    I just picked up a brand new SIG P320 XFIVE DH3 and man is this thing awesome. I already had a SIG P320 with a Pro Cut slide and a Romeo1 Pro and its very nice but not on the same planet as this thing.

    I bought the DH3 new from my LGS Friday and never shot it out of the box. I added a Surefire X300U, a Delta Point Pro 2.5moa and a Gray Guns adjustable straight competition trigger package.

    The way this thing feels in your hands and shoots is out of this world. So fast, flat shooting and accurate. The Gray Guns trigger kit lowered the trigger pull from around 4lb down to 2.5lb with a new short reset and no takeup...

    After zeroing the DPP, this thing just drives tacks as fast as you can pull the trigger The flat shooting just brings that dot right back to POA after every shot.

    I have RMR, ROMEO's, Holosun. This is my first Delta Point Pro and I LOVE this thing. Nice big window, great glass, crisp dot.





    These 2 targets 21rd each rapid fire at 10yd.

    5 shots, 10yd standing, 1 handed left handed (Im right handed so my non-dominant hand). Thing just shoots amazing..

    Anyone have long term use on a Delta Point Pro??? I've been hearing lots of reports of durability issues.. I've been a 100% RMR guy up until recently and never had an issue with any of them.

    I got a Romeo1Pro last year for my P320 Pro cut and it's been fine but my least favorite..

    This DPP has such a nice big window, clear glass and a crisp dot. I love this thing. If there weren't all these durability issues reports I'd buy 2 or 3 more right now...

    The optic is great, the pistol is not my favorite but I am glad you are enjoying it.
     
    I don't care for the DPP, the brightness adjustment is just dumb. You have to put your finger in front of the emitter to adjust the brightness.

    I have the Apex trigger, Grey Guns and the Sig Armorer triggers. Out of the bunch I prefer the Sig Armorer, it is more crisp.

    I just recently bought a Grays custom slide, it does not like the Sig Armorers trigger for some reason. Haven't shot enough to diagnose it yet.

    I have it’s brother the 320 Legion with tungsten infused grip module and DPP.
    Stock trigger. It’s hard for me to pick up the 7MOA dot on my DPP.
    Other than that, it’s very comfortable competition pistol for the price.
    It seems as if SIG had done away with the Tungsten grip module and gone to stainless?
     
    A fellow shooting buddy of mine has both the DPP and a C-More. The DPP has an annoying secondary reflection in your view under certain sunlight angles. His C-More has a consistent clean view of the dot no matter what the sun angle is, but battery life is not great. I've looked through a few Trijicon SROs and their image is sharp no matter the sun angle.

    I didnt experience any of that on the 2 bright sunny days I had it out. Have to see

    They still make it.

    I'm running the Romeo 1 pro on mine. I shoot it fast, but it took a lot of time with the dot to get faster than irons.

    They fell out of favor in USPSA circles due to lack of durability. This is people (like me) who shoot 20K plus rounds a year.
     
    I seem to trend towards the larger dots as well. Seems a bit quicker for me during dot acquisition.
    Dot acquisition is only a function of correct index. Dot size doesn't matter there.

    Where larger dots shine are three areas in order of most effect to least
    1. Crisp edges. The larger the dot the crisper the edge is for a given brightness.
    2. Less brightness needed to perceived the dot well for a given light condition.
    3. Less visual "effort" needed to call shots and to execute smooth transitions. Not to imply easier to focus on the dot because one should never focus on it.

    I have never competed with a dot larger than 5moa, do you have problems at longer range or is it a non issue with a 10moa dot?

    I’ve got to do some more dremel work on my appendix holster. It protrudes beyond the trigger guard and interferes with me getting a master grip from the draw. My middle finger doesn’t like it.

    Non issue. 25 yd headshots are easy. A 10 moa dot covers 2.5" (approx) at 25 yards and 3.5" at 35.



    The partial classic target at 0:22 was about 30 yds away: 2A.

    Every time I get a failure to feed, I internally lose my shit :D.
    The first one was self inflicted picking up the gun from a loaded table start (pushed down on the gun pressing the mag release).

    The second one was also self inflicted: failure to feed because the optic hit the window frame before going all the way into battery.

    :cautious:
