I bought a 9mm Sig Sauer P365X because it:
1) Has the new 90-degree flat trigger (like the P320 XCompact)
2) Comes factory ready for a red dot sight (I bought a Holosun HS507K X2 that fits perfectly)
3) Holds 12+1; two more rounds than the original P365's 10 rounds
4) Is small, lightweight and easily carried.
I then found out what I can do to "adjust" the pistol to my liking.
First off, I purchased a standard P365 grip module (in coyote) and a couple of smaller mags. Now, by swapping out the grip module, I have a smaller, more compact carry pistol. Cool.
To allow my big hands to grip the smaller frames easier, I added Hogue Handall slip-on rubber grip sleeves. (I did this for my Glock G43 and they really helped.)

Now, with the same trigger group I have two completely different 9mm pistols.
Then I found out I can add a manual thumb safety to the same trigger group. This is amazing.
If I don't quite trust the "no external safety" striker-fired configuration of modern pistols, no problem: buy the external safety kit and another grip module with cutouts for the safety.
Thus, with a single trigger group, I now have four different configurations:
1) My P365X 12-round original purchase, without external safety
2) The P365 10-round super compact configuration, without external safety
3) P365X 12-round configuration, with external thumb safety
4) P365 10-round configuration, with external safety
You can get grip modules in Black, Gray and Coyote colors.
All necessary parts are available directly from Sig, and at reasonable cost.

I must say, I'm impressed with Sig Sauer's modular approach to handguns.
I guess there's a reason the US Army adopted the Sig as its standard sidearm....
