Don't want to pop anyone's bubble, But
I have been a 1911 fan for over 70 yrs. My first Glock was a G19. Loved it. Just recently sold it a Generation two. Gen2's were actually Gen1 as that was first year for G19 but we are stuck with that nomenclature. I once owned a G23 but was a little snappy compared to my 1911's in .45 and .40 ammo was more expensive then than .45 at the time so away went the G23. I have a couple of Sigs both German a 220 and 225. I had a 228 and 229 that now belong to two of my daughters with both barrels .357 Sig and .40 S&W for the 229 and like you I bought a Sig P365. Great carry piece except I didn't like loading the thumb busting mags so it went away. Real pain in the butt when reloading at the range. I have two G17's both Gen5's that I am using in two MCK Micro CAA Conversion Kits. The G17 is a great pistol to use in the CAA kits. My new carry is a Ruger LW Commander .45 and I also sometimes carry a G43X a great small and lightweight pistol.The first handgun I ever bought was a Glock 23 that I bought at a pawn shop for $425. Shortly after I bought a Glock 43 for concealed carry. Then I bought a Glock range bag and decided that I would be a a Glock guy right away. Took them to the range and my brother came along who had a SIG P320 compact chambered in .45 acp. Shooting his SIG .45 felt nicer and less snappy than my .40 cal Glock. The ergonomics were better, the trigger was better, and I shot it better. I traded away both Glocks and bought a P320 compact in 9mm and a P365 that I still have and still carry to this very day.
When did Browning make the BDA in 45ACP? (or Beretta)Not to sound like I am running for the US Senate, but both are very good guns. Hard not to like a Glock 19 (Gen 4) ... but to me, I will take my SIGs.
Mostly due to familiarity. First gun I bought when I turned 21 (in 1978) was a Browning BDA in 45ACP. Great gun. Reliable and very accurate. In 2003, I bought a German SIG P220. Just as superb right out of the box. A few years back, I sold my Glock (Gen 4) 19 to my son and bought a SIG P225A1. Like my other SIGs, just amazing out of the box.
After hearing about the magic that Robert Burke (The SIG Armorer) can do on SIGs, I sent him my SIG P220. He made a great gun even better. Sent him my SIG P225A1 for the same. They went from really great guns to simply amazing guns.
People should own and shoot what they like and what they shoot best. I still love my 1911’s and my Behlert tuned Browning Hi Power. However to me, I am very happy with my SIGs.
For those P365 mags (or any mags for that matter) one of those spring-loaded Maglula Uplula mag loaders are the best. They will save your thumbs. I have 2 of them.I have been a 1911 fan for over 70 yrs. My first Glock was a G19. Loved it. Just recently sold it a Generation two.

1977-1980. The BDA was made by SIG Sauer at the time and they were rebranded P220s with polished flats.When did Browning make the BDA in 45ACP? (or Beretta)
Never knew that1977-1980. The BDA was made by SIG Sauer at the time and they were rebranded P220s with polished flats.
