The SIG Sauer P365 AXG 380 ACP delivers serious firepower in an ultra-compact frame that conceals effortlessly while maintaining full-size performance. This optics-ready variant combines the proven P365 platform with the refined .380 ACP chambering for reduced recoil and enhanced control.
What Makes This Different
The AXG frame construction utilizes a lightweight aluminum grip module that provides superior durability compared to polymer alternatives. The optics-ready slide accepts popular micro red dot sights without requiring custom machining. At just over 17 ounces unloaded, this pistol weighs significantly less than comparable steel-frame options while maintaining the structural integrity needed for daily carry.

The .380 ACP chambering produces approximately 40% less felt recoil than 9mm variants, making it ideal for shooters sensitive to recoil or those requiring rapid follow-up shots. The pistol functions reliably with both standard pressure and +P defensive loads, cycling consistently through 500+ round test sessions.
