I love how imperfect your tool is. It isn’t a show piece. It’s practical.
Thanks man!
I trust him. I was on the fence regarding several P365 upgrades. I am going to do them now.-I thought tha magazine thing was a joke, As he mentioned it, I really want to try one now.
Fantastic editing and description, big things coming for this channel. Keep at it man
Thank you so much man!! I’ll keep trying brother :)
Appreciate the vid dude, nicely done!
Thank you sir!
Dope! Someone using their tools! 🤙🏼💪🏼
Put a glasses cleaner (cloth) around the compensator before wrenching it. Very nice mods.
New subscriber, I’m also in the Twin Cities; my EDC is p365x macro that I recently purchased and will be modifying. Thank you for your insight.
Solid choice. My current setup is actually the same slide and comp combo. Everything’s pretty identical except the Wilson combat xmacro grip
Nice shirt brother, great vid too.
Appreciate it man!👊🏻
Great video just subscribed.
thank you!
Easy to trust this video cuz you see the wear and tear and usage on this.
Would changing out the stock trigger for this flat trigger ( trigger shoe only no internal springs etc ) effect the reliability of it? I feel like it shouldn’t
Any comment on the trade out slides? Not only for looks but for function. Your thoughts. I'm purchasing a 365 X with red dot ( both used) and pondering to beef it up some. Great vid.
As far as function, it doesn't really provide any benefits. If anything, it might be best not go with this specific brand (LF)... They get really horrible reviews when it comes to their QC. I can however recommend FDEZ werks.
Pretty decent representation of your gunsmithing skills. Two thumbs up.
Thanks man! Definitely no where close to being a smith haha
I have the regular p365 with 2 17rd mags from the Macro, a SIG red laser, hogue rubber grip and the threaded barrel and comp are next!
Where you get that trigger from?
Niceee
I've changed my P365XL by quite a bit too. 1st was a Holosun 507K red dot, then a Magguts spring & follower, then a Wilson Combat grip module, then a 4.2" True Precision barrel (without the peep-hole) because I like the power of a 4" barrel, then 2 trips back to Sig for dead trigger issues, then finally a Tactical trigger kit which although was a little challenging to put it, at least to me was well worth the admission fee of around $105.00 Less trigger take-up, and a much quicker rolling trigger break. I think this was the best upgrade of all! All in all with all the changes I've made I figure I have around $1,340 into the pistol, but if I would have to do it all over again, I would do everything all over again. Just wish it would go more than just a couple of thousand rounds before needing to be sent back to Sig. I shoot this at IDPA & ASI events and do pretty good with it. It is accurate and reliable (at least for a couple of thousand rounds). I carry this P365XL IWB at 3:30 in a Clinger 2-clip Holster with comfort pad and I hardly know it's there. Any grip length that's longer & it starts to noticeably print. I have walked the trails in Glacier & Yellowstone National Parks and it hides quite well, even with just a regular shirt for cover with 147 gr. hard cast rounds & a can of Bear spray. I believe it was a Grizzly bear that was killed with the 147 gr. hard cast through a 4" barrel pistol. I would have liked to carry my 4" ported PC Shield Plus, but it has too many stovepipe malfunctions and with the red dot so close to the breech face and peephole, it fogs up the red dot lens after only a handful of rounds. At least when you take the rear sight off of the P365XL frame it puts the red dot at the very back keeping the lens clear, even after 50 rounds or more. And if you use white nail polish on the rear sight of the red dot, you can get a good sight picture even if the dot goes down. Pretty accurate this way too, just not near as good.
Ain't no one readying this essay
the dude must have no friends to talk to lol@@Dooby0071
My P365 build is just as fun to shoot, and just as competent as my larger pistols. That means it's being compared to a PDP and a P10F. My video isn't as high quality as yours, but it shows what I did for my build.
I didn't bring my tripod with me when I went to shoot it last time. The plan was to shoot enough to zero the dot, but then I ended up shooting 400-500rds...had the indoor range to myself, and this setup is a fuckin blast.
Plans for range footage include swapping on a XL slide to compare recoil behavior, and comparing it to a G19.5 and maybe I will throw the PDP in there for shits.
It takes my P365XL with a red dot and Tactical trigger upgrade to equal the accuracy of my CZ P10C with just iron sights. Like em both, but no way am I going to carry a huge pistol like the P10C when P365's are available.
Hellcat RDP. Upgrade to Apex t3 trigger. Send it to chpwd. Mill the slide for Holosun EPS Carry 6 red moa :)
gonna be a monster of a carry👊🏻
Aye! Fellow Minnesotan! Do you have any holsters that you use with that compensator?
anything with an open mouth seems to work well! you might need to take a dremel and round out edges a little depending on
Mine keeps coming lose after a few magizines even with locktite? Any solutions
This build is so nice. I’m thinking of a 365xl for my edc. I’ve heard people saying they don’t want to change triggers on a carry gun but from what I’ve heard the stock trigger on 365s is the only thing holding me back from getting it. Have you had any issues with your trigger?
None! It's been perfect for me. Doesn't change how the trigger behaves too much just cleans up the pre travel, wall, break, and reset
@@TheKoreanMarksman awesome man. Thanks for the info. Keep up the dope vids!!
What problem with the trigger have you heard of? Both from long-term owners online and people from my local range, the number of people who have had an issue with a P365 is 0. From instructors to people like myself.
At this point I have two FCU's, and I would say that neither of them need anything done to them. I thought the new module that came with the XL needed something, but it turns out all it needed was a wiped down and some lube in the right places and the trigger felt way better in terms of smoothness on takeup, and now with a bunch of dry fire and a bit of range time it's broken in nicely.
Don't touch the trigger until you have 1000 or so rounds through the platform. If you think you still need a trigger change, sure, knock yourself out.
I think you can do whatever modifications you want, just make sure to vet it through at least hundreds of rounds in various conditions. Before carrying it. Same for anything new from the factory.
Hi, first time watching your channel. Great video. Can you give more detail about the mag upgrade? Any issues? Price? Website? Etc.
Thanks
Mag upgrade are the Magguts. I can't link to them due to CZcams's regulations but they're easy to find after a quick google search.
I don't know if you'll see this but what holster do you use? I don't carry appendix or have a light
Hey man! I love QVO "more discreet" holsters. TXC are pretty fantastic too.
Did you have to sand out any of the cerakote coating inside that slide? I keep on having FTEs.
No mine ended up running perfectly actually but I have heard their QC is pretty poor
Sir, I just recently swapped out my stock P365x trigger for the flat one. Everything went well except the slide takedown lever is very hard to turn. Is this normal for the takedown lever or should I go back to the drawing board. Please advise.
Regards, Denis C. Berte' USMC
Hmm it depends on how hard it is to flip the lever.. maybe get a set of professional eyes on it
@@TheKoreanMarksman Sir, I put a heavy amount of grease on the end of the take down lever bar and it's now moving a little easier. Sometimes it just takes a little dab of grease to solve most problems in life. Thanks again sir! Regards, Denis Berte' USMC
Is the compensator a notable upgrade to outweigh the added length/weight or is it more to get the extra percentage of performance?
It’s definitely worth the length/weight that it adds in terms of lessening the felt muzzle flip in my opinion.
"My job doesn't allow me to carry"...
And the video cuts when he incriminate himself for saying he carries anyway 😅
Same here, brother
Hehehe I’m applying for new jobs anyways ;)
Ah, a fellow Minnesotan
🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️
Looks like he just left the church and went straight to the range.
HA!
What happened to your Fdez slide? Is this option better than the spectre comp kind of build?
I ended up selling it... In terms of recoil reduction, it's a better option than fdez/spectre in my opinion. Aesthetics, I prefer fdez
@@TheKoreanMarksman thanks for your reply. I carry similar guns as you do, I use the shadow system mr920 with a comp when I can on a TXC pro holster and the sig p365 xl when it is not possible. I saw that one guy in the tier 1 concealed team uses 7 ports on his p365 xl and was also considering that. Gun seems to shoot very flat. It is the lucky 7 ports by monsoon tactical.
@@a.juarez9770 I've definitely thought about that too! For me, I'll probably end up porting my shadow systems cr920 and might even think about porting my 365 and keeping the comp on too. That's been gaining popularity . So many possibilities, so little money haha!
@@TheKoreanMarksmanThat’s true... making all these guns your own is quite expensive. Just FYI shadow systems is releasing their CR920 with the integrated port. Maybe you want to try that first before you port the one you have. They have a launch event on may 20th in a couple of ranges in the U.S.
does a compensator serve a purpose?
it compensates for my insecurities
Shoot, I don't think you can even call that a Sig OR a P365 anymore.
your point is difficult to argue with😂
There’s only two types of people I take advice from when it comes to firearms: middle aged men and Koreans.
Edit: and women. Women are better shots than men. Fight me.
😂😂
You should have just bought a Sig P365 XL Spectre Comp rather than “rigging” a project gun together that seems to have many minor flaws as per your explanation other than the Wilson Combat grip module. You have also given up the smaller proportions that was the original intention of the 365 by OVER modifying it.
My advise, get a P365-380 and add a Wilson Combat grip module…PERIOD!! You are obviously a civilian and 380 is all you need with Hornady Critical Defense.
right FTX - FBI gel test to 13.2" with .52" cavity size. or XTP - FBI gel test to 14.1" with .39" cavity size. yep good enough and yet the 380 firearms are small.
No ShaloTek? No IcarusPrecision? Why even shoot 😫😪
