Good video and very informative! The Sig P365 was the first gun I ever purchased and was my carry gun until I purchased the P365 X-Macro. I still use it and would recommend it to anyone looking for a 9mm to conceal carry. Great gun, very reliable and accurate!

My top 5 1. Walther pdp 2. Sig p365 xmacro (legion is cooler, but heavier) 3. Glock 43x 4. S&w mp 2.0 compact 5. Springfield hellcat Honorable mention: s&w shield plus

I enjoy and trust my 365x macro comp. It's in the sweet spot cost wise because I can shoot and practice on the range for fun but still not so expensive that if I were have to surrender it I could go out and get another.

Have you've seen the x-5 legion? I'm torn btwn the 365 x-5 legion and the 320 axg legion even looking externally at the new legion style 226

You're bang on in this list... I'm in NJ with 10 round mag limit. I bought a VP9SK running a Holosun SCS optic and the 10 round pinkie mag. The trigger is absolutely impeccable. It's so comfortable to shoot but a bit big in my opinion to carry. I run an Olight Valkyrie and fits perfectly. Because it is on the larger subcompact size I got a Springfield Hellcat OSP for carry. It is small and comfortable to hold and the stock tritium sights are absolutely incredible. Gen2 trigger is crisp and it is super accurate. Because of it's small size, it really does kick, but you get used to it especially with the pinkie extension. Highly recommend both.

I’d recommend 365xl spec compe. HK are awesome tho, got a full size. As for 10 round, you can always manage to find bigger just gotta look. And know ways around!

Sig P365XL with a TLR-6 weapon light. Not to mention the new 17 round mags that go with any P365 model. Add a DPM recoil reducer and you have one very accurate and reliable sidearm. I prefer Sig Night Sites, but others prefer to add a red dot.

Carry the p210 Carry or Hellcat Pro. The 210 is a cut above and one of my favorites

I love the VP9 and have 3 of them including the PV9SK. It has a great trigger and feels better in my hand than my Sig 365X, even with the extended mag. Another favorite that I've been carrying is the S&W Shield+.

Good info! Get your AZ CCW Online for Multi-State Concealed Carry

I have not had the same, positive, experience with the P365. I have gone to the Glock 43X with the available 15 round mags from Shield Arms and PSA. I have obtained the Springfield HellCat Pro with 17 round mags as an option.

My concealed carry for the past three years was the Walther PPK. Small, reliable, and extremely accurate. It definitely made the 6+1 count! I’ve been trying to find a 9mm replacement for it since .380 ammo has become so expensive but so far no good 9 mm compact with a metal frame and a decocker Seems to be available.

According to most analytics and sales the most popular ccw for the last several years have been... 1) Sig P365 2) Glock 43X 3) Taurus G2C 4) Ruger LCP Max 5) Springfield Hellcat. No real surprises since they are all affordable and reliable enough to protect you and your family.

Yep, went from being a “Glock only guy” and “I’ll never CC anything other than g26 in g3 or g4. I got sick of feeling like I had a brick taped to me hip! 😂🙈 Tried a 365 out. Preferably a custom spec XL, so instead of a 3.7 barrel, you do a 3.1 but keep same size slide! But the nose of the slide gets compensation cuts! So helps recoil, saves weight, and looks cool! Not to mention it’s not any less accurate than the reg XL! Compared to g26….😮‍💨…. There is none.. it’s way smaller /thinner feeling. Can’t even tell it’s on me sometimes! Vs “ I can’t wait to take this thing off!” 😂 I mean it’s not that it’s smaller when you look at both. But it just feels smaller. Slides are same length. Glock is fatter width wise.. but that’s because it’s the same width as a full size. Grip is a little longer.. but that’s cause it’s a 12+1 flush ! 😮 vs your all too familiar 10+1. Not saying that’s bad, but more is always better. You can fit your whole hand on it factory flush! Vs getting extended mag on Glock. And most importantly, the Sig makes a nice little metallic sound when you rack it! 😅 Vs Glock which doesn’t. Glock does have a better price also a better finish they use on the slides etc. No brainer though! Just had to get used to combat style shooting. Plus being used to strictly GLOCK grip angles this was different. Had to watch myself at first. But it’s only been three/ four weeks since I got it, and…. Yea..😊 This is it for me

I'm over 70 years old & just yesterday I was out in the Arizona 🏜 desert, where it's legal this time of year, shooting up several boxes of different types of 9 mm ammo in my new Hellcat. I love the flawless functionality of this little beauty! Not a single problem. I love that the firing pin is actually a bar with a shovel shaped tip -- not likely to break any time soon. I found the Hellcat to not be any snappier then any other small pistol. Snappyness was not a problem. The Hellcat is a perfect conceal carry for me. ❤

Hellcat and 365 in smallest form are the only real contenders. The first three , ok if you wear a parka or other cover garment every day. Here in south that is a big no. Pocket carry rules.

I never did CC. I just scare the hell out of people. That’s going to change, though. Nice review. You can tell in this video that that P365 recoil is very minimal, compared to the others.
