Frequently Asked Questions

What makes this Sig P320 X5 Legion build shoot so flat?

This custom build achieves a flatter shooting experience through key components like a Norsso CNC compact slide, a Parker Mountain Machine (PMM) compensator, and a proprietary Faxon Firearms barrel, combined with a DPM recoil system.

How does the DPM recoil system improve P320 X5 Legion performance?

The DPM recoil system utilizes multiple springs to absorb recoil energy, significantly reducing muzzle flip and improving the perceived flatness of the shot cycle, especially when compared to the OEM guide rod.

What are the competition implications of adding a compensator to a P320 X5 Legion?

Adding a compensator typically moves a pistol into the 'Open' division for many firearm competitions. This can be a disadvantage if you prefer to compete in divisions with fewer modifications or specific firearm types.

What are the limitations of the factory Sig P320 Legion optic mount?

The factory Sig P320 Legion slide is primarily designed for the Leupold DeltaPoint Pro footprint. Mounting other popular red dots like Trijicon or Holosun requires the use of specific adapter plates.
