I picked up an Sig P320 Compact not long ago. It was used but in like new condition.
I liked the look of the Wilson Combat frames and decided to get one.
I went with the black color because, I already have the Sig M17 and M18, and didn’t want another FDE frame.
The frame arrived today. It only took a few minutes to swap out the frames.
The Wilson frame was a little tighter fit, but not too tight.
I really like the feel of the new frame and hope that it shoots as good as it feels.

Really like the Wilson frames on my 365s, if it’s similar be ready to possibly lose a little skin on the front and rear straps till they wear down a bit.

I didn’t mind because I love really aggressive grips and shaving skin in my hand just means I need a new callus
 
That Wilson grip module sure looks great, they have a good reputation. The modularity of these P320s is awesome. I put a small X-frame grip module on my standard model and converted it to 9mm so that SWMBO would be more encouraged to make it to the range with me more often.
 
Gotta pile on here. Even though the 320 (and the 365 family) in stock versions possess excellent ergonomics, the Wilson frame/grip modules crazily improve the pistols. It's like magic...

I’ll say for the 320s, the X frame grip feels real good to me as well, it’d be a toss up which I’d prefer.

But for the 365/365xl it’s worlds of difference for me. The stock grip is just too thin for my hand geometry and the Wilson adds girth in just the right spots.
 
It's amazing how much of a difference that slight changes to the grip makes. The better a grip fits the shooter, the better one will shoot.

I know apples to oranges here. But I found the same thing when building 80% Glock clones. One of my favorite frames is the Strike Industries Strike 80 frame. Even though the Strike 80 was discontinued a few years ago, you can still buy the frame in a 100% serialized version from SCT Manufacturing. The Strike 80/SCT frame is more rounded than the Glock and Polymer 80 frames and makes shooting 40 S&W nicer in a G19 size frame.
 
I put one on my full sized P320. No joke, my group size shrunk by more than half, maybe 60%, with just a the new grip. I shoot it far better than any other centerfire handgun I own; on my good days it's like I'm shooting my Buckmark or MKI and not a 9mm. I keep thinking about getting the Wilson tungsten weights to see what it does.

A few guys at work are running P320s with Wilson frames. They are awesome shooters.

That being said, for just the shooting aspect, the all metal AXG frame just might top it. But it adds significant weight.
 
I have the WC Enhanced P320 with the action tune and it's just incredible to shoot.I also have 2 WC grips for my P365XL.I have the P365XL grip and the P365 grip.I use the XL grip unless I need to shorten it up for summer carry.
 
I just got a new in the case Sig M17 , as they issue with two 21 and one 17 round mags in two tone brownish . I certainly intend to get a Wilson grip module for it , I had to call them to make sure the one I get has the safety cut . The sights are OK on the M17 but the newer , bigger Sig sights as came on my X-ten are much better and I guess they will go on the M17 easily as I am getting used to switching Sig Sights the last couple years. I will put a straight trigger I took off my X-ten for the Gray Guns competition one and use the slightly lighter leftover springs I have. Now I don't have a 9mm P320 , and only combat type 9mm , so I guess a "gas pedal" take down lever to allow my off side thumb to hold the gun down in rapid fire and the Tungsten weights I also got from Wilson will be installed. The Wilson grip module has a better magazine well flare than the stock module and will be enough for me !
The M17 cost me $550+$20 Priority mail shipping from Gun broker with 0% using a credit card. $30 Oregon transfer fees = $600 . The Wilson grip module = $70 shipped and I got a gas pedal take down latch Was $55 with the free shipping I got from Sig - NOTE: be careful which Gas Pedal you buy , the Sig Sauer one is GTG but several other brands are inferior metallurgy and known to shear. Bruce Gray tested a couple and they were terrible when Rockwell tested.
So with the X Ray Three sights I removed from my x-ten and it's straight trigger I will be into a full on "Race Gun" P-320 for $750 . These guns are playing right along the CZ Orange and other $2000 guns and really winning top tier competitions, Of course the big guys in the top tier have custom slide /barrels optics in their classes . Speaking of optics the M17 is optic ready but a Holosun 507 Comp I have my eye on needs a very thin plate to mount.
