreconcilable differences so we separated. If it works for you, use it. My choice should have no bearing on yours. I don't really get the rust issue. My well under $200 LCP has spent 2,000+ days in my hip pocket and not a spot of rust.

Can confirm, I traded in my P365 X-Macro Comp because of rust issues. My rust started on the optic cut screws, and eventually my irons as well. I cleaned it weekly, covered the slide with a small amount oil and still ran into issues. Traded it in for a Glock 43X, not looking back
