    It appears they’ve stopped production but aren’t being very candid about any of it. I’ll post links as I find them. Something about misaligned barrels, failure to go into battery, etc. hard to sift through the crap tho. You can google any firearm on the planet+problems and you’re going to find a plethora of complaints posted as if it’s commonplace.
    Ive had mine about a month and I’ve fired enough rounds through it without any issues to feel comfortable carrying it now. I’m using Hornady critical duty which is my go to for any of my pocket carry guns.

    Sig began shipping them again in February.

    Here are the replacement parts for the returned guns:
    Barrel
    Extractor Spring
    Safety Lock Spring
    Recoil Spring Assembly

    Yeah I’m aware of the original problems which are supposed to be addressed on all shipments since Feb. Was wondering what the latest info was.

    Nothing that I'm aware of.

    As said previously, and what you said, the issues have been fixed since they have starting shipping again.

    Someone posted they purchased a Sig 365 on 04/14/2018 which was made on 03/16/2018.
    Striker broke after 250 rounds. Going from my notes.

    Well bought one today with a 3-26-18 date, now looking for IWB holster and 12 rd. mag.

    Get out and run a few boxes of ammo through it and report back ;-)

    Mine has been great so far.

    Saw this posted today on another forum relative to a new Sig 365.

    posted April 19, 2018 07:22 PM

    I was having intermittent problems with failure to return to battery on one of the newer releases (2/2/18) every 4-5 mags on reloads only. Talked to CS about it and the said that they thought it was s recoil spring issue and had me send it in. Came back today (after only 3 days) saying the entire extracter group was replaced. I don’t understand that as I bought into the recoil spring theory but can’t tie battery failure to extracter.

    Rim of the case has to slide under the extractor as the case slides up the breechface. So if the extractor was not shaped correctly it could be snagging on the rim and binding. Sometime I wonder about gun owners, they really have no idea how these tools function. I guess as simple as they seem to me, guns are many orders of magnitude more complex than a hammer, and most people have no idea how to use those.

    These are the most recent things I've read about it. Sounds like they are fixing the problems and haven't stopped production. If you bought a "gen1", you're just a beta tester...
