It comes with the 17 round magazine because this gun was made for match shooting. The 21 round mag with not fit in the box required for some matches. Has nothing to do with pricing.
Everything he says here is spot on. I have a lot of experience with the 320's in general. Started with a P320 compact in 9mm, then purchased a 320 SC 9mm conversion kit, followed by the X-compact, and x-carry grip modules, and the flat trigger upgrade. For those who don't know, the standard SC slide and barrel fits the Xcompact grip module, and the standard compact slide and barrel fits the X-carry grip module. Basically this allows me to convert between the P320C, SC, Xcompact, and Xcarry, with just one fire control unit. The XFive Legion was a must have. The fit and finish, the overall feel when shooting, the trigger, everything about this firearm is just amazingly perfect. 320's are outstanding in general, but the Legion is just unreal.
I just got one of these. Love the trigger so I bought a carry slide and a Wilson Combat grip module I’ll put the x5 fcu into for edc. Then I’ll have the x5 for range day
Anytime Kevin! Yeah, the 365 is tiny by comparison, lol. Had to do it. Yes, trigger time is a must on this. Keep me posted! Thank you and cheers brother!
You're the man KS! I've been interested to see a review on this gun. You are the first channel I know of to get one. Very cool gun! I kinda want one now
Great review my man! This is going in my collection for sure. They needed to include the 21 round mags for sure. I know I'd be buying more of them anyway. I can't wait to feel the heft of this gem. This gun, the X-Compact, and the P365 would complete the trifecta! Sig is finally stepping up their game again. And as always looking forward to your vids! Take care!!
Thanks Bloody! Yes, you definitely need this one. I think the weight will take you by surprise. Heavy, but well balanced. Lol, I agree on the trifecta. Cheers as always brother!
Your great review just helped my decision. Just purchased this pistol. I am with you as far as the 115 grain loads. I shoot that at the range and don’t see a need for the 14lb spring until I compete. Thanks!
I looked at this gun for about two years. Finally decided to purchase it... couldn't find a single one near me nor around the country. A solid year and a half went by and my father wanted to get a .22 long rifle to get rid of a fox that had been a serious issue for our pug. We walked in and I was simple taking a stroll around the shop (Jays) and sure enough, there it was, a P320 X5 Legion in the case. Some guy custom ordered it online and when it came in, his wife ended up freaking out and told him not to follow through with the purchase. Needless to say, I bought it on the spot. Cannot believe it haha. I LOVE this gun so much and would highly recommend it.
Great gun Ive always been a red fiber guy changed mine out before I ever shot it! Great vids bro! Also I’m loving the 14 lb spring with my 124 grain hand loads!
I bought the original X5 about a year ago and after I fell in love with it just from picking it up! I may by the new grip module. It'll save me from having to buy the new gun but still give me the upgrades in terms of weight. Great review.
This frame is awesome. I like what sig is doing with their gun. Amazing how a military contract can help your company. I've got a p365 p365xl p320 compact. I like what Sigs doing. Never been a sig fan. I'd like to see this in 10mm
shot one and almost wet my pants. what a piece of work. i have a 226 and i ordered a flat trigger from armory craft because of trigger on 320 impressed me so much.
I just came back from the range and shot mine for the 1st time. I had no issues with mine at all. It has the best out of the box trigger I have ever owned. Just for your info. Sig is already selling the the new tungsten infused frame only for $299.00. I also put my long slide 40 S&W on it and it worked fine.
I maintain that you do the absolute best handgun reviews on CZcams!! I agree with you about the longer magazines. In fact, it looks like the 17 round magazines are a little short. That is, they appear to be slightly recessed when fully seated. This looks like a USPSA production winner for sure! I hope you have a great weekend brother!
Thank you very much Texican! Truly means a lot brother. Yes, the 17 rounders sit just inside the magwell. Kind of odd that they did that. Oh well, they still work, lol. Have a great weekend as well! Cheers!
I own a X5 Legion. I recently purchased a CZ Shadow 2. Both guns are very fun to shoot. The Legion has a slightly wider grip (1.238 in) and is slightly lighter (43.5 oz) than th eCZ (1.135 in grip width; 46.5 oz). The Sig comes OR out of the box, so I immediately installed a Romeo 1. The CZ OR was unavailable so I purchased the regular non-OR gun. The CZ has a very soft trigger that needs some practice to get used to. Couldnt say which is the better gun at my level. Love them both.
Great job on the review KS . I have done a few videos on this gun coming out . I have the $$$ . Just waiting to see if it becomes Massachusetts Compliant . The original X5 is . And they are still for sale at my gun store $789 . But I want this one . Love your new intro 💥💥💥 .
When I got my X5 few weeks later the Legion version came out and I was oh well my luck. There's light at the end of the tunnel. Sig sent an email advertising the TXG tungsten infused grip frame for sale.(Legion frame) Will be ordering mine today. Great review as always and I agree the Shadow 2 is hard to beat.
Great to hear about the grips sold by themselves. I think a lot of X5 owners will be checking them out! Hopefully they’ll do that with the X Compact as well. I’d be all over it. Thank you and cheers Keanon!
I love this gun more than my Walther Q5 match SF Pro. I ran 115 grain Fiocchi and didn't have any issues with the gun cycling., I know that ammo is hot but I ran PMC and Geco as well with no issues. I typically let them sit with the slide lock open for a few days before I go shooting. This gives the spring the ability to allow more movement. Great gun though.
Thanks! I've been waiting for this. I love my CZs and Walthers but man this looks like a relative bargain for a comp ready gun out of the box. I might need to find one to fondle!
Hello KS....thanks for all the time you put into your videos. The XFive Legion you sent Honest Outlaw for review had a big stick mag. Would you mind sharing where you can get the extended base plates?
I was looking for my first handgun. I had a lot of experience with different airsoft guns, but absolutely no experience with real firearms. So I went to a shooting range and tried plenty of different handguns. And man, this Sig is the smoothest thing I’ve ever experienced. I’d say it’s closer to airsoft replicas at this point - that’s how smooth it is. I bought it and have no regrets. It’s a wonderful gun, and I can recommend it as a starter.
Sig stopped the 21 round mags because they weren’t legal in any division except open without modification. Realistically nobody is going to use the magwell since it’s not a 40 except 3 gunners
Hello KS.......Thanks for a cool video. I like the look of the ported slide on the Sig. That look alone placed the X5 in a "legion of its own". For the price of the Sig handguns, I am happy to see them package the X5 with 3 magazines. Some of the magazines cost more than a box of 50 rds.
Nice! Its very impressive I was picking one up and the slide had a scratch in the rear slide serrations that was deep 😞 so im waiting till they get another one. Have a awesome weekend.
I have waiting period in my state. But yes, I was looking at many other things and guy at gun shop was like "hey...I got something you should put your hands on". Upon hearing such a thing, I was quite concerned. I was very relieved when he handed me a gun. And oh boy...what a gun it is. Being ex army and having owned many handguns in my time....I have never felt anything like it. Weight and balance are phenomenal in my opinion. First gun that I felt like it was made for me.
I literally just did the same thing today. Walked in to get myself a graduation gift and the guy said I think I have something you might like. Guess he was right.
I love my X5...one of the easiest gun to shoot that I’ve ever fired. It’s a hungry gun...expensive rounds, mid range or the cheapest bargain bin trash you can find. This monster fires it all without complaint. I’ve put over a 1000 rounds through mine not a single issue ever. As far as I can tell the only problem with this gun is having to stop shooting long enough to reload the 3 mags.
Took the plunge and went to the dark side and picked it up. LOVE my Glocks and Hk’s!!! This is my first striker fired Sig. Beautiful pistol and cannot wait to see how it compares to my VP9 Long Slide.
I have shot 115g and 124g NATO with the same coil (purple) and have not experienced any problems (i.e. stovepipe that you mentioned) on the 115g rounds. I used the original 17 round magazine so I wonder if that may have something to do with the stovepiping since you used the 21 round magazine. Just thinking out loud. BTW, great review. I think the gun is incredible but I am a biased SIg owner. I also have the P226 Legion and the P938 Legion.
Please hurry up and do the Sig vs CZ Shadow 2 comparison! Honestly my very 1st thought when I heard about this gun, is "how does it compare to the Shadow "? Thanks for the review, looks like an excellent pistol. Cant wait for the If I Could Only Have 1 video 😉
Nice video!! Sig just emailed me to try and buy this frame for $300, and recently emailed me about several hundred dollar slides. Frankly for all this cost and weight, I’d rather go with the P226. It’s neat they are offering options, they just seem over priced. Funny you mentioned the takedown lever, mine has always been a bear.
Thank you! I agree that steel is awesome but there is something exciting about the tungsten frame and it truly feels amazing. Thank you and cheers Scott!
Ryan Banman good luck fellas but I'm afraid you are outnumbered by a very large margin. My ex is a Canadian and I spent much time in Ontario and I would get an ear full by almost everyone once they found out I was a gun guy.
Ryan Banman yeah I don't understand it either, but a firearm is so normal here it doesn't bat an eye. Canadian trucker huh? Any money in that up there?
Ryan Banman thankfully there is still money in it down here in the states. I drive myself locally and home everynight. Definitely don't want to do it forever my a cdl is like gold down here.
Ryan Banman man a lot of you all go to fire training in Texas. Lol my ex's friends fiancé in Canada went down there for fire school. Fire is hard to break out into up there from hearing him talk about it.
Ryan Banman I know what you mean. We are all puppets to big government. Makes me sick. Can always learn a trade brother. Working on power lines is in demand everywhere and you could utilize your cdl at the same time since they are required to have them.
I held a P320 x5 legion today and like you said it was a little difficult to insert the magazine. When I put inthe mag it felt like it was recessed in. So,like you said it would be better with a 21 round mag.
i trigger thud, has completely disappeared in the m17 after 3000 rds its so great now, i hope the same happens to the xfive. m17 after being broke in is as good as my old preupgrade p320 that trigger was perfect.
Great informative review. Have had some interest in this new pistol but haven't found an in depth look of it until I received a notification for your review. I've always liked the look of the P320 X5. This Legion version has even more eye candy. Sig's metal infused grip module wizardry is a great innovation to add weight, and keep costs down. By comparison, the Walther Q5 steel frame nearly doubles the cost (ouch!!) of the standard Q5 Match, which I currently own and really enjoy shooting. The price point of this Legion version though would place it in between the standard Walther Q5 Match and CZ Shadow 2. I love match pistols and this new X5 Legion might just earn its way into my growing collection before the Shadow 2.
Thank you Driver! I do agree about the look with X5. I think it’s a very visually appealing gun. The tungsten in the frame really is a great feature and you can see the difference immediately at the range. Good point about it landing between the standard Q5 and Shadow 2. That would make for an interesting comparison! Cheers brother!
@@KSGunGuy01 It also appears that H&K is throwing their hat into the mid-tier polymer based 9mm match pistol arena, (long description) with the HK VP9L. For now it appears to be only a separate barrel/slide combo for about $325. Add the $550 cost of the VP9 and you have an $875, 5" barreled match pistol. So many choices, wish I could buy them all.
Haha!! That's awesome James! They really are great guns indeed. I was oogling over the coyote version yesterday. Thankfully, I restrained. Thank you and cheers!
I have never been interested in a Sig before and have only handled a couple.....but had someone hand me one last week and now I can't stop thinking about it LOL
Gotta ask since I'm curious. (Edited since I found this question answered, it is cut for Romeo 1 Pro/DPP which is EXCELLENT to see, which means it'll take the Romeo 1T and Romeo 2 as well) I see a lot of people mentioning the weight is over for IDPA by half an ounce...but couldn't that be remedied by simply changing the magwell to a lighter one or removing the internal weight in the grip? Will you be a doing a revisit to the "If I could only have one" between the Shadow 2 and this one? Would be nice to see Shadow 2 vs X-5 Legion and PPQ Q5 SF Match against each other (without trigger mods).
A while back you did a review on the standard X5 vs the Shadow 2. You seemed to like both but preferred the shadow. How about this X5 Legion vs the shadow, does it beat the shadow or come close?
320 X5 rear sight is jacked up because Sig decided to put a taller than needed front sight on it. Even Dawson told me they suggested a shorter front to Sig , but they still kept it. some say the reason is that the romeo would co witness with the taller front sight i have held the new legion. man what a brick. its as heavy as my 2011. also the 21 rd mags are not legal for uspsa 140mm as they were jsut slightly too long with the stock floor plates.
Outstanding review, KSGG! I love the idea of the increased grip module weight. I wish there was a way to quantify the difference over polymer frame. The Full Size is such a sweet shooter, I can imagine the X-Five is incrementally better and it would be fun to see what the heavier tungsten one improves/changes. Two pertinent points. One, I got an email from Sig just yesterday telling me they are now selling the tungsten grip separately. Two, my X triggers arrived today and I got them in my three non-XCarry P320’s. They work as advertised and, in my case, even better. All three have had the safety recall done and the triggers worked in all three, including the 90° break. The added benefit for me was that they removed all traces of the tiny bit of squishiness I was feeling since the recall; they are practically as “tight” as my X Carry. The Apex triggers were a vast improvement, these are even better. So now I have the X trigger in my Full Size. If I get the tungsten grip module I guess I’ll have an “almost X5”. My old Sub Compact is now virtually an X-Compact. It’s like Barbie dolls for men!
Thank you Jake! Yes, the heavier frame makes a huge difference in my opinion. It’s effortless to shoot. Congrats on the triggers! I’m glad you like them. Your full size will definitely be close to the X5 and you won’t want to shoot anything else, lol. Cheers brother!
The Sig Sauer P320 X Five is better for duty / carry purposes, aside from the fact that it comes with four 21-round magazines. The Legion is made for target match competition / home defense. I am very happy with my X Five
@@rasmuspedersen3563 There was a P320 X Five model, replaced by the X Five Legion. The difference is the frame. The former is polymer, and the latter the frame is tungsten infused.
Sold nearly all my glocks to switch to Sig for carry and competition. Now I am transitioning from the xfive legion to a STI Staccato XL for USPSA. My ONLY complaint on this xfive legion is the trigger reset. I find myself screwing up when in a hurry at competitions and not resetting it all the way so it holds me back a second to reset properly. If it had a shorter reset it would be the best gun hands down.
I wish you did the DH3 as well. I have the DH3 9mm and it's amazing. I bought the X-Carry Legion and not the X5 because I knew I was getting the DH3 so I have both. I would like to hear your thoughts between the two!
I absolutley love my standard PPQ... Over 5,000 rounds through it and Zero malfunctions! but I think Walther kind of shot themselves in the foot by not making the Q5 match or SF Q5 match with a slightly longer grip and 21 round mags in order to properly compete with the Shadow or other proper race guns! Especially with the price of the SF version!
Put an Align Tactical gas pedal/takedown lever on this P 320 Legion and you will notice even better handling characteristics. I installed one on my HK VP9 and it help[ed me immensely.
Ha, my husband's carry is p365. My home defense is the xfive Legion. Man do we love our firearms.
My carry is the p365 and I'm here checking out th legion for home defense 😂
My carry is p365 XL, just got X5 legion recently and am excited to try it out.
I carry a legion with a compact slide and muzzle break with a rmr conversion plate with raised suppressor sights to cowitness with the holosun

That's the most thorough review of a gun I have ever watched. thanks! Thinking of getting one.

I just bought mine yesterday after watching your review, and I absolutely love it! Appreciate the help on the decision with this video!

I just got one of these. Love the trigger so I bought a carry slide and a Wilson Combat grip module I’ll put the x5 fcu into for edc. Then I’ll have the x5 for range day
Great thorough video, enjoyed it very much. Subscribed and Liked.
Thanks KS for the information on the X5! Had me laughing at the size comparison. Man I really want to get some trigger time on one. Much love y'all!

Very good job ty 👍
Just pick up 1. Love it. No problem at all. Once again, great video.
How much did you pay for it?
Right on! Thank you and cheers!
The magazine thing is likely for the gun to fit “the box” for one of the gun games. Keep in mind, that is what the gun was made for! Great video!
That is absolutely what it's for.
Excellent point brother! Thank you and cheers!
In my opinion this is one of the best looking gun out there....I've always liked the look of the HK P2000 as well
Those P2000s are definitely cool looking! Thank you and cheers!
No problem. I enjoy watching
I picked mine up on Friday. I can't wait until they come out with the X5 version of the Pro-Cut slide so I can make it super!
That would be very cool! Thank you and cheers!
It's the first gun I never heard of and researched for months that I impulse bought, after seeing it and holding it, 30 minutes later I owned it.
I have waiting period in my state. But yes, I was looking at many other things and guy at gun shop was like "hey...I got something you should put your hands on". Upon hearing such a thing, I was quite concerned. I was very relieved when he handed me a gun. And oh boy...what a gun it is. Being ex army and having owned many handguns in my time....I have never felt anything like it. Weight and balance are phenomenal in my opinion. First gun that I felt like it was made for me.
I literally just did the same thing today. Walked in to get myself a graduation gift and the guy said I think I have something you might like. Guess he was right.
@@Dude_liftz I keep watching the clock lol
@Mike WV Now I am doing the same thing with a CZ Scorpion Evo 3 S1 pistol/carbine hybrid thingy 🤦♂️
That recoil spring was so light!!! Definitely a pistol to consider for competition for sure!
Well said brother! Thank you and cheers!
I love my X5...one of the easiest gun to shoot that I’ve ever fired. It’s a hungry gun...expensive rounds, mid range or the cheapest bargain bin trash you can find. This monster fires it all without complaint. I’ve put over a 1000 rounds through mine not a single issue ever. As far as I can tell the only problem with this gun is having to stop shooting long enough to reload the 3 mags.
Nice review KS. Is this gun too big and heavy for an everyday carry?
Took the plunge and went to the dark side and picked it up. LOVE my Glocks and Hk’s!!! This is my first striker fired Sig. Beautiful pistol and cannot wait to see how it compares to my VP9 Long Slide.
Right on! I think you’ll love it. Thank you and cheers!
@@KSGunGuy01 see how it stacks against my Custom Shop Shadow 2 for recoil and accuracy The CZ is one of my favorites.
I am waiting for mine,is a Dandy,great pistol. Thanks for your reviwed
I think you will really like it! Thank you and cheers Jose!
I have shot 115g and 124g NATO with the same coil (purple) and have not experienced any problems (i.e. stovepipe that you mentioned) on the 115g rounds. I used the original 17 round magazine so I wonder if that may have something to do with the stovepiping since you used the 21 round magazine. Just thinking out loud. BTW, great review. I think the gun is incredible but I am a biased SIg owner. I also have the P226 Legion and the P938 Legion.
Please hurry up and do the Sig vs CZ Shadow 2 comparison! Honestly my very 1st thought when I heard about this gun, is "how does it compare to the Shadow "? Thanks for the review, looks like an excellent pistol. Cant wait for the If I Could Only Have 1 video 😉
I’ll definitely be working on that video soon my friend. Thank you and cheers!
been on the fence between the X5 and the Shadow 2. You have almost convinced me the X5 Legion is the wat to go.....Thx
I went the other way and got the Shadow 2 Tactical and love it. I like the CZ brand so much I bought the CZ P01
Nice video!! Sig just emailed me to try and buy this frame for $300, and recently emailed me about several hundred dollar slides. Frankly for all this cost and weight, I’d rather go with the P226. It’s neat they are offering options, they just seem over priced. Funny you mentioned the takedown lever, mine has always been a bear.
Thank you! I agree that steel is awesome but there is something exciting about the tungsten frame and it truly feels amazing. Thank you and cheers Scott!
I love mine! Best 9mm I own next to the Sig Sauer p226
I have the legion such a sexy gun … sig really did well on this
Love the ram ranch intro
converted my 226 to dawson sights and flat trigger. tried legion and was stunned.
It is a simple process to swap the mag release. All you need is a paper clip.. takes about 30 seconds.
You're making it very difficult for me to decide what I want for Christmas, KS.
I’m Canadian and passed my restricted course license and this is going to be my first handgun 👍🏻✌🏻🇨🇦 great review!
Ryan Banman good luck fellas but I'm afraid you are outnumbered by a very large margin. My ex is a Canadian and I spent much time in Ontario and I would get an ear full by almost everyone once they found out I was a gun guy.
Ryan Banman yeah I don't understand it either, but a firearm is so normal here it doesn't bat an eye. Canadian trucker huh? Any money in that up there?
Ryan Banman thankfully there is still money in it down here in the states. I drive myself locally and home everynight. Definitely don't want to do it forever my a cdl is like gold down here.
Ryan Banman man a lot of you all go to fire training in Texas. Lol my ex's friends fiancé in Canada went down there for fire school. Fire is hard to break out into up there from hearing him talk about it.
Ryan Banman I know what you mean. We are all puppets to big government. Makes me sick. Can always learn a trade brother. Working on power lines is in demand everywhere and you could utilize your cdl at the same time since they are required to have them.
I held a P320 x5 legion today and like you said it was a little difficult to insert the magazine. When I put inthe mag it felt like it was recessed in. So,like you said it would be better with a 21 round mag.
Just went in to the armory to fill out the BGP for ours today. T-minus 2 weeks❣️
KS! thats a good looking gun, ingot a x5 when the price dropped. love it!
i trigger thud, has completely disappeared in the m17 after 3000 rds its so great now, i hope the same happens to the xfive. m17 after being broke in is as good as my old preupgrade p320 that trigger was perfect.
It truly is awesome Bert! Well worth the price on this one. Thank you and cheers!
Great informative review. Have had some interest in this new pistol but haven't found an in depth look of it until I received a notification for your review. I've always liked the look of the P320 X5. This Legion version has even more eye candy. Sig's metal infused grip module wizardry is a great innovation to add weight, and keep costs down. By comparison, the Walther Q5 steel frame nearly doubles the cost (ouch!!) of the standard Q5 Match, which I currently own and really enjoy shooting. The price point of this Legion version though would place it in between the standard Walther Q5 Match and CZ Shadow 2. I love match pistols and this new X5 Legion might just earn its way into my growing collection before the Shadow 2.
Thank you Driver! I do agree about the look with X5. I think it’s a very visually appealing gun. The tungsten in the frame really is a great feature and you can see the difference immediately at the range. Good point about it landing between the standard Q5 and Shadow 2. That would make for an interesting comparison! Cheers brother!
@@KSGunGuy01 It also appears that H&K is throwing their hat into the mid-tier polymer based 9mm match pistol arena, (long description) with the HK VP9L. For now it appears to be only a separate barrel/slide combo for about $325. Add the $550 cost of the VP9 and you have an $875, 5" barreled match pistol. So many choices, wish I could buy them all.
I agree!
love my legion, No I can not find a bad thing to say about her. No issues shoots like a dream, the best gun you can buy for the money...two thumbs up
Held the X five today for the first time, My wife had to drag me out of the gun store....I’m still drooling lol
That thing felt awesome
Haha!! That's awesome James! They really are great guns indeed. I was oogling over the coyote version yesterday. Thankfully, I restrained. Thank you and cheers!
I have never been interested in a Sig before and have only handled a couple.....but had someone hand me one last week and now I can't stop thinking about it LOL
thank you for this link i'm going to get this gun soon
Gotta ask since I'm curious. (Edited since I found this question answered, it is cut for Romeo 1 Pro/DPP which is EXCELLENT to see, which means it'll take the Romeo 1T and Romeo 2 as well) I see a lot of people mentioning the weight is over for IDPA by half an ounce...but couldn't that be remedied by simply changing the magwell to a lighter one or removing the internal weight in the grip? Will you be a doing a revisit to the "If I could only have one" between the Shadow 2 and this one? Would be nice to see Shadow 2 vs X-5 Legion and PPQ Q5 SF Match against each other (without trigger mods).
Nice 🔥💯💪
A while back you did a review on the standard X5 vs the Shadow 2. You seemed to like both but preferred the shadow. How about this X5 Legion vs the shadow, does it beat the shadow or come close?
Had just bought this gun, I love it.
320 X5 rear sight is jacked up because Sig decided to put a taller than needed front sight on it. Even Dawson told me they suggested a shorter front to Sig , but they still kept it. some say the reason is that the romeo would co witness with the taller front sight
i have held the new legion. man what a brick. its as heavy as my 2011. also the 21 rd mags are not legal for uspsa 140mm as they were jsut slightly too long with the stock floor plates.
Makes sense for co-witnessing. Yes, it’s heavy and an amazing shooter! Thank you and cheers!
As always nice review video Sir 👍👌.Way too much information and freedom because it's Murcia 👏.
Thank you! Cheers Jimmy!
I’m thinking of this or then x carry for my next purchase. Hopefully next week 😎
Outstanding review, KSGG! I love the idea of the increased grip module weight. I wish there was a way to quantify the difference over polymer frame. The Full Size is such a sweet shooter, I can imagine the X-Five is incrementally better and it would be fun to see what the heavier tungsten one improves/changes.
Two pertinent points. One, I got an email from Sig just yesterday telling me they are now selling the tungsten grip separately.
Two, my X triggers arrived today and I got them in my three non-XCarry P320’s. They work as advertised and, in my case, even better. All three have had the safety recall done and the triggers worked in all three, including the 90° break. The added benefit for me was that they removed all traces of the tiny bit of squishiness I was feeling since the recall; they are practically as “tight” as my X Carry. The Apex triggers were a vast improvement, these are even better.
So now I have the X trigger in my Full Size. If I get the tungsten grip module I guess I’ll have an “almost X5”. My old Sub Compact is now virtually an X-Compact. It’s like Barbie dolls for men!
Thank you Jake! Yes, the heavier frame makes a huge difference in my opinion. It’s effortless to shoot. Congrats on the triggers! I’m glad you like them. Your full size will definitely be close to the X5 and you won’t want to shoot anything else, lol. Cheers brother!
Romeo 1 pro has rear sights add on just like delta pro which all so fits
Right on! Thank you and cheers!
Thanks for the review! Would barrel wear be a bad thing? Wondering if it would be indicative of a more precision fit....
A small amount of wear while the parts marry is normal. Look for odd gouges which is a sign of something out of spec. Thank you and cheers!
The Sig Sauer P320 X Five is better for duty / carry purposes, aside from the fact that it comes with four 21-round magazines. The Legion is made for target match competition / home defense. I am very happy with my X Five
Im confused there is only THIS x 5? What is the other?
@@rasmuspedersen3563 There was a P320 X Five model, replaced by the X Five Legion. The difference is the frame. The former is polymer, and the latter the frame is tungsten infused.
I love my legion.
Sold nearly all my glocks to switch to Sig for carry and competition. Now I am transitioning from the xfive legion to a STI Staccato XL for USPSA. My ONLY complaint on this xfive legion is the trigger reset. I find myself screwing up when in a hurry at competitions and not resetting it all the way so it holds me back a second to reset properly. If it had a shorter reset it would be the best gun hands down.
I wish you did the DH3 as well. I have the DH3 9mm and it's amazing. I bought the X-Carry Legion and not the X5 because I knew I was getting the DH3 so I have both. I would like to hear your thoughts between the two!
Nice
That's a great price point
I think this is to go after the Walther Q5 Match. And with the price difference, I think it’s a better option over the Walther.
Yes, I completely agree! Thank you and cheers!
I absolutley love my standard PPQ... Over 5,000 rounds through it and Zero malfunctions! but I think Walther kind of shot themselves in the foot by not making the Q5 match or SF Q5 match with a slightly longer grip and 21 round mags in order to properly compete with the Shadow or other proper race guns! Especially with the price of the SF version!
Put an Align Tactical gas pedal/takedown lever on this P 320 Legion and you will notice even better handling characteristics. I installed one on my HK VP9 and it help[ed me immensely.
