On November 30, 2023, Swiss manufacturer SIG Sauer announced the addition of a new pistol to its lineup, the P320-Xten Endure. Designed to withstand the toughest outdoor conditions, this pistol targets the most demanding users and marks the first model in SIG Custom Works’ ENDURE series.The Endure series from SIG Sauer, exemplified by the P320-Xten Endure, is a line of pistols designed to provide reliability and durability in challenging outdoor conditions. The series emphasizes features that enhance performance in various environments, particularly in adverse weather conditions. The P320-Xten Endure, as the inaugural model of the Endure series, showcases several key characteristics.
The total length of the pistol is 8.5 inches (21.60 cm), and it weighs 33 ounces (less than 1 kg), including the magazine, making it ideal for wilderness defense, according to the manufacturer. The retail price starts at around $1,000, which is about $200 more than the standard P230 Xten model. Despite its high price, the P320-Xten Endure has received largely positive reviews. The price may be a deterrent for casual shooters or those on a budget. Additionally, due to its additional features, the P320-Xten may be heavier than other pistols, which could be a drawback for some users who prefer lightweight weapons. The SIG Sauer P320-Xten Endure appears to be a robust and reliable option for those seeking a pistol suitable for outdoor adventure.
The P320-Xten Endure features a Cerakote-coated slide for maximum protection against the elements, and a laser-etched topographic pattern unique to Custom Works. It also boasts a 5-inch (12.7 cm) bull barrel for ultimate accuracy. The slide is optics-ready with a PRO footprint and comes standard with X-RAY3 day/night sights. The XSeries Endure grip module has LXG laser stippling for optimal grip in wet conditions and is chambered in 10mm, supplied with three 15-round magazines. Aimed at both collectors and outdoor enthusiasts, SIG Sauer is releasing this pistol in a limited run of 2,500 units. The modular P230 platform has enabled SIG Sauer to build a pistol offering excellent precision and all-weather durability.
