    Great gun! Shoots great too. I can't tell the difference in recoil between the +P ammo and the regular stuff. Haven't seen the all desert tan ones yet, very cool. I use the 10 round mag without the pinky finger grip bottom, just because it makes it easier to conceal. With a pocket holster, it is easy to carry stuck in the waistband, although I have the minimalist holster I use sometime.

    LOL, I would not stick a P365 in my waistband without something covering the trigger. However, I learned from the old head plain clothes officers back in the day, that a revolver with rubber bands around the grip (before pachmayr grips) kept the gun from sliding down your pants. I carried a model 60 like this for over 35 years and only remember one incident where I needed to reholster, and that time I just stuck it in my pocket. No better way to conceal a gun. Not the best tactically, I agree.

    Lightning, is your minimalist holster the Spartan or something else? Looking for a recommendation. Thanks!

    I have friends with a P365 and I have tried them. I just can't warm up to them for some reason. I still prefer my G43 with less rounds in the grip. And, really, a rail on a pocket gun?

    I'm happy to read the 365 is a great shooting gun...for a sub-compact or any gun?

    My sub-compact shooting experience is limited to the Ruger LC9S and I grew to dislike it's snappy recoil.

    So 365 - good for a subcompact i.e., not snappy or does it shoot like it's big brothers!

    Thanks!

    So I bought the Raven Concealment Systems Vanguard Kit that has both the clip and the lanyard attachment option, but I usually just use the lanyard. I bought it on the recommendation of a couple of friends. I like it, very small and seems quality built. I also bought a cheaper brand off of Amazon, the Head Down Kydex lanyard model, which is just a little bulkier, the lanyard is larger diameter, and it seems to be less precisely made, but it works fine. The only problem I have found is that the gun does move some in the waistband using the minimalist holsters and requires me to manually adjust it from time to time when standing up and sitting down regularly. I have found that if my pants are just a little bit looser it is easier to use the Blackhawk Size 2 pocket holster and just slide it in my waistsband. The rubbery substance on the outside of it keeps it from slipping and it is only slightly thicker than the Raven.

    Honestly, I am amazed at how well the P365 shoots compared to both the Sig 229 and the P320. With the 12 round magazine I think I shoot it just as well as the 320. Not snappy at all, especially compared to my Ruger LC9s, at least in my opinion. I can't tell a difference in felt recoil when using the 115 gr ball ammo and +P 147 gr hollow point, which is a pleasant surprise. I would highly recommend the gun for anything but uniform duty carry. I'm a fan! If you can handle one at the store and they will let you dry fire it a couple of times, I think you will know pretty quick whether you will like it.

    I'll echo this. I find mine very pleasant to shoot and was very surprised that that was the case.
