Was at the local fun shop today and saw one of these sitting there. Fingered it and put it down, rolled back about an hour later as I had to make the purchase. First thoughts, ergonomics are great. Feels good in the hand, nice grip texture. Not super aggressive but not slick either. Under cut trigger guard and beaver tail are a plus. Trigger is pretty good, will be interesting to see how it breaks in. Dawson FO front sight and adjustable rear. FOUR 21rd mags is defiantly a plus. Going to grab some dinner and hopefully get it to the range this evening. Here is a quick phone pic.
Will follow up with an AAR when I get back from the range. Sir James... |

Nice looking blaster.
Handled one at Shot Show and dry fired a few times. I think your gonna really like the re-design of the lower frame with the trigger undercut and higher cut beaver tail. The trigger pull is better than my stock P320 as well. |

After handling the X-Five at the NRAAM I don't know why it's not the standard frame for the 320.

Got it out for a quick range trip last night. Only ran 200 rds through it. 100 115gr Blazer Brass and 100 124gr Speer. And ten Federal 124 +p LE rounds. No malfunctions. I kept waiting for the slide to lock back but at 21rds per mag it just keeps right on blasting away
 Would like to play around with the sight adjustment more seemed to be hitting low. Still very accurate. Points well, is balanced good. Threw an X300 on there for a couple mags just to feel the difference. The only thing is the trigger, now it still needs a few more rounds I think. It is not bad by any means but is not the best either. Time will tell. Over all I am happy with it. Will try to get it out again soon when I have more time.

Do you own a regular 320?
If you do own a P320. after shooting the X series model, is it worth the price difference? |

That's gorgeous. I have two full size ones on order. I'd like to get the X5 but since I'm getting two and all my stuff is 1911 .45acp I can't swing it.

Can anyone confirm if the X5 grip module will bolt up to a standard p320?
My 320's are dying for these. |

Nice pistol. I like the new grip module design and wish they would give that on every 320. The standard 320 grip looks to round and has no aesthetic appeal.

In the last few days I've handled 2, and both are having an issue with the slide going fully into battery on an empty chamber when slowly letting the slide release in a controlled manner, and I have to push it the last 1/8 inch. I've heard they are coming from the victory extremely tight. Other 320's at the store don't have this issue. Is this something I should be concerned about? Does this go away after shooting? |

No issues going into battery, no malfunctions while firing. The only thing that concerned for lack of a better word is when dry firing very slowly there sometimes is a secondary click. Not every time and not at all when live firing. As this is my first jump into a Sig Striker fired (have other striker fired) weapons it raised my eyebrows. I called Sig and the tech I spoke with said it was normal, the mechanics of their mechanism. Dunno will see if it goes away after some more rounds. Perhaps a trip to Grey Guns in the future for it.

For those that have the X, what do you consider the size of the grip? Is it more of a medium or small in circumference?

I've been waiting for a Shadow 2 for a new USPSA gun.....but am really considering this instead.
My only real question at this point is if there is enough aftermarket support to get the trigger where I want it. Don't want to spend 500 bucks to get it there |

Gray guns has what you need.
The factory trigger isn't bad. Mine has a little mush that I'm hoping will clean up a bit. I picked my 320 X5 up this afternoon and put 500 rds through it tonight. I had tons of FTE/stove pipe/ failure to lock back issues, that appear to be clearing up as it's getting broken in. That said, I haven't tried any factory ammo yet. My 124gr reloads may be a little light for this gun. Strangely enough, my 1911 loves them. I'll try some factory 115gr and see if it's any better. |

I would not of even brought up the fact that the gun jammed if it were using my reloads and try to even remotely try put blame on the gun. But that's just me. Shot mine today with WWB 115 and it worked fine. That being said, I'm really not liking the width of the frame. If it weren't for the fact that a small version was coming out, I'd dump it. |

Never even hinted that it was the gun's fault, just passing on my experience. If factory 115gr stuff works, I'll just work up a new load for the X5. That said, my 124s at 1070ft/sec should be plenty hot. |
