My experience with the Sig P365 380 was significantly different than @higgybaby. I bought one for my wife and it was a POS. It was unreliable, difficult (for her) to work the slide and dang near impossible to fully load the mag without an Uplula. When it did shoot it wasn’t anything special. The handling and recoil was about what you’d expect from a lightweight 380.

I also own a P365XL and an 80X. Both are great pistols but I prefer the 80X because it’s a DA/SA hammer fired pistol. My wife can carry it with the safety/decocker off and not have to worry about the safety under duress. I will say that the P365XL is the best subcompact striker pistol I've owned and I’ve owned a few.
