- This is a table top review and comparison of the new Glock 43X and the Sig Sauer P365. In this video, I will do a spec comparison of the two handguns including size dimensions, trigger pull weight and overall weight. If that all sounds interesting to you, please watch. Enjoy!

I have both. Love them both. I have the G43 also. With owning all 3 and shooting all 3, you can't go wrong with any choice. I lean towards the sig, however, just simply bc it fits in my pocket easier. These are simply amazing guns
Love my P365. Picked it up last March. Been my EDC since and over 2000 rounds and not a single issue.
Tony Bass Has it stood the test of time?
I appreciate the video. The time taken to allow us to compare and contrast two awesome firearms. Both great in their own ways. I’m subscribing! Keep up the great work sir!
Very good and detailed review when comparing the p365 and the 43x.
Thank you.
For those who don't know Sheild Arms makes a magazine for the G43X that holds 15 rounds and fits flush with no extension. The mag is called SA 15.
Unreliable
@@treefitty937 Thats not true. You don't own the 43x and you don't own the sa15.
They work well.
@Tree fitty I have at least 1500 rounds through two of them and I have had zero issues other than one FTF.
@@usedtruckemporiumusedtruck4166 people have had more problems than that
Half the people say that they are reliable and the other half say that they are unreliable, not a risk I’m willing to take on my concealed carry weapon especially considering how much of a hassle it is to buy them since they are never in stock unfortunately, I’m running stock until the reviews start coming out about the Palmetto 15 round, I’m really hoping they are reliable
I just purchased a Sig p365 and was looking for a good comparison review between these two. You nailed it for me.
Oh yes, and I did just hit that subscribe button.
Excellent comparison, I especially enjoyed the table-top style format.
Another great review! Great information! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for watching!
Excellent review! Thanks for stating just the facts when comparing the guns. I know we all have favorites, but there is a place and time for all things. Thanks again for the clear and concise comparison that was well articulated and the lack of BS lol.
He stated that the Sig is just slightly bigger which is a lie. Put the 12 round Sig mag in and the Glock is still bigger.
This channel is awesome. Great, topical, and informative videos. You don’t have to fast forward through two minutes of chatter and promotions, it’s just the facts.
The one thing I wish y’all did was live-fire impressions. Table top reviews are great for dimensions and comparisons, but it’s hard to know how you’ll like a gun until you shoot it. I’d love to see the straight-forward approach you use in a tabletop review in a live fire video.
Nice!! Very in depth. This is the best review I've seen between these two guns. Thank you. But I still can't decide which one. Lol 😂😂😂 I'll probably go with both.
Thanks for making this video!
Thanks for watching!
Awesome vid.... very informative... to the point.. i own the 365. Love it so far...but gotta say I like that glock also... thanks for posting
Good video and tabletop review. I just bought the P365 because for the most part I have to carry deep concealed. My EDC was a Ruger LCP2, for that reason. The P365 is really not much larger than the LCP2, but you get 10+1 vs. 6+1 in a similar sized package, PLUS it is 9mm Luger vs. .380 ACP. Big difference there. I have never really been that impressed by the Glock offerings, but I prefer real sights vs. plastic sights, and standard night sights is a definite plus in my opinion. I can't wait to get to the range to "break-in" the P365. I do like the trigger safety on the glock, but I think overall I will be very happy with my purchase. Oh yes, I also prefer the more aggressive grip texture on the P365. The Glock feels too smooth to me and would require a grip enhancement for me to be comfortable with it.
I love my g43x. My first gun purchase, so I wouldn’t really consider myself a “glock guy”. That being said, the 365 was my next choice. I tried them both out at the range and really liked the glock over the sig, due to; the grouping on the target, the feel of it in my hand, and for me, the trigger pull. I am by no means a gun expert, and I’m sure it was not the best assessment of a firearm, yet ultimately decided my purchase. When it come down to it, it’s really all about personal preference! So pick something YOU like shooting! Thanks for the great review
@Clay Pylant have you tried the p365 with a Wilson Combat frame
Awesome review!
I was a Mod2 series and CZ fan, yesterday I got to choose between P365 and the G43X-
P365: Mag release seems hard to engage and need to adjust thumb(for a very small gun)
Glock43X: much more flush and has a good purchase on the grip.
No brainer. I picked the Glock43X, you pay $100 less so you have that option to upgrade the sights with your savings. The Glock just feels better and I’m not a fan of other glocks.
I have a P365 with 2 12 round extended mags and love it. Accurate and cycles very well plus has amazing sights.
Ditto. Carry a 12 in the 365 most of the time with two 15's in a pocket.
Excellent presentation! Thanks!
Nice comparison video. Thx. I'm still happy with my G26 Gen5 with Magpul 12 rds mags.
Bought the p365 right after Christmas. Wanted to wait for all the bugs to get fixed. Hickok45 bought 2 for Christmas so I guess it was safe. Within a week or so I find out about the 43x. I panicked. But now I see the specs. I want to carry with the smallest pistol with most amount of rounds without changing the configuration from the manufacturer. Grip length is identical to my g19. So if I wanted to carry the 43x I would just carry the g19 and have 5 extra rounds. People will say yeah but you get better control with the longer grip. Fine. I bought the p365 12 round mag. It seems to be no longer than the g43x and I have 2 extra rounds. And I have to tell you, that trigger on the p365 is pretty spot on coming straight from the factory. Better than the glocks factory trigger in my opinion of course. So I am actually saving money with p365. I dont have to get a trigger job and I dont have to get nite sights for the p365. So actually the p365 is less expensive to own. To me the g43x and g48 falls in the area that I am not interested in. I really dont see any reason to own the 43x or g48 unless you live in an ammo restricted area. Great video by the way. You did good.
That is a fair assessment - thanks for sharing and for watching!
Agreed !! but is hard to get an honest review when a glock fan boy is reviewing a glock!!
Fair assessment, but I have to say that you don't have to do any trigger mods to a Glock if don't want to... IMHO, it's not necessary and especially not on Gen 5 iterations. G43X can be had with 2 different night sights available from the factory. I prefer to EDC a flush-fitting magazine, so the P365 12-rounder would be utilized off my body for backup... 12-rounder has a slight little play when inserted into the P365, but it is very well done. I think I could add the G43X into a carry rotation... G43X : late-Fall/Winter/early-Spring... P365: late-Spring/Summer/early-Fall...
@@GrayGhostDog1 I agree with your opinion for the trigger job on the Glock. But some still say hey it needs to be lighted up a bit. With normal range time a few dry fires the trigger does smooth out and does lighted up a tad bit. But those polymer sights I have to change out. And that is easily another 70 bucks added to the glock. I get mine installed at Glock Inc here in Smyrna Ga. They will add it on and fire two rounds to make sure the sights are aligned and they will do a once over on pistol. They are only 30m from me. My gen5 g19 and g26 had the nite sights installed and Glock went ahead and replaced both slide lock springs or something right then and there. Evidently they were having some kind of issues with the Gen5 slide lock or spring.
My p365 when I do decide to CCW it I will carry with the flat base plate and will have the 12 round mag handy. Center console and such. Maybe in my pocket I just dont know yet. But with the 12 round mag it is still shorter in length grip then the 43x with the 10 round mags. By quarter inch.
Jay T. OMG that play in the 12 rounder! I am so glad you mentioned that. I have 3 12 round mags and all three has that play. It functions fine but that play....I will insert the mag and grip the pistol and the first thing I feel is that stupid play. Hopefully I'll get used to it...HaHa!
I purchased my Sig p365 in late December for $500. I have over 2k rounds through it. Not one problem. You get so much more for your money with the Sig. The sights are better, the capacity is better for it's size, the grips are better and you get a rail. Sorry. But the 365 is just a better weapon and deal. I use the Mantis System at home. That rail comes in handy.
My wife didn't get why I wanted the p365. Until I purchased it then held my EDC next to the p365 and turned off the lights. The 365 sights were the only sights you could see. Not to mention it's much more comfortable to carry. IMO the 365 is the best EDC.
That didn't help, now I just want both. LOL Thanks for some great content
I have shoot the the Glock 43x today and it has a smooth shot and delivery. Can wait to test the sig
Excellent review
Nice video, we have both. My fiance uses the Sig P365 & I use the G43x (Black). Both pistols are awesome. Can't go wrong with either purchase.
Outstanding review
I own a G-43X and LOVE IT. Great feel and shootability. Its a GREAT CCW as well for IWB carry. With the newer SHIELD ARMS magazine for the 43X, I now can carry FIFTEEN ( 15 ) rounds in a flush mount mag. THAT is a GAME CHANGER. Shield is making these 15 rd mags as fast as they can and still can't keep up with demand. They also make a 20 round mag ( 5 round extension ) for the 43X as well Perfect for your spare. I have BOTH a Lasermax Internal Guide Rod Green Laser on it AND a Holosun 507K red dot optic ( Hey TWO IS BETTER THAN ONE !!! ). So I have night sights, laser sights, and red dot all on a 15 rd flush mount, VERY concealable 9mm pistol with GLOCK RELIABILITY. NICE !!! but But BUT I can't hide that pistol in my pocket and certainly, some situations dictate just that. a Pocket Pistol. For that purpose I've been using a Ruger LCP II with a Lasermax Green trigger guard laser with Grip Sense. Purrrrrfect little mouse gun in .380 caliber. VERY lethal with 7 rounds and shoot from the hip capability. I rate that pistol, that setup, as PERFECT in that caliber, size, shootability. Its a bit snappy but NOT bad at all and with a bit of range practice, VERY controllable, especially keeping in mind its going to be fired from less that 10 yards away and with the laser, its a tack driver. but But BUT, I've given up 9mm stopping power and 15 round capacity all for SIZE. Not anymore. The Sig P-365 is a true pocket gun !!! Its also a great IWB or OWB micro-compact pistol. The new SIG Tac-Pac comes thru with THREE 12 round mags which fill my large hands just perfectly and SIG sells a 15 round extended mag for a spare mag. The P-365 also comes thru with a rail which will accept a picatinny slide-over ( Recover Tactical on Amazon ) and that allows for lasers, lights, coffee maker, toaster oven, and laser light combos. So now I own both pistols and although very similar, the P-365's smaller size and "pocketability" makes a welcome addition to the herd. It's a GAME CHANGER for CERTAIN. Side Note >>> ALL the original firing pin bugs have been fully worked out. Changed the composition of the metals, made then less brittle, problem resolved.
Awesome..upgrade the recoil spring on the lcp max
Trigger reset seems to be better on the glock. That's more important to me than size. Thanks for the review.
I’m a Sig guy and I just went through this choice this past week. Believe it or not, I bought the Glock. Reason for me was that the Sig was just a little too small and the ergonomics of the Glock just felt better. Sig needs another option in sub compact that is between the small conceal and the compact.
P365X Macro
Exact review I'd been looking for! Thank you sir I'll be dropping a like and you've won yourself a new sub!
I'm a Human Factors wonk ( User Experience). This CZcams review is AWESOME Merciful! Of course you left out several key comparison factors but the ones you covered were done perfectly. I'm getting the P365 rather than the G43X and hey....anyone one want my MINT G27 Gen4?
I own the p365 and I love it. I really do think the 43x is a great gun and I'm probably going to buy one just to have. But for anyone who's on the fence between picking one verse the other and making their decision on the reviews that pertain to the grip, keep in mind, the p365 and p365XL (longer grip and slide model) are interchangeable. I always felt the standard p365 handle was too short but I ordered the XL lower and swapped it out, it made a massive difference in length which can help people avoid purchasing pinky extensions for their mags. In my opinion the p365 with the XL lower puts it above the glock 43X overall. I think the p365 is more comfortable to holster and better fit for concealment. The trigger on p365 out of the box is far superior. However, I do think the mag release on the glocks are quicker and smoother than the sigs.
I’ve owned and carried the P365 for a year and I’m just curious about Glocks. I’ve got 5 Sigs and a few 1911s, but thinking I might just have to try a Glock. Like what the hell. I need to see what all the fuss is about. Thank you Chris, another excellent video. I’m subscribed to this channel and your other, new one.
I think Glock's rigid adherence to their tradition of polymer cladding their magazines is hurting them in this case.
It worked fine in the case of a 9mm or 40 service pistol, but if you're aiming for concealability, an all steel magazine can be more space efficient.
Glocks way is better. No rust, no failures, etc.
Shield arms makes a 15 round mag for the g43x. it is metal and fits flush
Just won a P365 last weekend at a skeet shoot. Still haven’t got to shoot it. Doing tons of research. I got a little nervous about issues. Now I’m pretty confident in shooting this firearm.
Very cool! This guy has done all my firearm transfers. Safest well to sell a firearm 3rd party
Great price too!

Just got my sig p365 with a born on date of June of 2019. I have not had time to shoot it but she sure is sexy! I've been carrying a shield, lc9, and an xds mod2 in .45. All I can say I cant wait to get a holster so I can start carrying it.👍🏾
Shield S15 15 round flush mags are out for the G43X. Also have an extension for +5 rounds
You also need to buy a stronger mag release to use with those 15 round mags, dont you?
@Donald Trump's Geissele URGI gas block
No.
They are flawless.
I've run a couple hundred rounds through the 15 round flush mags.
And a couple hundred through the 20 round mags.
Not a single problem.
It's a GAME CHANGER.
NOTHING on the market today has such capacity with such little imprint.
Glock 43x.
Great video
Thanks!
I have both and also the G43. I like them all! G43X feels so good in the hand!
Guys.
The glock 43x now has a 15round flush mag.
And a 20 round extended mag.
Game over.
its not game over. You can get magguts for the p365. 12 rds in the 10 rd pinky grip and 14 rds in 12rd extended.
@@colossalbreacker
It is a GAME CHANGER AND GAME OVER, low IQ boy.
Sure the sig p 365 has 12 and 15 round mags. I've got one.
BUT, the glock 43x has 15 round and 20 round mags.
Do the math low IQ boy.
@Jake Stockton LMFAO
You just displayed your low IQ again.
If you're in a situation where you have a 6 shooter and the bad guy has 15 and 20 rounds?
Figure it out low IQ boy.
@Jake Stockton
Are you really that poorly educated?
Nobody needs a glock 43x with 15 and 20 rounds?
Have you always been that poorly educated?
You want to have a six shooter against a bad guy with 15 and 20 rounds?
What's your major malfunction boy?
@Jake Stockton Is that a serious comment ? LMFAO
Love my 43x solid gun for sure
Primer drag is common on many small sriker fired guns. I put the stainless steel striker in mine.
Hey Chris, I'm interested in the Walther CCP M2 and they're soft coil piston system. If you get those in stock would you consider a review? Thanks very much.
I got my wife the 365. She loves it. I have the Glock 26. It conceals great. I was hoping the 43 x would be closer to the sig in size. I'll just stick with my 26.
I own both of these pistols, and until yesterday was a long time G43 owner as well. I like them both and think they each fill a different niche. I think for IWB carry, it’s a toss up but I give the nod to the Glock because the full grip allows for an easier draw. I don’t really think the extra grip length is much of a factor for me, but time will tell , I may change my mind after having more carry time with each. I think where the Sig advantage will really shine will be for pocket carry. I prefer IWB, but did successfully pocket carry the G43 quite a bit. I will now use the 365 for that role when needed. I admit I am unapologetically a Glock “fan boy”, but I have no problem trying other platforms as well, and this Sig May indeed be a winner, if it continues to be reliable and doesn’t break.
Interesting review. I best keep my g43 with a hyve+1 mag extension for edc. I like the balanced weight, concealment and grip comfort better than the 365 or 43x.
As for ammo count, if 7+1 rounds is not enough practice more gun control, i.e. target acquisition, accuracy, and shooter discipline. After all 2 more rounds is not needed if the first round counts.
Keep practicing & Happy Shooting...friends

I wanted to be a Glock Guy, so I purchased the 48 which came with Ameriglo night sights stock. Loved the look and the grip when holding it. Loved the simplicity and reliable pedigree. However, at the range I wasn’t fond of the squishy Glock trigger and control felt just “okay”. For concealment it was a little uncomfortable in my opinion, being six feet, 200 lbs. So I felt there was something else that could quench my thirst. I looked into the very well know P365 and the majority of the reviews seemed to favor the micro compact Sig. Went back to the range today and shot the 48 again, it felt better but wasn’t greasing my pole the way I wanted. Went outside to the case a couple times to feel the P365 and finally bought it. Instantly I started grouping tighter and control was just what I wanted. All in a smaller package and for less $$$. I wanted to be a Glock Guy, I really did. Maybe I didn’t give the 48 the chance it deserved but my vote goes with the Sig 365 hands down. Smaller package, better trigger, better stock sights, better grip, better price. Change my mind.
...thank you ....I think you helped me to make my mind up ...like you , I wanted to be a Glock guy...as I own a 19 Gen 3 ...but the Sig felt great in my hand...cheers
Sigs feel great. I just do not trust them with my life with all the issues they are known for having.
@@jonboy9734 Issues should be good with the 365 now , I purchased the first generation 40 cal glock and it had extractor issues and wouldn't cycle anything which glock fixed also, so just make sure and buy the next gen of whatever one you choose, when the issues have been solved, they are both excellent choices
Excellent video on the Glock 43x and the Sig p365 I say to try both of them out they're both good guns I know Sig made some changes the new ones out opposed to be excellent so is the new Glock the 43x has the same magazines as the Glock 48 so you have 10 shots it's just the barrels and then shorter but that's up to you 💯👍
Great video. New subscriber
I love glock but I swapped my 43 for a p365 and love it ❤️
Match grade enhanced polygonal barrel profile but still the plastic guide rod on 43X needed to be mentioned for a rounded review.
I think the p365 is in a different category compared to the 43x. The p365 is more of a micro compact that can hold 10+1, 9mm which is impressive.
The 43x is more in the same category as the Shield, Walther PPS, Springfield XDS, and Glock 26. Which this market has been done 10 years ago.
You can't compare the p365 and 43x just because it holds 10+1. I don't know why people keep posting these videos comparing the two. They're not the same.
Agreed
People compare them because of the time frame of when they came out probably
@@jakemartin828 yes, I know the glock 26 is a true double stack and the 43x is a single stack. If you want to get technical, the p365 is a one and a half stack. That is how they fit 10 in that small mag, the same size mag as the 43, which you said the 43 is a "single stack". Are there any other guns out there that is in the same class as the p365 at the moment then or is this the first of it's kind? I don't know, that is why I asked. Thanks
Ranger Gun the 365 is really in a league of its own...for the size and the round count. It’s really unbeatable.. I own one and love it...but I have to be honest. I like that glock also...I will probably own that one soon. Hehe.
The Kel-Tec p11 is pretty much the same size and round capacity as the P365 and has been on the market since 1995. I own both a p11 (since 1999) and a p365 (for about a month). They aren't in the same class but for someone on a budget the p11 is no slouch.
Everyone seems to have forgotten the ruger sr9c. They fit 10 rounds on a small grip way before sig 🤷🏻♂️
I am a Glock fan now... because I was a Sig fan first.
I owned a P229R that I bought in 2006, and within the first 2 years, the extractor broke. People chalked it up to Sig having metallurgy issues at the time, but I stopped carrying it and switched to a Springfield XD-M.
Then I bought a Sig 556xi, which is a gas piston variant of the AR platform. It worked alright, but was not very reliable, and in the time that I owned it (years), they never released the promised caliber conversion kits for it.
Then the P320 came along, and I thought, finally, that Sig had brought out a decent striker-fired designed. It turned out to not be drop safe, and Sig knew about it all along, because they repaired the issue in M17 before shipping to the military. Even when confronted on the issue, Sig says that it is not the fault of their trigger design, and they offer a "free, voluntary trigger upgrade" to avoid admitting that they needed to recall the gun. A major police department in my area forced all of the officers who carried the P320 to get the voluntary upgrade, including having Sig themselves come and do the updates on site.
Of course, next comes the P365, which had a documented history of sheering of the tip of its own striker due to another faulty design.
Why anyone who give their money to a crappy corporation that is more concerned with giving out unreliable guns in a cash grab than producing a quality product is beyond me.
All I know is this: in all the time that i have carried and used firearms professionally, no one I have come across has ever had to retire a Glock due to a reliability issue. You are free to buy and carry whatever gun you want, but if my life depends on it, it's going to be a Glock.
bravo.
@@Bob_Lee great rebuttal you got there.
@Robert Simpson Was on the fence between both and was applauding you for the comparison.
@@Bob_Lee ah, I thought it was was a sneer at my experience with Sigs. My apologies. I hope my experience is helpful to you.
15 round flush mag for the 43x coming soon
Yeah that mag makes the 43x win for sure
@@stanleyhowe4320 But the 43x is more like the size of the P365 XL with its 12 round flush and 15 round extended.
@@etherealceleste the new 15 round mag for the 43x is flush
43x with 15 rounds, game changer.
My new Sig P365 SAS takes the15 round mag. I carry the 12 +1 round with the 15 round mag for backup.
Fun fact: I bought the G43 frame only. I already have the G43X. Swap the G43X slide and you now have 2 Glocks for short money. Too bad you have to buy new mags but pretty cool modularity. I carry the G43 in the summer but the G43X is easy to conceal. The P365 is impressive but for me it's too small and I just don't like SIGs anymore, personal preference. Thanks for the review
Excelent video
The Sig P365 amazes me with its size and capacity. It's like watching a clown car at a circus. I don't know how they managed to do it.
Pixie Dust.
They make 15rd flush mags for the 43x
I handled G43x in the store; Glock used G42 stippling making it really slick
Did I miss a width comparison?
Thanks for content .
Which is more reliable ?
Started with G17.4, moved quickly to the G19.4, then to G26.4 lol and G43/Shield (pocket) now the P365 ( June 2019 build ) ! Both, G43 and p365 bite my trigger finger after about 200 rds, but the Sig is really..really amazing for deep concealment! ( 6’ & 195 lbs ) The G43x is neither here nor there.
That's a sick hoodie
Can you do a video on the most lightweight 9mms?
Have arthritic hands,Which one would have a lighter slide? Excellent video
I already have and love my G43 original for EDC, I don't want anything bigger and heavier. I wanted a smaller pocket carry P983 but my friend got it for Xmas and already back to sig for trigger broke or jammed (less than 800 rounds). I want a pocket carry with safety because friend's Navy father shot his leg through pocket. Maybe in 6 months or so the P983 will have things fix.
This is a not brainer! Sig all the way 😁👍
I don't find the full length slide rails to be more durable. That's just more surface area to create friction, collect dirt and cause malfunctions. Great video. Probably the best one yet on the 43x.
Better hurry and notify all those 1911 shooters. They are going to want to know about all the problems all that slide to rail contact is susceptible to. Way to go, John Browning.. you've been doing it wrong for over 100 years. Lol
I have a Glock 20 gen4 for woods carry that I adore. Looking for concealed carry weapon and did my research and I am going with the Sig p365 mainly because of size
After many classes on “after the permit” many folks have problems getting a good firing grip on some sub compacts from the draw... I personally want a grip I can get a firing grip on off the bat.....
I feel the same and the way I fixed that is to always use the +1 base plate on the G43 and the +2 on the G26. Some other guns only provide the extra bit of grip and tail to the grip without the extra round, but they all make drawing your weapon twice as easy. I keep the flat base plate in my pocket for back up.
Really awesome side by side. You are prepared and to the point. You don't depend on guesswork and show results of your findings in the video. Brilliant why does this not have more likes?
Very cool. Westfield indiana resident here.
How would you compare today’s P365 with the Sparks Bros module grip? Small gun with a compact feel.
Please do ruger lcp 2 vs Desert eagle video next!
Boy Howdie!!! Apples to apples
love my 365 can't complain about it for the size, it's accurate as fu## I have 1,000 rounds through it so far, no problem, get whatever you feel more comfortable with..
I’m in portage Indiana do you have the both new glocks in stock for sale?
I’m just wondering why you switch hands when showing the reset? Wouldn’t it be more efficient to rack the slide without switching hands? No disrespect just curious.
I own a P365 and a Glock 43X. It's a coin toss for me for EDC. I'm comfortable and confident with either.
A review from a glock fan boy. The P365 is amazing.
Those dimensional differences seem small on paper, but when you conceal carry them you really feel the difference. It's called a 365 for a reason, you can and will carry it because it's so easy you hardly notice it.
Glock should have came out with a 24-7 and redesign their magazine to compete with Sig they drop the ball once again.
I actually thought that Glock would come out with the same type of staggered magazine... but they didn't. I'll stick with my glock 42 with the extended magazine that gives me 8 + 1
@@gemboy4307ful apparently getting 10 rounds in a magazine that small is harder than it seems. I believe sig patented their design. Hopefully other gun makers can do something similar, competition is a good thing. I've owned most of the little guns and really love the p365.
The only problem with sigs magic mag is it costs 40-50$ per mag, that's a huge problem for me, and easily makes up for the cost difference between the glock and the sig for me. I'd love to own a 365, but I'd probably carry a 43x more often, I love a full grip
@@hylianknight3 I paid $46.89 for an extra 12 Rd mag. It certainly hurt a bit, considering a Glock 33 Rd mag is less. But, it's a metal mag that gives you 12+1 in a pocket pistol, nothing else does that. The grip feels fantastic and comfortable. That's why commotion is good, if someone else pulls is off then prices should fall
Great review. I went with the sig as I am only 5-8" and 115 lbs. I ptint easy. I did add the Wilson Combat grame, which helps a bit with the small grip. I do not know why-I shoot better with smaller guns-like the Glock 26 & Sig P365 than the Glock 19, you more compact guns?
I really wanted to put the 365 in my rotation but I just couldn’t in hopes (all) the flaws were worked out!
Great video guys. I'm also from indiana, currently living in connecticut. Next time I'm back home I'll swing by and check you guys out
I’m shocked you didn’t comment on the rail attachment option that the 365 has vs the glock as a tabletop comparison 🤔
I'd say you can't lose with either one of these guns. I plan to buy the 43X. Hopefully very soon.
I have both. What a country!
Excellent excellent review. Nice job.
Now that it's over 1 yr since you made this comparison, have you revisited each gun to see if you still have the same opinion? I am leaning towards the Sig P365 (or possibly P365XL) because of how it feels in my hand and the larger capacity mags. At this point I have not had the opportunity to shoot any of the models I'm looking at and can only go on how they fit/feel in my hand.
I've watched SO MANY video reviews of various guns, and the more current reviews are giving very high marks to the Sig P365 and seem to be saying the original issues are no longer valid. What are your feelings regarding the current status of the P365 and whether or not Sig has fixed the reliability issues from a few years ago?
The guns I'm currently considering are:
Sig Sauer P365
Sig Sauer P365XL
Smith & Wesson M&P Shield 2.0
Glock 43
Glock 43X
Taurus G2C
Taurus G3C
I grew up w/ a cop for a father, so I have always felt very comfortable around guns, and never had any issues w/ shooting guns that had a lot of kick, so I don't think recoil will be a huge deciding factor. However, I have not shot anything for probably 25-30yrs. Looking for something very easily concealed, comfortable for a fatter guy to hide/carry (a point few reviewers seem to cover), and something that I can have some fun occasionally range shooting but competent/reliable if I ever find myself in the unfortunate circumstance of needing to protect myself. Your tho'ts/suggestions??
You can use the XL grip with the regular 365 slide assembly. Easier to conceal than the XL, but will fit bigger hands.
I thought the p365 had the ability to get attached flashlight ect. Does the glock have that too on that model?
A review of very good quality....thx
I am a glock fan, I have several. The 23, 43, 17, and the 21. That being said, the 365 is just better than the 43 in every way. The 43x is just a longer grip and with that length I would just carry my 23 and have more rounds and a larger caliber. The sig is hands down my favorite conceal carry
Then insert Shield Arms S15 magazine! Pushes the 43X to the top with 15Rounds flush mounted!!!
Jacob Ceparano I suppose you could if you wanted to buy another magazine after the purchase of the gun. My 365 though has a capacity of 13 in a MUCH smaller footprint. It’s a trade off but if your goal is concealment then the 365 is still ahead.
The sights make the price a wash easy.
great review
I’m sorry if you mentioned it but I just didn’t noticed. How many safeties does each weapon have overall? I’m on the cusp of deciding what to carry between these two, and this is kinda my final decision maker. Thanks for the informative video!
Late reply, but for others: Most of the safety mechanisms, in both guns, are internal. But the Glock has one additional safety, which is a lever built into the trigger (you can see it depresses when you put a finger on the trigger). There's no manual safety switch on either gun.
@@smileychess Thank you for your response.
I just got the Glock 43x. Loving it so far. Nothing to exciting to get excited about. But it’s a Glock. I got it as a trade in for my OG Smith and Wesson M&P Shield and a Gen 1 Diamondback DB9 and paid $130. I feel I got a great deal since my trades were pretty dated and had been carrying for 12 and 15 plus years respectively. Great video. Do you carry either of these now days?
I’m a Glock guy for many years now. Never had a sig of any model. Bought the 365, and love it. Much more compact and the same amount of rounds. The 26 is in time out. Lol.
Great video, and I appreciate the comparisons. I won’t be buying the 43x.
But if Glock made one to the same dimensions, I would buy it tomorrow. 😀
Thanks
You forgot to mention that although the Sig is a bit more expensive it comes with steel night sights and not the cheap plastic sights that come on the Glock. That's about $100- right there.
