Here is better video compare both designs

Yeah that looks like a design that could not allow the striker plate to slide down.

My P365 original has older design, my XL and compencated-newer

That is incorrect for a firearm that is brought in for repair. As long as the same serial number is returned, it would not need to be DROS'ed and thus, the roster is irrelevant. If they replaced the firearm with a new SN, I would be SOL at that point.

Read this thread-a lot of good info

DO NOT IN ANY WAY DO THAT.

If you have a dealer send in ANY off roster gun; this includes one that was at one time on the roster but is now longer on the roster FOR ANY REASON, it will need to be sent back to the same dealer. Since it's an off roster gun they will not be able to return it to you.

is this a new law in sending firearms to manufacturer for repair now?

He is not. Below is the PC that provides an exemption for delivery of an off-roster firearm to an otherwise non-exempt person when it has been sent for repair.

I am employed by a large FFL dealer, and have been for the past twelve years (not to say working for an FFL means you know the law LOL). In my experience, and based on the law, this is how things work.

As I stated earlier, the same SN being returned to the owner who brought the firearm in does not require a DROS.

Penal Code 32110
Article 4 (commencing with Section 31900) and Article 5 (commencing with Section 32000) shall not apply to any of the following:
(d) The delivery of a pistol, revolver, or other firearm capable of being concealed upon the person to a person licensed pursuant to Sections 26700 to 26915, inclusive, for the purposes of the service or repair of that firearm.
(e) The return of a pistol, revolver, or other firearm capable of being concealed upon the person by a person licensed pursuant to Sections 26700 to 26915, inclusive, to its owner where that firearm was initially delivered in the circumstances set forth in subdivision (a), (d), (f), or (i).

No. This is incorrect information. See my last post w/PC.

As long as the serial number remains the same, the handguns qualifies for an exemption that allows it to be returned to the registered owner that submitted it for service/repairs. [PC 32110(e)]

Legal or not - the only thing that matters is the FFL you use and what their opinion of the situation is. Be sure they will hand it back to you with no DROS required (assuming same serial #) before doing anything.

I would try and get Sig to just accept the slide only - there is no reason for them to have the whole gun.

Great comparison. Just pulled the striker out; it is the old version. Going to call Sig tomorrow to see if I can coax the new version out of them.

Mind boggling to me that an issue would be so prevelant that it caused a design change, but when you call in reporting the exact issue that prompted the design change the customer service rep is clueless. Especially disappointing considering that most people own a 365 as a piece of life saving equipment that needs to work.

Absolutely. It's a good thing to know before handing it over to the dealer. I just wanted to be sure correct info was being posted.

Gonna try to get them to just send the part.

This FFL issue with Sig warranty occurred a few years back as well. Thought it was straightened out. I'm sure a lot of 320s went back for the "upgrade" and made it back safely.

Perhaps the CS person is new or didn't read the memo.

I sent them a P320 and also a separate subcompact upper during the recall. They provided me a label and also sent it back to my house (Fedex both ways). However with new policies from UPS / Fedex it may be harder or impossible for them to do that now.

We are being attacked from all angles...

thanks a bunch gents.

Afternoon guys,

I have been carrying my 365 for about a year now, but recently pulled it out of rotation due to consistent issues at the range. The striker plate at the rear of the slide is popping out of place while firing and preventing the slide from going back into battery.

This has occurred at two range sessions. After the first instance I took the pistol home, stripped the slide, cleaned and reassembled making sure the striker plate was properly held in place by the striker. Took it back out recently to see if I had fixed the issue, but no luck. This has happened while shooting a variety of ammo; ~130PF USPSA loads, 147HST, 124 +P HST, 124+P Ranger T, Hornady Critical Duty, 115 FMJ Fiocchi.

Sig customer service was no help. No warranty because the pistol is used, so they immediately told me to purchase a new end plate. I asked the rep if this was a common problem (perhaps his justification for trying to sell me the plate). He said "No, not at all." Then why should I just blindly buy a new plate? I can send the gun in to be inspected, however I have to go through a dealer instead of shipping directly to Sig because "it's a non-compliant firearm".

Anyone else had this issue? And if so, what did you do to fix it? I have seen lots of posts about it however, the "solution" is always that the pistol was reassembled incorrectly.

Op.if you don't get tbis sorted to your satisfaction I may be able to be talked into selling a full p365 complete slide for 255
