I bought a 365 before the XL existed. When the XL came out, I replaced the 365 with one and do like it better.
Subjective preference. I had a 365 and then bought a 365XL, the flat trigger didn't suit me so I replaced it with a curved one. I had a P365 and bought a P365 XL when it was introduced. When the P365 X came out, I bought a complete X slide so I could put a dot on the P365. Now that I have a dot on both, I have discovered that I get less wobble from the dot when dry firing with the smaller gun (10 round flat base magazine) and the curved trigger. Today I shot both and did better on an IDPA 5X5 qualifier with the P365 than with the P365 XL, and I had not shot the P365 in a while. I probably will get a curved trigger for the XL. I agree with the subjective preference part.

I have the 365X and absolutely love it. I am amazed how accurate iI am with it. When shooting a red dot a longer barrel / sighting plain looses it's value. The X / XL grip is the ticket

Cheyenne, take the red dot off and see how you do. After all of the effort getting the two guns set up the way I wanted, I don't see that happening soon! My curved trigger arrived yesterday, and that likely will be my next experiment.

I definitely prefer the straight trigger

The X / XL grip is the ticket I love my standard P365, but I really liked the X version I handled at my LGS the other day. May have to add one of those to my collection.

The more I shoot the P-365 the more it amazes me, it’s one accurate pistol. There’s just not much to improve upon for my uses. I will change to Trijicon HD’s at some point, the green front doesn’t stand out to my old eyes.

I have a P30L but it doesnt seem to be working out for me. It hits a little left So I changed out the panels from.smalls to meds. See if that helps.
Would like to try a 365XL and a VP9 out before purchase. Some ranges out of town have rentals. Would be good to try before buy.
I bet if I get a 365XL and a Holosun one of my kids ends up w it LOL

Seems fitting in this thread, but has anyone mentioned the tacpac that is currently on sale at sportsman's warehouse right now? $549.99. Comes with a 15 round mag, 12 round mag and kydex holster and case. Pretty damn hard to beat that deal.. I wouldn't be buying it for the holster, it looks cheap, but its hard to beat an XL with 15 and 12 round mag for that price..
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

I’m between the G48 and the P365XL right now. I can get the Sig with the optic and mags for about $650.

Sporty’s had an additional $30 off for loyalty members for a few days before Christmas, brought the price down to $519.99 for the TacPac. For clarification, mine came with two 15-round mags and a 12-rounder. Definitely a good deal!

Finding them in stock at your local store is the hard part, but I guess guys can order them. I also had about $30.00 in rewards points at Sportsman's, but that loyalty member stuff is great. They have had some really good deals around Christmas time here too. Here's the link to the tac pac: Sig sauer tac pac $549.99The op wanted it easy. Doesn't get much easier than that... However, if you want one with a manual safety, they are currently out of stock..

My 365XL has the Holosun 507k optic on it and I love It! It replaced my Glock 19 as my church carry pistol. 13 in the gun and a 15 round mag in my pocket. I also used my UpLula to put the last round in the mags. Sliced my thumb trying to put the last round in without it.
