The Sig P365 is one of America’s best-selling handguns, and offers unmatched concealability, capacity, and ergonomics.

It’s a great handgun, and we’re not here to bash it. Only to offer a legitimate yet basic upgrade that can improve ergonomics, expandability, and aesthetics in one move.

The NineX19 Difference: Spotlight on Match V2 P365 Barrels

NineX19 specializes in high-quality parts and accessories for popular handguns (like Glock and Sig pistols). The Sig P365 is no exception.

Their Match V2 P365 barrels offer top-tier performance in a handsome package, as they are available in three finishes, black nitride, gunmetal, and gold nitride (titanium nitride).

Let’s start with that, even though it hardly scratches the surface (excusing the pun). Nitrided barrels are harder and more corrosion resistant than many other finishes.

They also exhibit greater permanent dry lubricity than other coatings, like phosphate, the result of which is that they are easier to keep clean without leaning too heavily on solvents.

Naturally, there is an aesthetic edge here too, as the bright gold finish of titanium nitride is quite flashy.

Now to performance. These Sig P365 barrels are CNC machined in the United States from stress-relieved, heat-treated 416R stainless steel.

If you’re not familiar with that alloy, 416R is particularly well-suited for precision barrels. It is a highly-corrosion resistant martensitic steel that is rich in chromium. It also has about .4% of manganese and molybdenum, increasing strength and wear-resistance.

These P365 barrels are also designed with 1:10 twist, broach-cut rifling, and deep-cut target crowns.

This rate of twist is ideal for fast-burning, modern propellants, and delivers proven performance with an optimal range of ammo weights, from light range ammo to heavier defensive and +P rounds.

That, along with the deep-cut crown, also deliver exceptional accuracy where it counts, making these barrels ideal for outfitting handguns to be used for everything from defensive applications to competition, and even handgun hunting.

The barrel in question has even been engineered down to the rifling. They’re made with broach-cut rifling; this process utilizes a tool with teeth that successively removes a small amount of material from the bore to form the rifling. It is more precise than button rifling and incurs less stress on the barrel.

If you look closely, you will also see that these barrels sport flat pentagonal fluting. Barrel fluting, while it may be cosmetically appealing, is fundamentally not cosmetic. Fluting improves the barrel’s ability to dissipate heat, not only reducing stress, but upholding a higher degree of accuracy, especially under periods of sustained fire.

Moreover, these P365 barrels are available in both threaded and non-threaded configurations. The threaded barrels also represent a substantial upgrade to the handgun given the fact that they give you the freedom to expand with muzzle devices.

Notably, the installation of a compensator to the end of a threaded barrel can help substantially cut felt recoil and muzzle flip, reducing shooter fatigue and keeping the gun’s sights trained on the target for faster, more accurate follow-up shots.

All-in-all, these Match V2 barrels represent NineX19’s commitment to ongoing improvements, and are the embodiment of a year’s worth of refinements and development.
