Sig Sauer recently introduced the P320-XTEN Comp, an upgraded addition to the famous P320 pistol series. This compact pistol was designed to deliver impressive capacity for its size and what Sig is calling “exceptional shootability.” Sig Sauer is marketing it as an ideal choice for outdoor enthusiasts like backcountry hunters, hikers, and anglers.
P320-XTEN Comp Notable Features
The P320-XTEN Comp boasts several distinctive attributes that enhance performance and convenience within its compact framework, including:
- Integrated compensation slide for reduced recoil and improved control.
- Custom-designed XSeries carry length grip module for 10mm or .45 ACP P320 models.
- Flat XSeries trigger for a clean 90-degree break and consistent trigger pulls.
- Two 15-round magazines
- XRAY3 day/night sights
Improved Performance and Control
Central to the P320-XTEN Comp’s design and the improvements Sig has made are the slide-integrated expansion chambers, effectively mitigating recoil. They’ve paired it with a 3.8-inch bull barrel; a longer barrel should, in theory, make even its 10mm rounds’ recoil more manageable.
The introduction of the All-New XSeries Carry Length Grip Module shows a commitment to improving ergonomics, offering users a comfortable and secure grip.

They did mention that, specifically, the P320-XTEN Comp is not compatible with 9mm, .357 SIG, or .40 S&W parts and accessories – so we figured it was worth mentioning here.
The P320-XTEN Comp represents Sig Sauer’s response to the demand for a compact yet potent handgun that doesn’t compromise capacity or “shootability.” Especially with its array of features, it presents itself as a potential contender in the market for those seeking a compact sidearm that promises versatility and reliability. However, as always, for anyone considering a new firearm, do your research and test it out on your own!
