The SIG Sauer P365XL TACPAC is one of the more unique offerings from SIG Sauer, with its combination of high-quality craftsmanship, performance, and versatility. This state-of-the-art pistol, with the addition of the TACPAC package, is one of the best EDC firearms on the market for concealed carry. SIG Sauer’s P365XL TACPAC offers extreme concealability and has minimal to no printing. Plus, with SIG Sauer’s reliability, feel, and manageable recoil, it’s no surprise why the P365XL TACPAC is such a popular choice for carry.

Design and Craftsmanship

Considering the P365XL is a subcompact sub-compact concealed carry/pistol, its design is surprisingly adaptable. It is equipped with a double-action only (DAO) trigger system that features a smooth break, crisp reset, and a short trigger pull. SIG Sauer incorporated the X-Series Flat Trigger, an ergonomic upgrade that enhances the grip area and improves the shooting and accuracy of the pistol. This does not sacrifice any capacity but instead adds a more comfortable grip and shoot control. The P365XL’s frame also includes ambidextrous slide catch levers, external extractor, integral trigger safety, reversible magazines releases, and slide release.

The TACPAC package (Tactical Capacity + Performance Parts Kit) adds further appeal to the P365XL, as it includes a series of parts that turn this sub-compact into a “mini-tactical” pistol. The TACPAC contains three 12-round magazines, an extended slide stop lever, extended mag release button, an extended grip module, and an XRAY3 Day/Night sights. All these components are precision-crafted and made with top-notch materials, making for a variation of the P365XL that is nearly as reliable and accurate as its full-sized tactical pistol counterparts.

It is compatible with both flush- and extended-magazines, and offers an easy switch between them. Additionally, the P365XL TACPAC is equipped with XRAY3 Day/Night sights, making for easier sighting during the day or night. The P365XL TACPAC also features a distinct tactical look, thanks to its extended slide stop lever. The package also includes an extended grip module, to help with repetitive shooting.

Performance

The pistol is lightweight and easy to handle, and its 12-round capacity makes it ideal for concealed carry or EDC use.
