Welcome to Sig Talk, and Congrats on your new P365!! The build date, or more specifically its packing date is printed on a label on your pistol’s case.

Is Sig Sauer manufacturing right now?

“SIG Sauer, Inc. operations in the U.S. will continue business as usual,” according to the company statement. All handguns used to come out of SIG Sauer’s German plant. Now, guns like the U.S. Military’s M17 and M18 are made in the United States.

How many generations of SIG P365 are there?

Officially, there is only 1 generation, but on February 12 Sig stopped production to address some quality control issues.

Has Sig Sauer fixed the P365?

SIG wisely stopped production and offered fixes to customers who already purchased the guns. They fixed the problems and began producing the weapons once more. This could have been disastrous, but SIG seemed to maintain their momentum, and the guns now are getting into high round counts without issues.

How to find the serial number of a SIG Sauer?

Serial number, date code, year, if each is present, then any pertinent information like import markings or a description of the pistol. I’ve compiled a fairly decent list of serial numbers and their related dates of import and/or manufacture, and hope this helps those who may be looking for such answers/information.

When did SIG Sauer start making proof marks?

It’s quite possible the barrel was made in 1986, the frame in 1987, and the slide in 1988… but that all the parts weren’t assembled together into a firearm and delivered to a proof house until 1989. Or it’s possible that all the parts were actually made in 1989, and then assembled and proofed that same year.

When did SIG Sauer start using the eagle as a symbol?

In actuality, the German Reichsadler (literally “Eagle of the Realm”) dates back to the eagle on the standard of the Roman Empire, and was used as a symbol of the Second German Empire as early as 1871… long before the National Socialist German Workers’ Party.
