It&#8217;s a complete firearms system.<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>SIG Sauer released one of the first truly revolutionary handguns we\u2019ve seen in a long time with the SIG P365. A new genre of handgun, the micro-compact, was born, and since then the rest of the handgun industry has been scrambling to release a micro-compact of their own as SIG churns out more and more variants of the hit P365.<\/p>\n<p>Today, we\u2019re going to take a look at one of the newest additions to the P365 lineup, the P365 Rose (the P365-380 Rose to be exact), a special edition of the gun that includes some accessories and extra features tailored for women looking to get started with concealed carry.<\/p>\n<p>Is SIG just pandering to the growing market of female gun owners, or has a major industry player finally released something that actually addresses the needs of women without a lot of firearms experience who are looking to defend themselves?<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s find out.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"517\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-review-feature.jpg\" alt=\"Sig-P365-Rose-review-feature\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-288861\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-review-feature.jpg 800w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-review-feature-300x194.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-review-feature-768x496.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-review-feature-696x450.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-review-feature-650x420.jpg 650w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\/><\/figure>\n<h3><strong>Not Another Pink Gun<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>When I heard that SIG Sauer was releasing a version of the SIG P365 designed specifically for women, I was immediately intrigued.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Being a woman, particularly one who has made a career out of educating gun owners, and also being a big fan of the P365, it was like a delayed Christmas gift when the January SHOT Show announcement was made debuting the new P365 Rose, and the overall Rose program.<\/p>\n<p>The Rose program is, in essence, a female-focused starter kit for women looking to carry a gun for the first time. What we saw at SHOT was a sharp-looking gun, with sensible accessories for a first-time gun owner, and it came paired with some training videos by the greatest female shooter of our time, Lena Miculek.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-profile.jpg\" alt=\"Sig-P365-Rose-profile\" class=\"wp-image-288863\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-profile.jpg 800w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-profile-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-profile-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-profile-696x435.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-profile-672x420.jpg 672w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-profile.jpg\" alt=\"Sig-P365-Rose-profile\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-288863\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-profile.jpg 800w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-profile-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-profile-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-profile-696x435.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-profile-672x420.jpg 672w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>A lot of what I do is helping new shooters learn to protect and defend themselves, particularly women (who historically get overlooked a bit by the wider firearms industry), so I was absolutely giddy with excitement.<\/p>\n<p>I was also nervous and a bit cautious. Bordering on suspicious even.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>So much of what gets marketed to women who want to get into firearms is just\u2026a pink gun. Just a pink version of whatever small concealed-carry gun is already selling well, with no consideration for any of the challenges that are inherent with a woman trying to get into firearms for the first time.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Would the Rose P365 and the Rose program be more of the same? I was very keen to find out.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3><strong>A Rose By Any Other Name<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>With the Rose Program, I\u2019m happy to say that SIG has <em>not<\/em> just slapped some pink Cerakote on the P365 and called it a day. There are two models in the Rose line at the time of writing, including the P365-380 Rose and the P365-XL Comp Rose.<\/p>\n<p>Functionally, the guns are identical to the base P365 models which is fine as far as I\u2019m concerned.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Both guns have stellar reputations and are as well-designed as anything on the market right now. Both are flawlessly reliable, accurate, easy-to-shoot and come with the increased micro-compact capacity that made the original P365 such a success.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Rose edition upgrades consist of some very elegant-looking rose gold accents on the trigger, slide release, takedown lever, backplate and safety, which add a bit of class to an already good-looking gun.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"517\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-controls.jpg\" alt=\"Sig-P365-Rose-controls\" class=\"wp-image-288864\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-controls.jpg 800w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-controls-300x194.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-controls-768x496.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-controls-696x450.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-controls-650x420.jpg 650w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"517\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-controls.jpg\" alt=\"Sig-P365-Rose-controls\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-288864\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-controls.jpg 800w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-controls-300x194.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-controls-768x496.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-controls-696x450.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-controls-650x420.jpg 650w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>There\u2019s also a nicely color-matched Rose edition logo on the slide, and a rose in the stippling on the grip too. All in all, the Rose upgrades bring a touch of additional interest to an otherwise fairly plain polymer-framed pistol, which is great, but that\u2019s not the whole story.<\/p>\n<p>The bigger draw is actually the Rose program itself and the accessories that come with it.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What\u2019s In The P365 Rose Box?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>On the accessories front, you get two standard 10-round magazines, one flush-fit and one extended, as well as a magazine loader, all of which are also included with the standard versions.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-box.jpg\" alt=\"Sig-P365-Rose-box\" class=\"wp-image-288865\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-box.jpg 800w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-box-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-box-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-box-696x435.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-box-672x420.jpg 672w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-box.jpg\" alt=\"Sig-P365-Rose-box\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-288865\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-box.jpg 800w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-box-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-box-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-box-696x435.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-box-672x420.jpg 672w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>With the Rose kit, you get some additional goodies in the form of 5 inert training rounds and a Vault-Tek Lifepod quick-access safe. The safe is perfectly sized, as it\u2019s large enough to accommodate the gun, accessories and ammo, but small enough to remain portable and easily fit on a nightstand.<\/p>\n<p>The last thing you get is, I think, the most important. In your box, you\u2019ll find a little note from Lena Miculek which is very sweet, but it also gives you access to a series of videos that go over the basic use of a firearm. This includes everything from safety, loading, racking the slide and all of the other little things that a beginner needs to know.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Miculek-note.jpg\" alt=\"Sig-Miculek-note\" class=\"wp-image-288866\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Miculek-note.jpg 800w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Miculek-note-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Miculek-note-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Miculek-note-696x435.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Miculek-note-672x420.jpg 672w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Miculek-note.jpg\" alt=\"Sig-Miculek-note\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-288866\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Miculek-note.jpg 800w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Miculek-note-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Miculek-note-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Miculek-note-696x435.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Miculek-note-672x420.jpg 672w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>There are shooting drills, advice on drawing and holstering, as well as important info on choosing a holster, all taught by 8-time world champion Lena Miculek, a woman the NRA calls \u201cThe world\u2019s greatest all-around female shooter.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She\u2019s also the daughter of Jerry Miculek and Kay Clark-Miculek, legendary world champion shooters themselves, and she\u2019s been winning major competitions since she was a child.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll also get access to the Rose Community on Facebook, which is currently sitting at a little over 5,000 Rose-edition owners and climbing every day. This group is full of women learning from each other and sharing information, and Team Sig, including Lena, is very active in the group.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>All of this gives anyone who buys a Rose edition P365 a solid foundation with their new handgun, a foundation that many women can feel a bit lost without. None of this will entirely replace an in-person concealed carry class, but that\u2019s not the goal.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The goal is to give women who buy into the Rose program the information and training they need to feel confident taking that class. To give Rose owners the foundation they need to feel comfortable with their new gun so that they can learn and grow as gun owners on their own.<\/p>\n<p>A few videos (more are in the works) and a Facebook group may not sound like a lot to someone who grew up with firearms or who already has some training. To the woman that\u2019s looking for protection but doesn\u2019t have someone in their life to get them started with firearms, it\u2019s a huge step up.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The real power of the Rose program is not the prettied-up gun, or in the dummy rounds, or the nice Rose-branded case\u2026it\u2019s in the community, and the training led by the most accomplished woman in the world of shooting sports.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-slide-back.jpg\" alt=\"Sig-Rose-slide-back\" class=\"wp-image-288867\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-slide-back.jpg 800w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-slide-back-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-slide-back-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-slide-back-696x435.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-slide-back-672x420.jpg 672w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-slide-back.jpg\" alt=\"Sig-Rose-slide-back\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-288867\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-slide-back.jpg 800w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-slide-back-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-slide-back-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-slide-back-696x435.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-slide-back-672x420.jpg 672w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>The Rose program provides an often-missing bridge between buying a handgun, and knowing enough about carrying one to be safe, as well as where to go to find additional training and advice on things like choosing a holster, legal concerns, and other info that armed citizens need to be aware of.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The gun is great, but it&#8217;s really the included access to the Rose program that makes the package so incredibly valuable to women looking to concealed carry for the first time.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But of course, we can\u2019t just talk about the Rose program without looking at the gun itself.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Overview of the SIG P365-380 Rose<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Specs &amp; Features<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Caliber:<\/strong> .380 AUTO<\/li>\n<li><strong>Capacity:<\/strong> 10+1<\/li>\n<li><strong>Overall length:<\/strong> 5.8 inches<\/li>\n<li><strong>Overall height:<\/strong> 4.2 inches\u00a0<\/li>\n<li><strong>Overall width:<\/strong> 1.1 inches<\/li>\n<li><strong>Barrel length:<\/strong> 3.1 inches<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sight Radius:<\/strong> 4.9 inches<\/li>\n<li><strong>Weight (w\/magazine):<\/strong> 15.7 ounces<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you\u2019re familiar with the standard P365 or P365-380, there\u2019s not a lot new here mechanically or functionally.

The trigger pull is a little long, but very crisp and with a quick and tactile reset.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-on-range.jpg\" alt=\"Sig-P365-Rose-on-range\" class=\"wp-image-288870\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-on-range.jpg 800w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-on-range-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-on-range-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-on-range-696x435.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-on-range-672x420.jpg 672w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-on-range.jpg\" alt=\"Sig-P365-Rose-on-range\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-288870\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-on-range.jpg 800w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-on-range-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-on-range-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-on-range-696x435.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-P365-Rose-on-range-672x420.jpg 672w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>The sights are wonderful, and I had no problem using them in low-light situations (even with my bad night vision). Groupings amongst the folks I took to the range varied, with the best coming in just under 1.5 inches at 15 yards.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Everyone, myself included, found the recoil to be super manageable, even by .380 standards. The aggressive stippling helps you get a very positive grip, which is always nice on such a small gun. And hey, the stippling is a laser-engraved Rose which, while not a practical benefit, is very sharp looking.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-grip-stippling.jpg\" alt=\"Sig-Rose-grip-stippling\" class=\"wp-image-288871\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-grip-stippling.jpg 800w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-grip-stippling-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-grip-stippling-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-grip-stippling-696x435.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-grip-stippling-672x420.jpg 672w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-grip-stippling.jpg\" alt=\"Sig-Rose-grip-stippling\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-288871\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-grip-stippling.jpg 800w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-grip-stippling-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-grip-stippling-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-grip-stippling-696x435.jpg 696w, https:\/\/gundigest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Sig-Rose-grip-stippling-672x420.jpg 672w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>The one issue we did have is that the magazine springs were a little stiff at first, but leaving them loaded overnight fixed the issue completely.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I have seen some people in the Rose groups have issues with \u201climp wristing\u201d (not really an accurate term) causing ejection issues, but this is more an issue with a new shooter and the .380 cartridge itself than any issue with the gun.<\/p>\n<p>If you find your Rose not ejecting with authority, make sure it\u2019s lubed correctly, and then check your grip to make sure the gun is held securely.
