I got mine from Frisco Guns $378 shipped. I got my Radian Backstrap/Magwell from Optics Planet and a 13% off coupon, so I ended up paying $147-ish shipped.

Part of my EDC rotation along with my P365 Legion and a few others. LOL

 

How much was your total build and did you start with an X Macro or the standard P365?

 

What will be the primary use of the pistol?

I use all my pistols for CCW, practice, and tactical training, so this build would be for the same.

These are my other pistols:

Glock 17

If you are looking at the tactical/practical role, you would probably be better off with a Macro for the base pistol. However, if you want to go all out, start with the $499 standard P365 and then buy an Icarus Precision Macro grip module. You'll pay some extra duckets for the Icarus Precision module, so it would be better to start with the least expensive base platform if you go that route.

P365 CUSTOM BUILD PROJECT View attachment 677147

Looking to put this build together


I’ll probably go with a black slide and a bronze barrel.

I’ve got two options to choose from:

OPTION #1 $2,136

$720 P365 X Macro
$249 P365X 3.1” Slide
$389 Radian RAMJET Micro
Comp Sig P365 3.1 Bronze
$379 Holosun EPS Carry MRS Rd
$170 Streamlight TLR7 HL-X sub
$149 Radian Backstrap +
Magwell
$ 40 Sig 3.1 Barrel Recoil Spring
$ 40 Sig X Series Flat Trigger

OPTION #2 $1,785

$499 P365
$ 99 Sig X Macro Grip
$389 Radian RAMJET Micro
Comp Sig P365 3.1 Bronze
$379 Holosun EPS Carry MRS Rd
$170 Streamlight TLR7 HL-X sub
$149 Radian Backstrap +
Magwell
$100 Sig full size 10rd mags (2)

Any suggestions?

You may have a third option.
If you live in a free state you could purchase the FCU for $350, then using option #1 (minus purchasing the complete X Macro) get a grip module for the X Macro. Using everything else on your list, you should be good to go. In the end, it should be less money spent on your build. Oh yeah, I almost forgot... Magazines is something else you'll need.

Unfortunately, I’m in California so the FCU isn’t available, however it would have been more expensive that way because I’d have to still buy the P365 standard slide for another $249. The FCU at $350 plus the slide at $249 would have run me $600 which more than just buying the full gun at $499. You’re right if I had planned to go with a custom slide like a Norsso.

 

Seems crazy to start with an xmacro to get the flush look by buying another slide. I may be able to get more $ for it if u resell it but what I did was similar to ur option 2. Same result for way less $. Also wasn’t a big fan of the macro grip and eventually went to an AXG grip. Now im in love with it!

 

My EDC and I’ve had it for four years, I’m glad am not putting another together because prices are through the roof and added Romeo X compact just last year in January.

Icarus grip module $225
True precision slide, and barrel $375
Sig suppressor height sights $89
Sig Sauer FCU with gold flat trigger $325
Sig Romeo X compact 3moa $225
Sig 12 round magazines $45

Remember it being somewhere in the neighborhood of $1k maybe….before adding Romeo X last year.

 

Nice build!

 

I cannot abide spending 2k on a gun unless it's a metal 2011, or a stacato.

 

Agree, I’m struggling with some of these new prices of the Sig Next program.

 

For that kind of money it’s still a mini compact ! You could buy a beautiful factory compensated competition gun ! AND if the 365 is for carry? Heaven forbid you use it , the cops will take it for probably a year if it goes to trial you will have a hard time explaining to a jury why you need such a fancy gun. Every member of that jury may not be 2A believer

 

Woke Prosecutor: "Why do you need such a fancy gun?"

Competent Defense Attorney: "Objection. Relevance.

Woke Prosecutor: Hems and haws about whatever

Judge: "Sustained."

A self-defense claim examines the facts surrounding the shooting. Unless something indicates that there was a negligent discharge to which a modification contributed, a tricked-out gun isn't going to make a bit of a difference if it's a good shoot.

I hear that argument a lot, “don’t customize your gun because if something happens it’ll end up in evidence and you’ll have to explain it to a jury.” I’m not worried about that. I’m customizing my gun so it fits me better and I can shoot it more effectively. A red dot lets me be more precise, a light ensures I can always identify my target, those are responsible choices that any reasonable person, 2A believer or not, can understand.

You also can’t buy a true competition gun for the $1,248 I’m putting into this gun. I already have several $2K plus builds. The point of this one is concealability.

On top of that, I put in the work. I train regularly at the range, I document my dry-fire practice every day, and I train with retired LEOs who also train active officers, covering everything from fundamentals to hostile environment scenarios and “good guy with a gun” courses.

For me the key is train, train, train and never think you know it all, because I certainly don’t. Customizing the gun helps me perform better and the training makes sure I can back it up.

 

I’ve got my P365 3.1 + Afterburner and it completely changed the feel of the gun. The stock setup was noticeably snappy and a little hard to control on quick follow-ups, but with the Ramjet/Afterburner it shoots incredibly flat. Muzzle rise is way reduced and it feels more like shooting a larger pistol. Transitions are faster, and I can run double-taps without the front sight jumping all over the place. Honestly, it doesn’t even feel like the same gun compared to stock. Highly recommend the 3.1 w/ Afterburner combo, you won’t regret it.


I also opted for the Icarus Macro Elite Aluminum Grip instead of the Radian backstrap & magwell, the feel is awesome and the gas pedals make it really easy to control.

just custom build from scratch. buy the grip u want and all the other things and then buy the fire control unit. its cheaper in the long run. rather than buying a gun and redoing it. mine is a current project. icarus a.c.e grip 365 x macro norosso slide, radian ramjet afterburner barrel/comp, m carbo titanium firing pin kit m carbo straight trigger. all i need now is a recoil spring kit and the fcu.

 

…

 

I love mine

 

Getting some dry fire practice in…

 

How do you like that Icarus Grip Mod? I'm still eyeing the one by ShaloTek.

 

..

 

Got my slide and Radian A/R today for my 3.7" build. Blue Tyrant Trigger will go in when I pick up my FCU hopefully next week sometime. Got another black AXG grip mod and a set of blue LOK grips to compliment the TYRANT trigger (blue insert).

 

Looks good!!
