Does the 365 go off by itself, have some remote trigger , spirit possession, or something else I'm not aware of?
I don't appendix carry because I don't like it. Not because I don't trust the gun in a holster.
LOL!Stumpy
If anything the 365s reputation is NOT going off (broken striker, dead triggers). Should be extra good to go!
*note for sensitive 365 defenders I am joking. My 365 worked fine.

I train. I have paid a lot of $$$ for training. I traveled for that training. I took the ego hit because I knew going in I am an avg shooter who needs to get better but I am still not carrying AIWB. The advantages simply do not out weight the negatives for me. I have spent more money on holsters, belts and carry gear than I care to admit. I have drawer full of holsters that will attest to the process. 99% of your post is complete garbage. 99% of it does not address the OPs question it is just some sort of rambling manifesto about how you choose to carry.
To the OP if you are comfortable with AIWB then the P365 should be fine assuming you trust Sig to properly design and manufacture a handgun that does not go off when you do not intend it to.

I personally switched to double action and have never been happier. And regardless of what others say, I can shoot it every bit as good as the light striker fired guns I own. DA or DA/SA will always be the way I go in the future. I still have light Striker fired guns, but never carry them any longer and they have safeties. And I know that just saying that Upsets a lot of people. Taking a risk just to say it.
It could be. The thing to consider is if the "spirit" decides now is the time to set off your holstered firearm, where do you want it holstered?Still could be Spirit possession. Just saying.
Congratulations, you are an extreme minority in the firearms enthusiast community. As a shooter who also likes going to class and training I’m glad you do too.
Sorry we cannot be friends today, because I stand by my assessment that most people carrying pistols for their own self defense do not train. I stand by my assertion that most of them are not willing to spend much money on good quality carry gear.
If the pistol carrying public at large actually did train, and buy good quality carry gear it would be nearly impossible to get a slot in a well known reputable instructor’s class, or to easily acquire good holster and belts. It would be like .22LR ammo during the last panic/high demand period. Obviously that is not the case, and hasn’t been the case. Right now I could sign up for several classes later this year with a host of awesome instructors (hope to be able to get at least one in this fall), they’re not booked solid for years. Same for good holsters and gun belts, plenty of good stuff in stock and ready to ship, or custom made within a week or two if we’re talking kydex.
Go to any chain store that sells guns, if they sell holsters they’re usually garbage like a SERPA or Fobus. That’s because that’s what people are willing to buy, the vast majority of folks simply will not drop more than $30 on a holster of any description much less a $100+ custom holster. The concept of a good belt might as well not exist to them. They feel good because they have a gun, but don’t expect them to gain proficiency or seek instruction.
We can agree to disagree about AIWB carry, I’m going to try it but only with a really good holster that allows for administrative handling that is as safe as possible. I’m also inclined to not do it with a striker fired pistol. When I’m wearing a pistol on my strong side hip like I do now, it gets uncomfortable in the vehicle and I’m going to try something else. The alternative is carry a smaller pistol that is harder to shoot well. I’m not willing to do that, I’ve learned first hand that shooting under the stress of a fight degrades effective skill, and I want the easiest pistol to perform with I can reasonably carry that holds as much ammunition or reasonable effectiveness as possible.
If sounds like you felt insulted by my last post, and I’m unable to control your emotions about this one. Please feel free to report me for hurting your feelings. The mods will be more than happy to ban me again I’m sure.
A well tuned DA/SA gun makes a compelling case for a carry gun in any carry position. Being able to plant your thumb on the back of the hammer and physically prevent movement while holstering is a safety advantage that shouldn’t be under estimated.

For you Glock AIWB users, the Tau Development Group Striker Control Device (SCD - also known as "The Gadget"). Not yet available for the SIG, though.

For those who may prefer AIWB, but are creeped out by a striker pistol AIWB (regardless of a Gadget) from Lucky Gunner

Well most people aren’t willing to train on their own, much less pay for a class, pay for travel to get there, pay for ammo, and *gasp* take the big ego hit of showing up and finding out that they suck at shooting a pistol.
Most will never even invest in a good belt and a good holster. A holster with good pull from the top loops, clips, or other belt attachment, that is also rigid and well made costs more than $30. So they won’t buy one. Good gun belts also cost more than $30 so they won’t buy one of those either. Thus they’re convinced that it is impossible to carry anything larger than a .380 or a J Frame (that they never train with ever) comfortably. They’ll also do questionable things like carry a semiautomatic pistol with no round in the chamber, because the Israelis do it. Never mind that Israeli tier 1 units carry in condition 1, and only the poorly trained conscripts carry a pistol with no round in the chamber.
So for that 95% of pistol shooters/carriers AIWB is probably a horrible idea. They’re not going to be consistently able to administratively handle a pistol in a way that prevents ND’s into their crotch area while holstering the pistol into their garbage $30 bargain bin holster that isn’t rigid enough to stay open at the top. Most will still avoid ventilation of their genitals because modern pistols are chock full of passive safeties, but some will not be so lucky. So they shouldn’t carry AIWB.... they probably should not carry a gun at all but that’s another argument for another day.
I’m probably going to start carrying AIWB since I prefer carrying larger pistols and AIWB is more comfortable with a larger pistol than strong side carry on or behind my hip. I’ll either continue to carry the VP9, or acquire a hammer fired pistol of some description to do this. A hammer fired gun gives me more control over the firing mechanism when holstering, which is more of a range/class/training advantage where frequent drawing and reholstering is a thing. Day to day it will be insert magazine, run slide, press check to confirm round in chamber, drop magazine, top off magazine, re-seat magazine, place pistol in holster, place holster in pants at 1:00 position, attach loops or clips to belt, secure any other daily carry items; then carry out the rest of my day.

You're young yet, nice looking holster.I still pee standing up.
P365 and Vedder LightTuck
It was real. Not the only time it's happened; there was just a video record of this one.Ive seen countless discussions on boards, including this one, about this incident.
Famous quote in there. "__it Happens". esp. with mechanical devices.
I think the video was real and that is one of the risks one must weigh..
