How to swap the Fire Control Unit on a Sig Sauer P365 and P365XL

The video provides a step-by-step tutorial on how to remove the fire control unit in the SIG Sauer P365. The host explains that the process is the same for the P365XL and P365X Macro models and demonstrates using the standard P365.

1. **Clearing the Firearm:** The host ensures that the firearm is clear by locking the slide to the rear and inspecting the chamber and magazine well.

2. **Disassembling the Slide:** The takedown lever is rotated to a 90-degree position, and the slide lock is pressed down to remove the slide, which is then set aside.

3. **Removing the Rear Retaining Pin:** Using a punch rod, the host removes the rear retaining pin that holds the fire control unit in the frame of the firearm.

4. **Removing the Fire Control Unit:** The punch rod is placed between the fire control unit and the frame, and a slight press pops the unit up for easy removal.

5. **Reinstalling the Fire Control Unit:** The host demonstrates how to reinstall the unit by rotating the trigger end in first, ensuring the takedown lever is in the correct 90-degree position, and rocking it back into place until it clicks.

6. **Reinserting the Retaining Pin:** The host visually inspects the alignment and presses the retaining pin back in with the punch, checking both sides for proper placement.

7. **Reassembling the Slide:** The slide is lined up, locked to the rear, and the takedown lever is engaged. The slide is sent forward, and a functions check is performed to ensure proper reassembly.

8. **Functions Check:** The host racks the slide, presses the trigger, holds it to the rear, racks the slide again, and slowly releases the trigger, listening for the reset. The firearm passes the function check, confirming proper reassembly.
