All of the Power, 20% Less Recoil – The New P320-XTEN COMP from SIG
Luke Cuenco 11.07.23
Compensated pistols and firearms with ported slides and barrels are gaining popularity within the handgun market, and this popularity is well-deserved due to their effective performance. While they may amplify the noise when fired indoors, these features significantly speed up follow-up shot speed in hunting and self-defense scenarios by reducing recoil. SIG Sauer has just announced the new P320-XTEN COMP as their solution for those who prefer the punch of a 10mm semi-automatic pistol but desire greater recoil control. SIG says that the P320-XTEN COMP’s bull barrel and ported slide, offer a remarkable 20% reduction in recoil, making it more user-friendly when using high-powered 10mm ammunition for hunting or self-defense.

All of the Power, 20% Less Recoil – The New P320-XTEN COMP from SIG
NEWINGTON, N.H. – The 10mm SIG SAUER P320-XTEN COMP is the first carry-size P320-XTEN from SIG SAUER and delivers significant recoil mitigation without sacrificing the power of 10mm required for the backcountry.
The SIG SAUER P320-XTEN COMP is a striker-fired pistol chambered in 10mm AUTO with a polymer XSERIES carry size 10mm / 45 AUTO grip module, Nitron finished slide with integrated expansion chamber for recoil mitigation featuring front and rear serrations, a PRO Optic-Ready footprint, XRAY3 Day/Night sights, and a flat XSERIES trigger with a 90-degree break. The P320-XTEN COMP ships with (2) 15-round steel magazines and is optimized for use with the SIG SAUER Electro-Optics ROMOE2 and ROMEO-X Pro red dot sights.
The New P320-XTEN COMP is probably more suitable for those who want to use it as a sidearm during hunting season, or those who who just love to shoot 10mm pistols. The new P320-XTEN COMP has a suggested price of $949.99 keeping it around the same price as the previous non-comped iteration of the P320-XTEN. This addition should make follow-up shots much faster, making it perhaps an ideal sidearm for when you’re out hunting. \
“The P320-XTEN COMP answers the call of enthusiasts for a 10mm carry size handgun fully optimized for hunters, fishermen, and hikers. Beginning with the new carry size 10mm/45 ACP grip module, the P320-XTEN is a smaller package for all-around easier backcountry carry,” said Tom Taylor, Chief Marketing Officer and Executive Vice President Commercial Sales, SIG SAUER, Inc. “Additionally, through the pairing of the ported slide and Bull Barrel, the P320-XTEN COMP delivers a 20% recoil reduction and brings with it the exceptional accuracy and durability that are the hallmark of the P320 and XSERIES pistols.”
