Glock 40 and maybe a Vortex Venom red dotfor me. I really want a 10mm with a 6" bbl and 15rds.

I upvoted and agree... but as far as I know the X5 Legion only comes chambered for 9mm, correct?

I was just reading on it about 10 minutes ago and love the concept of infusing tungsten into the polymer frame to improve the weight and balance.

If they begin chambering it for 10mm or .45acp, I'll have found my next everyday primary carry.

the regular P320 frame is a piece of garbage and feels like something you would put on a Walmart toy gun

the X5 Legion frame is a work of art. feels robust and perfectly balanced

That would be one more heavy arse EDC.

That would be 3.5-4 lbs loaded.

But that would likely be my choice as well.

Either that or buy a frame and slide for an STI 2011 and build it out.

Had 1 lined up back in 2014 for $900. Was buying it from a WWII vet that owned a few. As soon as I got ready to buy my now ex wife moved out and left me with all the bills. Sadly I couldn’t justify buying it then and now I wish I could.

I would have said this as well, but I don't think you can find one for a grand.

Probably not but if I'm willing to drop a grand on a pistol, I can come up with 2 hundred more dollars
