Are these coming through massholia yet? I have a connection at sig that could get me a phenomenal price, but it of course would have to go through an MA FFL.

Nowadays almost every first generation pistol has some issues. Sig P-320 and the new Ruger Mark 4 to name just a few. The pressure on gun makers to produce their pistols fast and cheap so that someone might unseat the king, meaning Glock. If and when that does happen it will not be the result of sloppy workmanship or pushing safety aside as many gun makers have done in the past. It seems like everyone but the gun makers know that quality takes time and never comes cheap. Hey ! There are plenty of cheap pistols on the market. How about building pistols like they use to, you know like those all German Sig's. Years ago I bought my all German Sig P-228 & 225 and have fired thousands of rounds through them without a single problem. I wish I could say the same about some of the newer pistols I've bought.
Not on the stupid list here yet, not that I would care anyways. But if you're looking to do it the laze way, not happening.

I have found my dozens of NH Made Sigs to be among the finest firearms I have personally owned and sold at a retail level. EVERY manufacturer has issues, but saying that the company is systematically flawed is garbage.
IMHO sig has gone up and down in QC in the past decade or so. Several years ago a lot of the guns coming out of NH were pretty friggan bad. I remember
talking to a guy at an MA gun shop that was basically like "Yeah every shipment there would be at least one or two guns that were pretty much broken right in the
box, you could tell just by hand cycling the gun that it was never going to work." I think they've generally come forward a bit from back then.
It's not much of a push to suggest that nearly every major manufacturer has had some MAJOR issues in the past decade or so. All you can really do these days
on any kind of a commodity handgun is take it out and shoot the piss out of it to see if you got a good one or not. Not that you shouldn't do that
anyways, but the old days of opening a box and being bored by the reliability because of the high QC level on a product are pretty much long gone, unless its an
HK, CZ, Walther, Tanfo, or something produced in relatively limited numbers.

I hate resurrecting old threads but I just saw this:

For us non-365 owners, what are we looking at here?
I still don't think this thing will make me give the 938 a rest, but I will have temptations for the next couple years.I may have to give the 938 a rest when this p365 becomes available.
