For those with a Wilson Combat grip, what are the pros and cons? Does the WC have any affect on something like trigger finger position/placement? Any issues with how the magazines fit? If a gun ever needed to be returned to Sig for work, would the Sig grip have to be installed before returning? Grip texture/control? Anything else?
Thanks.

I put a WC grip module on my P365 MS within the last month. I've used the WC grip module on a P320 compact for a couple of years and like the feel. The WC P365 grip module has a gentle palm swell that the SIG grip module does not have; it fits my hand perfectly. I have no issue with trigger reach or position, I prefer the stock curved trigger. I also have the Armory Craft WC style magazine base pad that blends well with the WC grip module. All in all, the WC grip module is better for me.

My P365 SAS was a polymer grip module so when I ordered my Wilson Combat I did not get the weights but after shooting I realized for me I needed the weights to help balance it out. The WC does fill up in my hand better than my Sig one did.

As far as the trigger I had OEM curved and upgraded to flat trigger, theres probably no difference other than it felt better.

My 10 round sig magazines look and fit best, my Sig 12 rounds there’s a small gap but works as it should. I don’t really care about looks just need it to save my bacon when I ask it to.

I have the WC grip on three 320's and 2 365's. I went to them because they feel better in my hand and I put the weight kits in the 365's. I have a standard and an XL model. My 320's are compact and full size. Also have the AXG model which I also like. But, to each his own. It is always about what you like.

I put them on all my 320's. For me, I like the fit and I think it's the perfect amount of texture. When first getting one, it almost feels like it would be too aggressive, but I've taken high round count 2 day classes with it......and no abrasion issues at all.

I’m a fan.
I like the Wilson Combat grip module for the P356X/XL.
To me, the WC grip module seems a little bit larger than the Sig stock grip modules. Maybe, it's just the different configuration of the grip/handle part of the module.
The WC GM also has a more aggressive grip texture that, after carrying and shooting, I like better than the Sig, stock, grip module.
I did install the weights in the WC GM and maybe that makes a difference but I can't tell.
WC did a good job on their P365X/XL grip modules.
IMHO

Only downside for me was the slightly more aggressive grip took awhile to get used to when concealing IWB without an undershirt which I never wear in the summer months. Now that fall is upon us, the undershirts / long Johns tend to come out and it’s no longer an issue. Definitely not an issue on the rare occasion I wear it OWB under a sweater or flannel of some sort.

I've kinda read threads and people's thoughts on these recently. People stated that the WC P365 standard grip module is the way to go, if it's a bit too small. I found that I ended up going back (not from a WC module) to the P365X configuration. The P365X/XL grip module just feels like it was made for my hand. Didn't know if the WC would be worth it, but since I only have the standard grip module and two 10 round pinky extension mags for if I have to go to one of those wonderful states, I probably won't end up going this route. They do seem nice, though. XL Grip module for the win, for me. :)

On my P365XL, I went from...
  • OEM Grip
  • OEM plus Hogue wrap
  • WC
  • WC with extended Mag Release
  • WC with extended Mag Release and Talon Wrap
  • WC with extended Mag Release and Talon Wrap and Armory Craft Pinky extension
That's the sweet spot for my hands.....love it

Cons?? Nope! Improved grip purchase, and I also added the weights. Excellent fit and feel. Am still considering the Mischief Machine Omega also maybe for second gun. No compromise in concealability as some mentioned, and I am small-framed person. Carry IWB w/claw warmer weather, OWB cooler weather.

I bought one for my XL and really like how it feels but did not shoot the gun better with it. But I still like it despite not seeing a difference in how I shoot the gun. It isn't very expensive and if you do not like the way the factory grip feels it is definitely worth a try.

The biggest con is Wilson Combat doesn't accept PayPal, their website was hacked and I had to replace the credit card I used to order it after some fraudulent test charges appeared. I don't expect a company like WC to design and run their own website or be experts at web security but accepting PayPal would be very helpful for those of us hesitant to order online from small companies due to incidents like this.
