How about a regular 320 mag instead of the 21? Do those fit?

Their website states X5 base plates.

Yes they do

I wonder why they state X5 baseplates. Hmm. Inquiring mind desires to know more.

If you post up picks and they drop free I am in on this bad boy.

I just joined the Sig family with a new M18. I want that module in tan but only if my 21rd mags will work RELIABLY. Can anyone confirm yet?

Same here. I will order one tonight as soon as I see 320 mags fall free. X5s are what they advertise as working.

Likely an oversight, and was meant to indicate the current gen baseplates that are designed to work with the X grip mag well, and not the gen 1 mags that would not seat in the X grips without modification. X5 does not to me indicate the legion mags with the proprietary machined baseplate of the X5 Legion, nor does any of the Wilson material released so far indicate that. After seeing what has been posted in this thread, I am totally on board and will be picking one up to go with my first 320 shortly.

Been thinking about putting my M18 in one of these. What’s the grip angle like? 1911 ish?

I think so. Points pretty naturally for me.

I'm really thinking about getting one of these in the Carry size and cutting the front down to work with my X-Compact slide. Make a true Commander/Centurion style 320.

Meh, fuck it, I ordered one Saturday. I like the X-carry small well enough, but my M&P still feels better in my hand.
I've wasted $70 on more useless things before.

I tried one of these my LGS has in hand a few days ago. Loved it. He hadn’t installed it on his gun yet but felt miles ahead of the stock 320 grip.

I also played around with one of his compact 320s he just got from CDNN. I was impressed.

I just ordered a 320 full size in .40 due to this. I was hoping I could have found a 9mm but .40 will do and the price is right

eta: Longtime Glock guy. This will be my first 320

I ordered a Carry with the intent to cut the bottom off to accommodate a compact magazine because I am too impatient to wait for an actual compact model.

Honestly the way aftermarket manufacturers have been going lately I’m a bit shocked they had a proper Fullsize variant with full-length rail from the start. If you had to judge by aftermarket grip modules, you’d think Sig only ever offered the Carry/X-Carry. This is the first time I’ve seen an aftermarket grip module in anything other than a Carry variant

Got my wilson grip in yesterday. Was very tight trying to fit the FCU in but other than that no issues.
The grip looks and texture are really nice. It is quite a bit slimmer than the X-carry small I have, which even with XL size hands, I prefer a slimmer feel. Must be the lifelong shooting of 1911's.
The only thing I don't care for is the same with the X-carry. They need to be like 1/8" or so longer, with the Wilson's magwell being more pronounce it just hits my pinky weird. Not a big issue though.

I’d just like to see more companies offering true Compact and Fullsize variants. It feels to me like the aftermarket manufacturers are trying to cut costs and split the difference between people who want a Fullsize or Compact grip module by offering just the Carry variant. Seriously, this is every aftermarket grip module I’m currently aware of;

- Mirzon: Carry only
- Icarus Precision: Carry only
- Polymer80: Carry only (prototype)
-B&T: Carry only
- Wilson Combat: Carry AND Fullsize

I suppose the Amend2 S300 grip module that converts a P320 FCU and slide assembly to feed from P365 mags breaks that mold somewhat, but it’s still not a true P320 Compact variant. Someone needs to come in and fill that gap, or the current aftermarket manufacturers need to just slightly tweak their CAD files and turn their Carry modules into true Compact and Fullsize options (with some preferably made of metal grumble grumble...)

And for the love of god, MAGWELL COMPATIBILITY PLEASE!

Ok, that does look pretty sweet. Personally I would’ve gone for the Fullsize full-length rail, but that’s just individual preference

"Carry" has always been they most popular pistol configuration. You see all the examples when people discuss the 19X.

Id imagine the numbers on the compact are dwarfed by carry and fullsize sales.

That said, more manufacturers should be doing compact since no one else is.

Compact is BARELY shorter than the fullsize grip. I mean really close in grip length. .2" is nothing

I think many police departments are going with the carry model too (including my local department).

My LGS guy had one on his M17 this weekend and I couldn’t put it down. Ordered one from the parking lot right after.

My LGS took a Dremel to his, inside right, top of the tungsten rod channel, to relieve pressure on the return/trigger bar spring

I bought a fullsize WC, and I don't even have my 320 yet. Go figure.

I received the Wilson Carry and X5 Carry small to go with a full size 320. I just HAD to try the Wilson but had low expectations since I love the X5 small grip so much. After handling both today the Wilson went on the pistol and it was not even close. I like how it feels more narrow and I like the grip texture better as well. Both guys I let handle it at the range had zero hesitation in saying they would order the Wilson immediately.

Mine showed up this afternoon. The texturing on the front and backstrap is awesome! The shape fits my hand and it lacks the square feel of the factory X-grip. I just need to figure out where to get the tungsten rods to add some weight to the grip.

Very pleased so far. I'll run out to the range tomorrow and put some rounds through it and see how I like it.

Really wish they’d make one for the X-Compact.

Mine came in last night. Test fitted a mag. It's super hard to insert mag then BAM it clicks in and rattles like I've never heard before.

If I put slight pressure on the mag release button, the mag slides in and out freely but my mags fit this thing so loose that I just can't stand it

Man, I'm a dumbass. That was me inserting the mag into the grip module shell without the FCU and slide on it. I just swapped my guts and slide over to the WC module and it's all normal now.

I would be interested in a 15 round version. I have a x-compact grip module but its too small in the grip for me.
I went back to my medium x-carry module. Texture isnt rough enough for me though.

I like aggressive texture.

Crappy lighting but pics with full size X5 slide and TACOPS. I took off the picatinny rail insert on the Inforce light, cut up a rail ladder cover, slide the light all the way to the rear, insert rail ladder to prevent movement (tight and snug), then tighten the screw up the light. If I didn't do that the light will be too forward for my preference.
