P320 thoughts?

[LibertyTactical]

What do you guys think about the p320?

[RHINOWSO]

Owned one, carried for about 5-6 months - P320C 9MM. Maybe 1K through mine, give or take.

(1) Accurate and easy to shoot. If you suck with a P320, you REALLY suck.

(2) Odd grip sizes - I have very medium sized hands, but needed a P320C Large grip. Not a big deal, but it does make the gun even bigger.

(3) Longer, Taller, Wider, and heavier than a G19.

(4) Initially NOT drop safe. Glad I had traded mine before that debacle.

Wanted to like it more, but the size / weight were the big killer for me.

I shoot a G19 just fine, aftermarket stuff is far better, and you know Glock will be here in 10-20 years - obviously the P320 should be now, but at the time it hadn't been awarded the MHS contract when I went all G19 and move my P320C on.

I have one. Liked it and carried it until the AD debacle. Sent mine in for the voluntary upgrade (Recall). Got it back ran a couple hundred rounds through it and it's been sitting in the back of my safe ever since. I just don't have confidence in it.


My EDC is a Gen5 G19. It is everything I need in a CCW. Reliable, Accurate, Compact, plus lots of accessories and holster available.

Overall the newest iteration of the guns seem to be square away. They are accurate, reliable and I have actually started to take advantage of the modular features. Carry grip for winter and Subcompact for summer. 70 dollars for a grip and a mag and away I go.

I have three guns that I rotate through and the P320 is slowly edging out the other two.

The Good:
-very accurate
-Positive and consistent ejection(looking at you Glock 19)
-100 reliable with and without suppressor(Tirant 45m)
-one of the best out of box triggers on an off brand Glock
-modularity and sealable grips
-ergonomic
-the aftermarket is developing quickly

The Bad:
-it is big relative to competition
-it is heavy relative to competition
-having to potentially send it in for the upgrade(it is a recall)
-need to spend money to get small or large grip
-RX models are only compatible with Sig Optics from factory

The Ugly:
-Sig Sauer Inc.

I'd bang on one all day if you gave it to me but there's no way I'd pay for the bitch.

I like it. 320 full-size, X-Carry grip.
I own four Glocks, no 19s.

I do not own one, but did shoot a P320 Compact in 9mm at a local event. I only put 50 rounds through it, but I've shot enough pistols to know a decent handgun and the 320 is totally decent. The trigger is very nice. The 320C feels great in the hand, but there is more muzzle flip when compared to the G19 due to the god awful height over bore. I mean, come on, Sig, we're talking about basic physics principles that make pistols more shootable.

My buddy has one. Shoots extremely accurately. Good trigger, decent factory sights, and plenty of aftermarket support but nothing like Glock.

However it is noticeably bulkier in every way than my G19. And they have the worst system for adjusting the size of the grip. Have a medium and it’s too small? You can’t simply change grip inserts; you must buy an entire new frame in large.

I’m passing on the 320. I’m going to stick with my g-19.

Good call, and I'm a Sig guy. I love the P320, but I already own one. I sent it in for the recall and it came back flawless. BUT... If you already have a G19, I don't see any reason to switch. Just keep running the G19 and don't look back.

In the durability/reliability departments, are the P320 and P226 roughly comparable?
