You did a great job covering the comparison of these pistols and I especially liked that you included the P320 X-Carry as well. Would have loved to seen how the macro printed for you instead of seeing you shoot the pistol.
Thank you for taking the 17 round mag from the Macro and showing us that it will fit and work in the original 365. I know I'm not the only one wondering if that will work or not.
Super helpful, I had my reservations while waiting for the 7 day hold to expire (thanks MD!). This resolved a lot of my concerns after having sold my 365 years ago because of the snappiness and the grip issue. Thanks for validating that I made the right choice going with this EDC.
I have just found your channel and this is the first video i have watched. I was on the fence about getting the Macro but you have cleared that up for me. You did a great job describing the differences. Im going to trade my 365X and get the Macro. Wonderful job. I'm now a subscriber.
thanks for this video! Just sold my p320 compact to get this x macro comp yesterday and your video really helped me understand the difference in p365 flavors.
No hablo español pero he disfrutado tanto tu video, aun con subtítulos, por todo el detalle brindado, explicaciones y videos. Te felicito. Tienes un suscriptor más. Sañudos desde Perú 🇵🇪
Great review! Picked one up last week and have shot it twice - 200 total rounds. Not sure if it's worth needing over XL for the price but my grouping was a little tighter with faster shots. I don't have really big hands but the included Large back strap really gives it the feel of a full size with a compact body and allows me to fully grip with both hands. It's also noticeably louder but very controllable. I like it.
Really enjoyed and appreciated this review. You helped me with my purchase decision, after being able to compare the pros and cons. You also earned a new subscriber.
Great review man, pretty sure this is the first video of yours I've seen. I just picked up the macro a few weeks ago and I absolutely love it for many of the reasons you stated.
I got in touch with Wilson Combat about a potential grip module for the Macro, they said it's in the mix. I run their grip with my XL now and like it much better. I haven't shot the macro yet but thanks for reminding me I can save the money and wait for the grip to come out, and add the mag
Excellent video - I learned a lot. I'm still looking around for my 1st carry gun but I'm almost there to pick up the SIG P365X Macro especially after your video.
Thanks you never missed a beat on comparison ,very in depth so the buyer has a better idea on what's here for them. I did enjoy this one. Great Tutorial here....
Excellent video! Just picked up a macro 2 weeks ago to replace my TP9 EliteSC for my EDC. Was nervous I should have went with the mete MC9 but the Sig is just amazing, easier to carry and shoots a treat.
You have addressed every issue that I considered and the reasons I didn't buy the hole line up, until the Macro came out, they got it right with this one ! For me the full grip was the need for my meat hooks , I never liked the idea of loosing the the ability to eject the mag without opening my hand up . The Macro is perfect length. The G43X S/15s have been the solution, long enough grip, enough rds , slim enough, 100% reliable, not one issue ! The Macro would be the next step up a little bigger, but smaller than the G45 . The perfect in-between. Great video
I've carried the XL pretty much since its release. Upgraded enough components to be within an FCU and recoil spring of a 2nd XL. So of course that was a obstacle I overcame. Then, already having two XLs and seeing the X-Macro drop... I'm now three deep in the 365 'platform'. At first I played mix 'n match with all three pistols swapping uppers, lowers, barrels and slides. It's all interchangeable except you can't fit a longer barrel into the Macro slide. Probably because there's a tighter fit between the barrel and slide on the Macro - likely done to keep hot gasses from backing up into the dust cover and FCU. An LX slide and threaded barrel fits nicely on the Macro lower. I was about to get a 320 compact when the X-Macro dropped. At this point I'm happy I didn’t. Good video.
I'm in the same situation. I was just about to purchase a second p320, but got the Macro. I'm loving it so far. Plus I can make it smaller in the grip. I think I'm going to snag a wilson combat lower reg size and a smaller upper just so I can have a pocket option as well. Loving the Sig striker platforms so far.
@JPK What are your thoughts on the Macro now that you’ve had it a month? I’ve been shooting/carrying/collecting for the last 20 years and still to this day my 365XL is my absolute favorite carry gun. Love the trigger, insanely accurate, love shooting it. If you had to only pick one between the XL and the Macro which one would it be? I’m between picking up a Macro or grabbing an Icarus grip module for my XL.
@@BagsEsquire I would strongly recommend the 'XM' unless you're concerned about comcealing the XM's slightly longer grip. I find I'm still swapping the uppers with my XL not only because of the variety but due to holster issues. When I first received the XM I needed a holster fast and since I didn’t have an optic on it at the time I ordered basic holsters with 'no optic cut' to speed the process. Since then I've added a 507K with a green reticle. So I have a couple holsters that are 'no optics' and because of the forward positioning of the cut, causes any optic to catch on the holster. My Blackpoint Tactical arrived yesterday and it was worth the wait. Probly the best OWB holster for any 365 I've seen, Rides high and is canted and it holds the gun more tightly against one's side than any other I've tried. So with an untucked button front cover shirt shirt it allows concealment usually not found in an OWB... but... it was ordered without an optic cut and without surgery with a dremel tool that's a no-go. So Im currently carrying the XM lower with an XL Spectre (distressed) slide witch is my favorite config out of all the variations so. Thursday my now 2nd favorite OWB - Tulster's Countour holster arrives as that's finally available for the XM and it shipped fast - even the black multicam. Ordered it Sunday and it's arriving Thursday. I alread have one for the XL's and it's outstanding. So holster drama aside the XM is worth it. The Icarus grip modules are nice and have a pic rail. Early reports said they scratched too easily so hopefully that's been addressed.
Great review!!! Subbed. I wanted to love the p365 series but they always felt small in my hands so I went xcompact spectre. Hadn't seen a macro yet to be able to handle it in store but looking forward to it
Mann this was one of the best videos I have ever seen on a gun period, I did the same thing you did , I waited , cause I had a 43x with shield arm mags and wanted a upgrade and when this came out I purchased one !! 😂
Enjoyed your review “subscribed and liked” would love to see you put the XL slide on the Macro grip and compare to see if the recoil is function of the larger grip or porting. I like my XL longer barrel and would like to just upgrade the grip mod if there is little difference. Look forward to more reviews and content.
The porting absolutely makes a difference. I put the macros barrel and slide on a 365xl Wilson combat grip module and it’s great. I sold the macros grip because it was too big for easy concealment in my opinion and I don’t have really big hands.
Nice review. Note that you prefer the trigger in your XL to the trigger in your new Macro - the VERY SIMPLE option is to switch the xl trigger into your macro. I have the original p365 with two different frames one with a picatinny rail addition and one with a Romeo green laser = I can switch frames using the trigger in either in about 30 secs to 1 minute. With the picatinny rail addition I use a light/laser. Additionally I sent my gun back to Sig and had them install the xl straight trigger. With a 12 round mag either frame will be the same length as the xl or x model. Also, with a Magguts addition, my 20 round magazines become short 12-round.magazines and my 12-round magazine becomes a 14-round mag providing me with 13 or 15 rounds loaded with one in the chamber. Additionally, I pocket carry with either the 10 or 12 round mags depending on the pocket sizes. I feel I have just about the perfect gun for my needs. Will consider adding a macro slide if Sig ever lowers the price for the slide only ( they quoted me a price of $525 for the macro slide itself, which I feel is way too much as the price quoted for an xl slide was approximately $225). At this time, I’ll stick with what I have and love it. Try exchanging your trigger module to get the one you want without having to buy another trigger module - it takes removing the slide and barrel and pushing one pin out to remove the entire trigger assembly from one to the other. Good luck.
Thank you for sharing, I have the same issue with my first 365 and thinking to upgrade to XL now I will check out the new micro...save time thanks for sharing your amazing talents
Agree, really made sense. I've watched a lot of Sig reviews and this has been the best so far. Hope he does more comparisons of the same brands like this one. Also some where he shoots them all.
What a great comparison video. Thanks so much! I have a p365 (original), it's ok, removed the manual safety. Really like the XL version, but ran into the same fitment issues you mentioned. Love a couple of high dollar Agency Arms Builds on a G19 and G34, BUT ... last week I compared the X Macro to the XL and I may just have to get one of those.
Some time ago I upgraded the two XLs to Wilson Combat's grip modules with the tungsten weight kits. The appeal of those is they're slightly larger than the factory grip modules making bigger hands happier. Those and the Macro with the large backstrap feel very similar in -hand.
Had the original 365 and XL. Personally, prefer the 365 slide with the XL frame (the X before the X came out), and looking to get the 17rd mag from the macro. Great video!
@@dg8676 If you want iron sight options a OG 365 with a swapped out XL grip is a good bet, but won't have the optic cut if you want to go that route (will cost extra to get milled). OTOH, the 365X comes as optic sight ready, but has fewer iron sight options.
Great job! Thanks for mentioning that the grip will NOT fit current holsters. For me, I don't have a problem with the XL grip, so I'm more interested in the slide. I was torn between porting my XL and getting the Macro upper. Looks like I'll be considering a comp...
Hey just got my macro. It's only about 800 so it's less than the spectre by a wide margin. It's comparable with the p365 xl grip with 12 rds. So for me that's why I got it. Buying the macro and a xl grip is cheaper than the spectre. Plus I don't link the gold.
Nice review, and great comparison! I'll make it short - I wish Sig would have made a basic 15 round version for those of us in restricted States like Colorado. A P365 slide length with no porting and a standard pic rail. If Sig used whatever magic to create a 17 round magazine in something that has a barely longer grip height than the P365XL, and then applied it to a 15 round grip - that would be incredible. If they split the grip height between the macro and the XL, it would be perfect for me. However, makes me wonder about the 15 round magazines for the original P365... Anyway, for now I'm still happy with my original P365. I swap between the 10 round mags for summer carry, and the 12 round mags for winter carry when I can cover the extra grip height easier with heavier clothes.
You can still buy the the x macro in Colorado. Who gives a shit about the 15 round rule, gun stores in my area simply don’t care and sell “high” capacity mags anyways
My ‘pinky’ issues are with baby Glocks with extended mag base plates, both with the +1 and plain finger extensions. My pinky fell right into the gap between the sharp edge of the base and the grip frame. Glock 27s we’re the worst. I always went home with a blood blister on my pinky unless I curled it under the mag, like I do with the flat plates. Not so much of a problem with G43s. I recently fired a 365X, and handled a new Macro. I’m debating on whether to get the Macro and a standard 365 grip frame and mags for those occasions where concealment and capacity are both equally important, or a 365X, or a Macro and an original 365. I currently have a couple of G43xs and a 43, but the 365 trigger, even stock, is miles ahead.
i just got my macro and a holosun with the same light you have, just got my holster, the gun feels good in hand and holds 17 rounds very exciting, would u reccomend a different firing unit or keeping it stock?
Get the mcarbo short stroke flat trigger for your 365s,i got that and a Icarus grip for my 365 and it made a huge difference. Also added a bigger tail on it and regular rail.
I Actually went over to Tombstone Tactical here in my local area at Phx Metro center today to look for a Beretta A300 and during my time there I was shown this SIG Macro… 🤔Wow, what a nice system sig has provided. I may pick it up down the road as it was very nice in ergonomics, capacity and with sight options. - Glockman
What holster is he using in this video? I'm trying to find a good appendix carry holster for my xmacro but having difficulty finding the right one that is comfortable and fits well.
Magguts makes a magazine kit that will solve that grip length problem for you. Their 14 round kit not only increases capacity but also extends the length just slightly. That and the Wilson Combat grip frame have solved all my hand fit issues with the 365 family. Also Zev makes a magazine button that help with that too.
Just purchased the P365 Macro. It is the bomb! I carried the 1st Gen M&P Shield with the mag extension. I always carry an extra mag as well. My capacity went from 17 rounds total to 35 rounds. With the Holosun 407K X2 red dot. It completes my needs for a high capacity, easily concealed 9 mm. Great video and if you missed any points, I don't know what they were.
I’ve got the P365 which I converted to a P365X with optic. Also have the P365XL w/ optic. At smaller dude and those carry easier on warm weather w T-shirts and shorts. Got Xmacro for colder weather season. At a bit worried about printing and not many holsters out yet.
I went with the ‘poor man’s Specter: 365XL, Magnaport, Mag Guts +2. Added a compact Holosun, and carry a pocket light (so no fixed weapon light-as concealment is more important for my use). , and (for me)… coming from a 320 X-compact… it absolutely ROCKS! Might look at the macro grip module, but more likely just a few Macro mags and filler plate as my additional ammo. FWIW, only thing you should be feeling is unburnt powder. If it’s jacket, youve got bigger problems.
cool shades what brand? good review thanks much i was waiting for this type of review. i liked your reviews so much i subscribed solely of your format of review ..well done
Best video I have seen on the Xbox macro. My 365SAS has a comp and ported barrel and spits stuff at me and several other things I don't like. But it's my get off me gun and I carry it in an ankle holster. BTW. Have you checked out the Icarus aluminum grip?
Great video, good work. I have the p365 original with safety and the snappiness of the gun really takes away from my desire to shoot it. I tend to just reach for the LCP max now. The extra capacity, the compensator, the longer grip for my oversized meat hooks seem like they could be a real plus and a positive upgrade. Do you forsee being able to put the x macro frame on original? Maybe a better grip would help the snappiness too...
Great demo of 965, been on the fence. I do have one question, you showed the 17rd magazine fit in the others but will the 10rd magazine fit Macro X? Nj rules
Will the Macro slide fit on an Icarus Precision ACE 365XL Hybrid Grip? Since it fits the original P365’s I imagine it would. If I buy the Macro slide only I have the 3.1” barrel from my original P365 and the Icarus grip🤔
Answered my biggest question ..if the 365XL barrell will fit in the Macro..so sad that it doesn’t. Would have loved to get the gold barrell and have it show thru the compensator ports (some pimp ish) but no…dang!!
Question. How does the compensated slide affect night vision when shooting low light situations? Most traditionally ported handguns I’ve shot the muzzle blast washed out my ability to see anything after the first shot. I’m very interested in getting one to upgrade my original 365 as my edc but don’t want to blind myself if I had to use it in low light
I wish the xmacro had the longer XL barrel. Add the houge rubber grip. It'll change the p365 series for you. The thicker grip and bigger finger bump thing (no idea what is called) to assist with drawing grip.
Gatman, I didn’t know you had a CZcams channel! I’ve been following you on instagram for years now. Question for ya… do you find it ideal to have a red dot on your carry pistol? Like an RMR
That allowance line slayed me 😂
I got mine as well for being a good husband and she added optics, lights, belts, T1 holster as well. might have I probably been a good husband ^_^.
That appendix carry and using the slide stop as a release slayed me
@@03bugeye he’s obviously a plastic gun guy, what do you expect?
“If I’m a good boy” is what made it chuckle worthy for me 😂

Thank you for taking the 17 round mag from the Macro and showing us that it will fit and work in the original 365. I know I'm not the only one wondering if that will work or not.
If you purchase mag from Sig - they come with a different bottom to fit the 365 and 365LX
you can swap the slides/uppers too if you want
@@davidpelletier977yup! Different baseplates for each 365 variant

I also gave my wife my 365 for the same reason as you. You answered all my questions about the x macro. Gained a new sub

I like my XL longer barrel and would like to just upgrade the grip mod if there is little difference. Look forward to more reviews and content.
The porting absolutely makes a difference. I put the macros barrel and slide on a 365xl Wilson combat grip module and it’s great. I sold the macros grip because it was too big for easy concealment in my opinion and I don’t have really big hands.
Nice review. Note that you prefer the trigger in your XL to the trigger in your new Macro - the VERY SIMPLE option is to switch the xl trigger into your macro. I have the original p365 with two different frames one with a picatinny rail addition and one with a Romeo green laser = I can switch frames using the trigger in either in about 30 secs to 1 minute. With the picatinny rail addition I use a light/laser. Additionally I sent my gun back to Sig and had them install the xl straight trigger. With a 12 round mag either frame will be the same length as the xl or x model. Also, with a Magguts addition, my 20 round magazines become short 12-round.magazines and my 12-round magazine becomes a 14-round mag providing me with 13 or 15 rounds loaded with one in the chamber. Additionally, I pocket carry with either the 10 or 12 round mags depending on the pocket sizes. I feel I have just about the perfect gun for my needs. Will consider adding a macro slide if Sig ever lowers the price for the slide only ( they quoted me a price of $525 for the macro slide itself, which I feel is way too much as the price quoted for an xl slide was approximately $225). At this time, I’ll stick with what I have and love it. Try exchanging your trigger module to get the one you want without having to buy another trigger module - it takes removing the slide and barrel and pushing one pin out to remove the entire trigger assembly from one to the other. Good luck.

If Sig used whatever magic to create a 17 round magazine in something that has a barely longer grip height than the P365XL, and then applied it to a 15 round grip - that would be incredible. If they split the grip height between the macro and the XL, it would be perfect for me. However, makes me wonder about the 15 round magazines for the original P365...
Anyway, for now I'm still happy with my original P365. I swap between the 10 round mags for summer carry, and the 12 round mags for winter carry when I can cover the extra grip height easier with heavier clothes.
dont comply and fight your state on it.
Colorado should be a red state. Fix that beautiful state.
You can still buy the the x macro in Colorado. Who gives a shit about the 15 round rule, gun stores in my area simply don’t care and sell “high” capacity mags anyways
Good job on this comprehensive comparison video.
Just upgraded from my G43 for carry. Going shooting tomorrow. I already love it
New sub, great review. The comped slide definitely reduces muzzle rise a bit.
I’m going to put the macro slide assembly on my small P365. I can’t wait. Just found your channel. I love it. Sub’d
My ‘pinky’ issues are with baby Glocks with extended mag base plates, both with the +1 and plain finger extensions. My pinky fell right into the gap between the sharp edge of the base and the grip frame. Glock 27s we’re the worst. I always went home with a blood blister on my pinky unless I curled it under the mag, like I do with the flat plates. Not so much of a problem with G43s. I recently fired a 365X, and handled a new Macro. I’m debating on whether to get the Macro and a standard 365 grip frame and mags for those occasions where concealment and capacity are both equally important, or a 365X, or a Macro and an original 365. I currently have a couple of G43xs and a 43, but the 365 trigger, even stock, is miles ahead.
Finally, a gun reviewer with my-size hands. Great review.
Well done. Kicking around IWB full size or 10 rd. pocket carry size. Very informative. Thank you. I subscribed.
i just got my macro and a holosun with the same light you have, just got my holster, the gun feels good in hand and holds 17 rounds very exciting, would u reccomend a different firing unit or keeping it stock?
Dude!!😂...
The 2min "intro" was AWESOME!!!!! 👍👍🔥
Dude this was a great video. Well done man.
Cool video! Love the shooting in the intro👍 just got my Macro and compaired to my 365x it feels so much better in the hand and shoots great.
Isn't the macro to big for cc?
@@Frdtsl it's smaller than a Glock 19 and the sane size as the Hellcat Pro.
I am leaning towards getting this XL Macro as my EDC. Thanks for the review. New subscriber.
Check out the 365X first. I ignored it for a long time and just picked it up and love it
Go away scammer!
I’m running the macros barrel and slide on a 365XL Wilson Combat grip. Love it. Sold the Macors grip.
That's the way to go! The WC XL grip is incredible. Especially with the magguts +2 conversion for the 12 round mags.
@@ArduousPun yes. I’ve essentially stopped looking at other carry guns. I do wish the trigger were a hair lighter but that’s a quibble.
Thanks for the video. Subscribed.
I think I will wait for the frames. Hopefully they make one for the regular 365 slide and barrel.
There are a few very minor differences inside the fcg I noticed when doing a trigger spring kit on mine. But very negligible.
Kept me focused from beginning 2 end. Great video
Get the mcarbo short stroke flat trigger for your 365s,i got that and a Icarus grip for my 365 and it made a huge difference.
Also added a bigger tail on it and regular rail.
I Actually went over to Tombstone Tactical here in my local area at Phx Metro center today to look for a Beretta A300 and during my time there I was shown this SIG Macro… 🤔Wow, what a nice system sig has provided. I may pick it up down the road as it was very nice in ergonomics, capacity and with sight options.

What holster is he using in this video? I'm trying to find a good appendix carry holster for my xmacro but having difficulty finding the right one that is comfortable and fits well.
Great comparison, thank you.
Magguts makes a magazine kit that will solve that grip length problem for you. Their 14 round kit not only increases capacity but also extends the length just slightly. That and the Wilson Combat grip frame have solved all my hand fit issues with the 365 family. Also Zev makes a magazine button that help with that too.
I’m happy to see positive comments here about the Wilson Combat grip. I just ordered one for my XL.
@@fallofshadows2209 They're incredible! Hope you're enjoying it as much as I am.
Just purchased the P365 Macro. It is the bomb! I carried the 1st Gen M&P Shield with the mag extension. I always carry an extra mag as well. My capacity went from 17 rounds total to 35 rounds. With the Holosun 407K X2 red dot. It completes my needs for a high capacity, easily concealed 9 mm. Great video and if you missed any points, I don't know what they were.
I’ve got the P365 which I converted to a P365X with optic. Also have the P365XL w/ optic. At smaller dude and those carry easier on warm weather w T-shirts and shorts. Got Xmacro for colder weather season. At a bit worried about printing and not many holsters out yet.
@North jersey Kev the XL shoots flatter and less snappy. Prefer to concealed carry the X.
Fantastic video, keep it up! I might have to pick one up tomorrow.
I went with the ‘poor man’s Specter: 365XL, Magnaport, Mag Guts +2. Added a compact Holosun, and carry a pocket light (so no fixed weapon light-as concealment is more important for my use). , and (for me)… coming from a 320 X-compact… it absolutely ROCKS! Might look at the macro grip module, but more likely just a few Macro mags and filler plate as my additional ammo. FWIW, only thing you should be feeling is unburnt powder. If it’s jacket, youve got bigger problems.
Just need the Wilson Combat grip module!
Best video I’ve seen with this gun, I’ve watched it like 4 times lol
Damn how do you only have 5k subs…Great video
Loved the review. Thanks!
Great content. I’m subbed. Btw what holster do you use?
cool shades what brand? good review thanks much i was waiting for this type of review. i liked your reviews so much i subscribed solely of your format of review ..well done
Brother do you think a longer slide and barrel snd better trigger will be there next option
Icarus Precision (7075 aluminum) has a grip for the Macro already. Their products are next level and will fix your XL as well.
Best video I have seen on the Xbox macro. My 365SAS has a comp and ported barrel and spits stuff at me and several other things I don't like. But it's my get off me gun and I carry it in an ankle holster. BTW. Have you checked out the Icarus aluminum grip?
Sig just came out with the P365 x macro Tac Ops, which is basically a xl slide and barrel on the x macro frame. Which one would you buy?
Great video, good work. I have the p365 original with safety and the snappiness of the gun really takes away from my desire to shoot it. I tend to just reach for the LCP max now. The extra capacity, the compensator, the longer grip for my oversized meat hooks seem like they could be a real plus and a positive upgrade. Do you forsee being able to put the x macro frame on original? Maybe a better grip would help the snappiness too...
You can buy the XL grip and it’s the same thing as the X-Macro
Great demo of 965, been on the fence. I do have one question, you showed the 17rd magazine fit in the others but will the 10rd magazine fit Macro X? Nj rules
Great video man, looks controllable
Will the Macro slide fit on an Icarus Precision ACE 365XL Hybrid Grip? Since it fits the original P365’s I imagine it would.
If I buy the Macro slide only I have the 3.1” barrel from my original P365 and the Icarus grip🤔
Answered my biggest question ..if the 365XL barrell will fit in the Macro..so sad that it doesn’t. Would have loved to get the gold barrell and have it show thru the compensator ports (some pimp ish) but no…dang!!
Great video and that intro..was pretty bad ass. Very nice work sir.
Was just wondering the other day when you would be uploading a new video. Think I'm pretty sold on the macro being my next ccw
Hey man what are these frames you’re talking about at the end, and have they came out yet? I’m interested
Question. How does the compensated slide affect night vision when shooting low light situations? Most traditionally ported handguns I’ve shot the muzzle blast washed out my ability to see anything after the first shot. I’m very interested in getting one to upgrade my original 365 as my edc but don’t want to blind myself if I had to use it in low light
It does flash but is does not distract. This is mostly a made up problem by gun nerds.
@thegatman what iwb holster are you running? Just got my macro and already my favorite!
I wish the xmacro had the longer XL barrel.
Add the houge rubber grip. It'll change the p365 series for you. The thicker grip and bigger finger bump thing (no idea what is called) to assist with drawing grip.
I may try the hogue for my macro . I have tons of hogues
Thanks for the review.. I think I’ll stick to my XL for my purposes.
Gatman, I didn’t know you had a CZcams channel! I’ve been following you on instagram for years now. Question for ya… do you find it ideal to have a red dot on your carry pistol? Like an RMR
