SIG Sauer has just announced the newest addition to the SIG P320 line – the P320MAX. The new pistol was developed with the help of Max Michel and is aimed squarely at competition shooters. The pistol comes standard with many competition-ready features such as a red dot, steel magazines, and a fresh new slide appearance.

The SIG SAUER P320MAX is a 9mm striker-fired pistol optimized for competition at the highest levels, specifically in the Carry Optics division. The pistol is built around the TXG tungsten infused heavy XFULL grip module with a flat skeletonized trigger. The SIG Custom Works P320MAX slide was completely redesigned with custom wrap-around serrations for ideal side and top manipulation and is fit with a 5” match grade bull barrel, one-piece stainless steel guide rod, and both a 14lb. and 12lb. 1911-style recoil spring, allowing for an easily customized shooting experience. The pistol comes standard with a SIG SAUER Electro-Optics 6MOA ROMEO3MAX, and (4) 21rd Steel Magazines…enough for any competition set-up.

I have yet to break into the carry optics division of competition but right off the bat the pistol already has everything you’d need to compete with one major exception – flared magazine wells are not allowed in the USPSA carry optics division. However, the pistol would be sure to find itself right at home in the Open division. Aside from that, the heavy grip module will drastically reduce your felt recoil and help keep you on target, and the redesigned slide looks as if it will provide great purchase no matter where it is grabbed which is great for tactical reloads or clearing out malfunctions.

    I'm guessing it is a 9 mm.
    price?

      @Bob Sold out at this price, but they were $1600 recently at a couple online retailers. That's basically the going rate of an X5 Legion ($1000) plus the going rate for a Romeo3 Max ($600 vs the $720 msrp). The Romeo3 Max can be had for even less right now if you shop around. LE/Mil MAP is $424, and a quick search found a non-LE retailer selling for $488. I've seen Legions as low as $900 in the past, so you might come out ahead buying piecemeal in addition to getting to choose a 3 MOA sight if you prefer that.

    Competition without a single action trigger?
    Ok, if you are Jerry Mikulec, no problem, but for me, no, I would go down like a rock in water....
