This review of the Sig Sauer P365 NRA Edition focuses on its unique coyote tan color and the included accessories. While the firearm itself is a standard P365, the reviewer highlights its compact size, ease of concealment, and comparison to other popular subcompacts like the Glock 26, Glock 48, and Smith & Wesson Shield. Key points include the PVD coating's susceptibility to wear and the grip texture's potential for discomfort during concealed carry.

Quick Summary

The Sig Sauer P365 NRA Edition offers superior concealability compared to the Glock 26 and Smith & Wesson Shield due to its compact size. However, its PVD coyote tan finish is prone to scratching, and the aggressive grip texture can cause discomfort during concealed carry without an undershirt.
