A lot of shooters got interesting when the military choose the Sig P320, designating it the M17. Since then, Sig Sauer has steadily expanded the line, providing a variety of options for gun owners. Now, shooters have another X-series option in the Sig Sauer P320 XCompact Pistol.

The P320 X-Series is designed around ergonomics and performance, and the P320 XCompact is no different. It features a completely redesigned modular polymer XSeries grip. It also comes with a reduced fastback carry cut and a low-profile internal magwell. All of this make the pistol more comfortable and easier to use.

“The P320 XCompact redefines what a compact pistol should be by combining concealability with full size X series features. Through extensive end-user feedback, the P320 XCompact provides for smoother handling and optimizes the user experience,” said Tom Taylor, Chief Marketing Officer and Executive Vice President, Commercial Sales. “This expansion of the P320 series of pistols also adds to the unprecedented modularity, and depth of options available to the consumer already available with the P320 series.”

This new pistol comes with extended beavertail and high undercut trigger guard for comfort, concealability and recoil control. It also comes with enhanced serrations on the slide and a front X-Ray3 night sight, as well as a rear SIGLITE Night Sight Plate. Additionally, the XCompact comes completely optics ready, as it is compatible with Romeo1PRO, Romeo2 and Deltapoint Pro optics.

Sig claims that the P320 XCompact is the ultimate balance of form and function, and redefines what compact pistols should be. Whether or not correct, this new pistol comes with some interesting features from a well-renowned company.

The SIG P320 XCompact also won the Ballistic Best Reader’s Choice Award for “Best Compact Semi-Auto Pistol.”
