So far it sounds like they are already on the 2nd gen. first gen was having issues with firing pins and trigger groups breaking. sounds like sig has got it all sorted out but still run a good amount through the gun before you trust it for carry.

I don't think you could buy a new 1st gen P365 now.

Im definitely happy with mine. Decent trigger, good sights, and now its at a little over 1000 rounds with no malfunctions. It really likes 124 grain stuff.
Practical accuracy and a packable rifle.
Blued steel and walnut is always better.

I'm also happy with mine. I have not had any issues. I did notice striker drag for the first time after hearing about it/watching MAC's video. But I did some more research and asked a few buddies with the G43 and the Shield and they said they saw the same thing. I don't think that is an issue- I think the QC on one batch of strikers was it.

I noticed the striker drag on my 43 and shield but it wasnt as pronounced. The 12 round mag is worth it for a spare to carry. I will say the grip texturing is rough on shirts. A few of my poor walmart 4 pack t-shirts got some holes rubbed through em

I really want to go with the 365 being out of the box I wouldn't really have to touch anything, but the problems they have had still concerns me. im about 40/60 split right now, slight leaning towards the shield PC and just modifying it a bit. two things I hate on the gun is the trigger and the stupid fiber optic sights (its a carry gun, night sights S&W!) but I know what to expect out of the Shield and those modifications are relatively easy and cheap. ugh ill have a lot to ponder.

I would never tell anyone to trust a newly designed carry gun based on my one gun experience but for the price its worth trying one out. The Shield PC I tried and hated. I by far prefer my 2.0 with factory night sights to the PC amd the apex triggers work great. But with the price of those mods ypur already over the cost of a 2nd gen 365.

Its true but i know what to expect from the S&W. Ive heard and seen multipule complaints about the 365. not only jamming, but firing pins and trigger groups breaking. Im not easy on my guns normally and of course would test it out before carrying it but still the amount of problems out of the gate has me worried.

I'm a little surprised to hear some not liking the PC Shield.  I've had mine since shortly after they became available and its been a great little gun to shoot.  I particularly like the trigger in the PC version, it's easily better than any other gun I've shot in the same class.  But, even though that nice trigger is great at the range, I'm not sure how beneficial or necessary it is in a CCW.

I like the new Sig365 because it holds more and I think it's slightly smaller and typically you don't get smaller and higher capacity at the same time.  I'm a big Sig fan, I've never sold a single Sig that I purchased, but like a few others, I'm going to hold off for awhile before I jump out and buy one.
