Thanks for a nice comparison; the FN sounds like a solid option. I picked up a P365 about a month ago and I was VERY impressed! Mine is optics ready and has the manual safety. The only complaints I have are the tiny mag release and the up-slanted bottom of the grip. While it does aid concealment, that grip shape also interferes with reloading as the meat of my hand keeps the 10rd mag from dropping free and I have to slightly shift my grip to reach that tiny mag button. I pocket-carry, so the small mag rides in the gun, and I carry a 17rd mag for reload. M-CARBO makes a slightly larger mag release that I am considering for an upgrade.

My P365 stainless is just amazing. I keep coming back to it. For some reason, I shoot it more accurately than full-size pistols. It’s just a sweetheart

Congratulations on hitting 100k!

Thank you!!

I had a P365. Never cared much for the trigger in it. I do prefer that style of sights to what the Reflex has though. Never shot one of them and not particularly interested after seeing how the trigger moves, but if I shot one and loved it I would probably black out the white dots on the rear sight. Or just get a rear very much like the Sig comes with.

Eyeing the FN Reflex, but still holding out for the HK VP9cc. Hoping to live long enough to see it grace our shores...

I own both. The 365 out the gate fed every type of ammo and never any issues. The Reflex was a fail to feed fest for the first 200 rounds. After that no issues. Both guns are accurate for me but the FN for me takes it in accuracy.

I do have the P365 in 9mm and 380acp. Love it! Very accurate atleast for me and I see for you as well Mr Hammer. There is a few draw backs with it like short maintenance cycle 1500 rounds is short in my opinion and the horn like grip. But that's me. Anyway I own them and love's. Stay safe.

I traded my original P365 for the Reflex. I couldn't be happier. It has ate every type of ammo, is dead accurate out of the box and the trigger is unbelievable. My son carries the M&P shield. He shot the reflex today and loved it. He shot much tighter groups with my Reflex than he did with his shield. He was shocked.

Takes a while to get used to the SAO trigger but once I started shooting it, I couldn’t stop. For me, it 💩 s on the p365 easily.

Love my FN Reflex haven't used the P365 since I got it.

I like to have different firearms from other people. I recognize sig as a solid option while I look elsewhere for something I find as a good firearm. What I mean by that is I’ll go through other options to find a fit for me rather than bandwagon the popular thing. I picked up a beretta apx centurion because it was affordable and comfortable. I took that to some training courses and I ended up being more proficient with the apx over my Glock 19 I started out with. Rented a CZ at the gun range and I really liked that one so I bought one. CZ turned out to be the popular one that worked. Tried sig and I sucked lol.

My edc is an OG 365 even though I have a Hellcat and G43. Still, always appreciate any reviews on new sub or micro 9's

The rail on the FN is narrower than almost any other pistol that I own. I haven’t found a laser that will clamp tight on the Reflex front rail. I’ve tried Viridian, OLight, and Crimson Trace. None of them work on the Reflex but work on any of my other pistols. Just a little FYI.

What are your thoughts on someone said to me recently that you should only carry compact pistols,that the theory is you will be up against a Rifle or AK. And that the compact capacity is optimal. Love the channel! 🙏

I always heard the sig was the thinner one. Was that thickness a measurement of the grip or slide width out of curiosity??

The 365’s trigger when it strikes sounds dead but functions fine. Kind of a weird sound. The FN sounds crisp, the FN IMO is a better gun. I own them all, Hellcat, Hellcat Pro, P365, P365 xl, S&W shield plus. Accuracy is close between them all. Hellcat’s recoil the most but fit my hand maybe the best with grip angle. I trust FN the most, sig had issues with 320 so the 365 worries me a little. Hold them all, decide on one and buy it. It comes down to what feels good in the hand because they all shoot good

Which Hogue grip are you using on the Reflex? Might try one out

I will stick with my original P365 with manual safety.

I have the 365, Reflex, G43x and Hellcat. I like the Hellcat best.

Shield Plus entered the chat....

Both companies are solid. For me the P365 full line is fantastic.

FN is underrated.. they fit my hand better than glock and many buy SIG for name.. LAPD went with FN i believe. I have 2, no experience with warranty cause its drives nails out if box and shoot flawless

Which one would you say is easier to shoot or has less recoil?

I own a few FN’s they didn’t have the bad QC talk the reflex has.

Hammer can you please review the Taurus TH45?

I’ve heard that the Reflex trigger is so light that it may be dangerous to carry with one in the chamber. Can you comment on that?

If you could only have one of these two pistols - which would you choose?

I have had issues with my FN Reflex. When I shot out of the box, after 200 rounds or so it failed to go into battery repeatedly, which isn't good. I have an low serial number; nevertheless, I'm concerned because I'm hearing about accuracy issues; shooting low and left. Maybe it's me, but I'm going to a gunsmith for that.

I watch videos like this and I've tried a few micro compacts (not the Reflex, though), but I still prefer the S&W Shield Plus OR and IWI Masada S OR over the competition. They do everything I need them to do and are both cheaper than these two. The Masada line is vastly underrated. Regarding the topic, I think the P365 will continue to dominate the market for the foreseeable future. First to market and aggressive upgrades make a difference. Congratulations on 100K subscribers.

I have both. I prefer the 365. It's probably because I had it so long. The Reflex trigger was let down to me. I was not impressed.

I want the reflex.Got rid of my 365

No low left issue like everyone else is having including myself?

I have the FN the 365X and the hellcat the FN has the best trigger

I would recommend to anyone who is considering the Reflex to watch as many review videos as possible. We had 3 Reflex MRDs (long story) and had problems with all of them. We tried 5 different types of ammo and 9 different magazines. Each one had over 200 rounds through it. After a break in period, we sold 2 of them because they were stilling having problems, and then sent the 3rd to FN so they could fix it. They sent it back to us with the exact same problems. They fixed nothing. We sold that one shortly after getting it back from FN. I really wanted to love the Reflex. There's many things about this gun that I like, but with so many failures to feed, soft strikes and accuracy issues (even with a Holosun 507k mounted, POA would not meet POI) they just proved too unreliable for us to consider for EDC. What's more upsetting is that FN has taken a stance of zero accountability in fixing the Reflexes that costumers are returning for repair. Everyone that I know has gotten their Reflex back from FN with a 3 shot group target and a note basically saying that there's nothing wrong with it.

If you had read my original post - "We" all shot low left with these Reflex. 7 guys, all shooters with military backgrounds. 21 years active duty myself. I'm not saying there are no good Reflexes out there, but the 3 we had were bad handguns. I think FN had a bad batch and QC dropped the ball. What pisses me off about it is zero accountability on FN's part. A reputable company would've said "Let us fix this" and would've sent new or repaired handguns. Sig did this with the original P365, which had a lot of problems, but Sig owned up to it and fixed all of them and made future releases even better. It's ok for people to have a different opinion than yours and being easily offended is weakness.

I’ll still take a Beretta, Hk or Glock 26, G43X or G43 over a Sig POS polymer any day. I don’t trust the Sig design of an “always cocked” and always “spring-under-tension” striker/firing pin with the Sig. It’s why so many P320’s have gone off by themselves and why Sig has already quietly paid out some law suits, just to make the cases go away. Horrible design.

@colt10mmsecurity68 Wrong. SIG has been winning negligent discharge law suits of folks that blame the gun for their NDs. After the drop safe trigger fix on the P320 only poorly trained law enforcement and civilians have complained. Even the NYPD complained about Glock triggers and Glocks going off by themselves when they transitioned to striker pistols. The military P320s with manual safeties have had no complaints. The P365 after the initial sketchy quality control of contracted firing pins has a proven track record. Guns "going off by themselves" is the common defense for negligent discharges.

The case for those ND’s was indeed “operator error.” We are talking about two different things and ND’s are NOT germane to the topic at hand. What is germane is the topic of design failure and mechanical failure as a result of a piss poor design. That is, mechanical failure of the Sig P-series of pistols. Sig’s issue was/is a gun going off while holstered and/or two, the gun going (((BANG))) when dropped or struck with a rubber mallet to the rear portion of the slide. This is a mechanical and design failure. Sig has been “paying out” for the P320 lawsuits to just make them “go away.” That is hardly a court room “victory” to say the least. Last I read, Sig was at #20 or 21 law suits for defective trigger mechanisms. They’ve only won ONE lawsuit related to an ND and NOT a mechanical “auto discharge.” Nice twist on facts and words on your part. Fail.
