I seriously can’t decide: Glock 43 vs. Sig P365


I have spent hours researching both of these guns, along with many other single stack 9mm guns (I know the P365 isn’t really a single stack). I finally had the chance to shoot a few guns last weekend: M&P Shield 2.0, Glock 43, and Sig P365. I even shot a buddy’s Glock 26 but wasn’t a big fan.It might surprise you, but I discarded the Shield almost immediately. I found the texture of the grip to be a bit too aggressive, and it felt to be the snappiest of the four guns I shot, hence my dilemma: G43 or P365?To be honest, I left the range with my mind made up to get the Sig. The grip felt great. I love the capacity as I could use the gun for home defense as well (only able to get one gun right now). The sights are great; I was able to acquire them quicker than the Glock. I even think I shot the Sig better, but I keep being drawn back to the G43.Let’s get this out of the way, I know of the issues that have been reported of the Sig. However, after speaking with several owners of this gun and two different customer service reps at Sig, I’m pretty confident the gun will be reliable when purchasing a later model. But still, that lingers in the back of my mind...First and foremost, the primary role of this gun is easy concealed carry. I’ve never carried before, so I want it to be as comfortable as possible so I wouldn’t be tempted to go without it too much. I feel like everything is in Sig’s favor—especially sights and capacity—but I don’t know what my issue is with pulling the trigger on the purchase (no pun intended). Is it just the Glock name or reliability? I would definitely want night sights, so that would drive the cost up.I know this discussion has been had before, so thanks for engaging in the conversation! via /r/CCW http://bit.ly/2ZgfofG
