Metal trigger heats up. Deal breaker! My Glock's trigger never heats up.
































Bwahahahahaha! Kidding. Looks pretty cool.

Do you lose the option of a rear sight with an optic mounted?

Sure looks like it. A number of other companies have done that too (Walther Q5 for example); they seem to be catering towards the competition shooters knowledge base, rather than what's best for self defense. Too bad, since the above is not exactly a race gun. It's surprising how many people and companies don't see the differences between competition and self defense.

Some RDS have a rear sight built into the optic, and the leaked info placed on Osage County Guns' website shows the Romeo Zero with a rear sight. It still may not present the same sight picture as the standard rear sight, but we don't know yet. https://www.osagecountyguns.com/blog/news/sig-sauer/new-sig-sauer-p365-xl/

Left to Right, Glock 19 (15 rounds), Sig P365 XL (12 Rounds), Glock 26 (10 Rounds), Sig P365 (10 rounds):



Same as above, but viewed from the top:



L-Glock 19 (15 rounds), R-Sig P365XL (15 round optional magazine): (Sorry, the side picture didn't turn out.)



The Sig is longer with the 15 round magazine. Interestingly, for as small as the P365 XL is compared to the G19, the weight difference with each loaded to standard capacity (15 and 12) is only 5 [edited from 4] ounces, of which 1.2 can be attributed to the extra three rounds of ammo in the Glock.

Thanks for the pics Cheyenne. There is a 365 XL for a great price in the classifieds and I was going back and forth over whether or not to buy it. If I didn't already have a G43 and a Shield, I'd be looking hard at the 365 for sure.

I have never had a trigger on either of my guns heat up, of course the most I have shot through any one of them at one time was 150 rounds or so. My biggest complaint with the gun is that the grip is so small I wind up using too much trigger finger when I just draw it and start shooting. Still its more accurate in my hands than either the G43 or Shield. I will say the plastic magazine release on the glock is a better idea as the metal one on the sig comes in contact with your sweat.

Will the XL fit an open barrel end holster for a 365? Is that part of both guns the same ?
