SIG Sauer has been working on a new set of features for their popular everyday carry pistols to make the just-announced Spectre series. These handguns, one based on the P320 and the other the P365, have factory stippled grips and a distressed or “battle-worn” finish on the slides.

These pistols come with a full set of SIG’s Custom Works upgrades in addition to the new look and feel. The stippling is lasered into the grip modules for a perfect job every time.

“This latest creation form SIG Custom Works brings an entirely new level of customization to our two most popular lines of pistols, the P320 and P365,” said SIG Executive Vice President Tom Taylor. “The all new LXG grip module is laser engraved in-house, and the custom pattern on all four sides delivers an aggressive, stylish texture for a stronger, more controlled grip. The custom slides are distressed with the exclusive Spectre X-Series lightening cuts, making the Spectre series of pistols truly unique, and a real standout for concealed carry.”

Upgrades to the guns include SIG’s flat-faced triggers, lightened slides with an X motif and like many other premium pistols from SIG, slides machined for mini red dot optics. Both have long barrels and slide assemblies for a little boost in muzzle velocities and bigger sight radius. They also come with SIG’s premium X-Ray day and night sights.

The P320 Spectre combines an X-Carry grip module with a Compact P320 slide and barrel, which measures in at just under 4 inches in length. The P365 Spectre is based on the P365 XL with a 3.7-inch barrel. Both are chambered for 9mm and have a standard capacity of 15+1 for the P320 and 12+1 for the P365 with flush magazines.

SIG of course offers extended magazines for both guns, as well as 10-round magazines for select markets. The higher-capacity magazines stick out the bottom, so while they’re not ideal for concealed carry, they’re great for reloads and the range alike.

Both are lightweight handguns, with the mid-size P320 Spectre coming in at 26 ounces unloaded and the compact P365 Spectre at just under 21 ounces, unloaded. Otherwise, they’re the same dimensions as their base model counterparts, except that the P320 Spectre is a little longer, at 7.4 inches, thanks to the longer slide and barrel.

These are nifty guns for people who want to buy a new pistol that looks like it’s been through the ringer. The distressed look also tends to wear a little more naturally, which is an inevitability for any everyday carry pistol. While SIG hasn’t released the pricing on these, it’s safe to say they’ll fall in line with other Custom Works versions, and carry a slight premium over the base models.

    Wait…. I’m gonna pay extra for it to be deliberately distressed by the factory?

    Yup, just as senseless as buying *distressed* jeans so you look like a Cowboy.

    What epic nonsense!

    And at that…. the wear isn’t even authentically addressed throughout the gun.

    How about just charging a lower price and throwing in a scotchbrite pad?

    As a criminal defense attorney for over 42 years I always carry a gun that a prosecutor can’t claim is the Death Ray of Skeletore Pistol only carried by professional assassins and thugs.

    Same for knives.

    I’ve seen it happen.

    If you ever have to use your pistol you know it will be seized as evidence after the fact. Make sure your firearm does not become evidence against yo because of the way it looks… it happens.

    Why? So posers who never practice can look like they do? What do we do next, start paying an extra grand for our F150’s and Rams in order to get “worn out paint on them so they look old and beat up too? Even though i collect guns, I don’t buy them as fashion statements….

    I have no problem with scratching my guns up through use, but why in the heck would I want to buy one Pre-scratched? It’s like buying jeans with holes in them or fake mud decals to put on a truck that never gets off the asphalt. The word “pretenders” comes to mind

      Fair opinion and to each his own but….it’s just another finish, no different than a desert tan cerakote or a camouflage finish. You paint your house how you want right? With current gun finish technologies available, why not put a finish on your gun that you like. That’s the beauty of America my friend……you have choices. 🙂
