Sig marketing doesn't seem to have any problem changing/adding designations when releasing new models which makes tracking what is what complicated.
Currently... there are 4 grips:
- standard - proprietary rail, 10 rd flush mags
- X - proprietary rail, 12 rd flush mags
- Macro - 1913 rail, 17rd flush-ish mags
- AXG Legion - aluminum, g10 scales, 1913 rail, 17rd mags
- slight difference in 1913 rail affects XMacro holster compatibility
and 2 barrel lengths:
and 4 slides (more if you count the optic plate variations):
- original ('short'): takes 3.1" barrel and uses a double spring RSA
- revised for the 365X to include an optic plate
- SAS slide is ported and has different slide release and sights
- L ('long'): takes 3.7" barrel and uses a single spring RSA
- original L slide has the rear sight included in the optic plate
- usually these are marked 'XL'
- revised L slide has the rear sight separate from the optic plate
- Spectre/Macro Comp: 3.1" barrel in 3.7" slide with integral comp using the single spring RSA, optic ready
- 'comp' slides have suppressor height sights (usually)
- 'comp' slides are dimensionally identical to the L slide and fit the same holsters
- 380: lightened 3.1" slide using a 380-specific barrel and double spring RSA, optic ready
The various released models mix and match the slides and grips:
- 365: standard grip and 3.1" slide/barrel
- 365 SAS: standard grip and 3.1" slide/barrel (with special porting, controls and sights)
- 365 XL: X grip and 3.7" barrel and one of the 3.7" optic-ready L slides
- 365 X: X grip and 3.1" barrel and the 3.1" optic-ready slide
- 365 XL Spectre: X grip and 3.7" L slide
- slide has cosmetic differences: serrations, cut outs, distressed finish
- 365 XL SpectreComp: X grip and 3.7" comp'ed slide
- cosmetics: gold TiN controls, 'Sig Custom Works' engraved slide
- laser stippled grip
- 365-380: standard grip with 380 barrel and slide
- 365 XMacro(Comp): macro grip and 3.7" comp'ed slide
- released as the XMacro but called XMacroComp after the TacOps was released
- 365 XMacro TacOps: macro grip and 3.7" non-comp L slide
- 365 AXG Legion: AXG grip and 3.7" comp slide
So, the model decoder (up to this point) is:
- 'X' designates 12rd grip, flat trigger and optic ready slide
- 'L' designates the 3.7" barrel and slide
- 'Macro' designates the 17rd grip module
- 'Comp' designates the 3.1" barrel and optic ready integral comp slide
- 'MS' in the SKU indicates a factory installed manual safety
- 'SAS' (Sig Anti Snag) has a unique fibre optic sight, minimized controls and a ported barrel/slide
- the ported barrel was phased out relatively quickly
- 'Rose' designates rose-colored TiN controls and packaging applied to regular models
- 'TacOps' package includes extra mags (more than the standard 2)
- 'TacPac' includes extra mags and a holster
- 'AXG Legion' uses an aluminum grip module with Legion graphics, challenge coin
Magazines
- capacities
- 10 rd (9mm or .380)
- 12 rd (9mm or .380)
- 15 rd - discontinued after 17rd mag was released
- 17 rd
- 365-380 mag differences
- marked with '.380' instead of '9mm'
- have a plastic spacer inside the spring coils
- have slightly different feed lips
- 9mm mags can be used with 365-380s
- not supported by Sig but those who have tried reported success
- .380 mags can be used for 9mm if the plastic spacer in the spring coil is removed
- again, not supported but works
+2 kits (flat spring + baseplate) are available for the 10, 12 and 15 rd mag bodies:
+2/+3 kits are available for the 17 rd body
Generally speaking
- 365 FCUs may be fitted with the optional manual safety
- the FCU requires a grip module with safety cutouts if the safety is installed
- the required safety cutouts are marked on Sig grip modules
- XMacro grips, being slightly wider, may need additional relief for the safety levers
- 365 FCUs fit any grip module
- the FCU is available separately, as a standalone component, in gold TiN or plain black (nitride, not TiN)
- 365 slides are interchangeable
- meaning a complete slide assembly will work on any FCU/grip
- for example taking the 365X slide and using it on a XMacro grip+FCU
- not all barrels are compatible with all slides
- 365-380 3.1" barrel only works in the 365-380 slide
- 3.7" barrel works in the 3.7" non-comp 'L' slide
- also works in the short slide - like a threaded barrel with no threads
- 3.1" barrel does not work in the 3.7" non-comp 'L' slide
- longer mags work in shorter grips
- spacers are available to fill the gap between base plate and pistol grip
- base plates are available for (some) shorter mags so they work in longer grips
- holster compatibility is determined by overall slide length and type of rail
