All this guessing is hard; which one's the 6.5CM? :unsure::ROFLMAO:
I do have one 6.5 gaymoor case as I helped someone with load development on it.

I am surprised how much they kick. I thought it would be good for a girl but my daughter looked like it could break her wrist. She isn’t afraid of a 1911, but the light weight of the P365 makes it too much for her.

I'm wondering if they may offer the tungsten infused frames on other models.

The P365 / P365XL were specifically designed to be light, slim and easy to carry all day without noticing them (for the most part).
You could go to the ported version:
Which would have less recoil

You can also go to their custom shop website and configure one exactly as you want:


If you want something heavier, then step up to the P320 series and there are many options including ones with full metal frames, but they are a bit larger and well heavier.


But then you are carrying a compact full sized pistol instead of a micro pistol.

The trick is to find the balance of what you would actually be carrying around all day every day, at work, at travel at home, because a less than perfect pistol that you have on you, beats all the perfect pistols that you weren't carrying at the time.

I came along before the internet existed so never learned certain guns were to heavy to carry. I just can't get accustomed to 30 oz guns.

I've played this dance too many times. Weight is my first need in a CCW. Thin or small doesn't mean shit if it weighs more than I want to carry ALL day, EVERY day, EVERY where. My 1911s all concealed great. But I always had one side of my pants lower than the other. Even with a aluminum framed compact 1911. It was doable, but was noticeable after awhile. I ended up coming back around the Horn and going back to my LCP. It wasn't until the 320/Hellcat were introduced that I could justify a switch. Even those can be a little heavy. Outside belt carry and everything changes. For me.
 
Recently bought an X5 Legion for CO. Once the last shipment from Stoger arrives, I'll have about 30 percent more in parts and accessories than I paid for the gun. That just don't seem right, do it?
 
Never found that to be true with the UH-1, AH-1 or OH-58, TH-13T, or OH-23. Guess it depends on pilot technique.
Those little helos are the Mazda Miatas...strap it on, rage around, turn the engine off, full-auto to the dirt, whup whup, turn it back on, go make more "Vietnam sound," etc. A full auto in something like a CH-53 will be successful if you live through it, but the aircraft definitely won't. You can only practice them to a high hover/theoretical recovery. Large, fully articulated low inertia rotor heads are the Clydesdales.

Bud was a gunner on a MH53 that, uh, kinda, auto-rotated into Afganistan. Got the pins in his shoulder to prove it.

Just got back from shooting. It’s nice but, definitely snappy. I’ll have her hold on to my 1911 for the moment. A threaded barrel with a compensator might do the trick. I didn’t throw any defense ammo down range. Just some Winchester ball ammo to get a feel for it.
