About the SIG Sauer P320
The SIG P320 is a striker-fired, modular semi-automatic pistol built around a removable fire-control unit that serves as the pistol's serialized component, allowing frame size and caliber modules to be changed. It was selected to replace the M9 in U.S. military service as the M17 and M18.
The P320 platform spans full-size, compact, subcompact, and X-series competition-oriented configurations, with numerous slide lengths, grip modules, and optic-cut options available across its production history.
Because the pistol's serialized part is the internal fire-control unit rather than the outer frame, buyers evaluating a P320 pay attention to which grip module and slide are paired with a given fire-control unit and whether they are factory-matched.

Valuation
What affects SIG Sauer P320 value
We do not publish a price chart. These are the characteristics that determine what a specific example evaluates at.
Factor 1
Fire-control unit and module pairing
Because the serialized fire-control unit can be moved between grip modules and slides, whether the components offered together are a factory-matched set affects how a buyer evaluates the pistol.
Factor 2
Optic cut and included plates
Slides machined for red dot optics, along with any included mounting plates, are a feature buyers assess separately from non-optic-cut slides.
Factor 3
Military-pattern configuration
M17/M18-pattern commercial pistols are evaluated for how closely they match the issued military configuration, including finish and controls.
Factor 4
Caliber and frame size
9mm, .40 S&W, and .45 ACP versions across full-size, compact, and subcompact frames are assessed within their own category.
Factor 5
Aftermarket parts
Replacement triggers, sights, or grip modules affect how original the pistol is relative to factory configuration.
Factor 6
Included magazines and case
Factory magazines, box, and any included optic plates contribute to completeness.
