Yes...just holding it feels great and once you fire it.....MAN!! The feel of it is magical. Something just feels right when you pull the trigger. The recoil is less than expected. It just feels good in your hand.

With that said......the Springfield Armory Hellcat feels almost the same. I haven't shot it yet, but it's a gun on my list of "Gotta Have". I may not like it when I fire it, but the hand feel is very similar to the P365. It was built to compete with it. I normally don't like SA weapons, they just don't appeal to me aesthetically. But the Hellcat is one I like.

I have said this since I first fired my P365: Felt recoil is milder than my Springfield 1911 range Officer 9mm and the RO is one soft shooting gun! The Person who designed the P365 did so while wearing a "Pointy Hat" and waving a "Stick with a Star on top!"

I do like the Hellcat but it hasn't been out long enough for me to be comfortable owning it.
The P365 had a number of issues early. I'm hoping those issues have been resolved as many have stated..

They have been addressed and remedied. 100's of rounds through mine and no FTF or FTE.

That's really impressive for the P365 to be less recoil considering it's a polymer frame . 1911's are generally very little recoil because of their weight and being a full size carbon steel frame.

I loved the feel of it when I held my friends P365,it has a very comfortable grip and balance to it. I haven't given it much thought since then but now after reading this it's definitely next on my list. Best price I've found looking online is $510.00 shipped so not to bad but I've got to get my taxes done first and see what the damage is there. Even though I pay my quarterly taxes I had a better year than the last but I'm hoping the Ranger purchase will offset it. But you're right this forum can get quite expensive. lol

Damn taxes will probably keep me from doing any spending for awhile. I got a promotion last year and without thinking about the tax hit that came with it, didn't increase my TSP to offset it...probably going to have a big tax bill Sometimes, I hate being a grown up adult.

Thanks,that's a good price. I'll keep an eye out but I must refrain from buying anything for a little while. lol

Well that didn't last long! So i wanted another 22 suppressor and was just looking around online and found one with great reviews and at a really good price $205.86. Read a lot of reviews and called 3 different places and all had great things to say about it. It's not titanium/stainless steel like the one I have now,it's all aluminum but it's also half the price. It's not full auto rated but I don't care and you can only shoot 22 lr nothing else like 22 hornet or 22 mag.

@Msfitoy You said you'd like to get a suppressor but they're costly so this might be a good one to get into suppressors as it's not a lot of money and even with the tax stamp you're just over $400.00 Use coupon code feb6off2020 for 6% off ($13,14)

I bought mine several months back from a local FFL before Bass Pro and Cabela's started discounting them, paid in the neighborhood of $625 for mine but I still think it was worth it cause I carried it almost a year before prices dropped.
Check out Detroit Holsters DIX ( https://www.detroitholster.com/store/product/dix/ ) and Cross Breed Holsters Mini Appendix Carry ( https://www.crossbreedholsters.com/...olsters/mini-appendix-carry-aiwb-holster.html )
First is super deep cover and surprisingly comfortable.
Second is my favorite and although an appendix carry, it works as a strong side IWB holster equally as well...
