Overview of the Sig P365 XMacro Magazine
The factory Sig P365 XMacro magazine holds 17 rounds, but with the Tyrant CNC plus three extension, you can increase your capacity by three additional rounds. This modification is particularly useful for those who want to maximize their shooting sessions without frequent reloading.

It's worth noting that the XMacro magazines are also compatible with the Sig P365 XL model. If you have a 12-round magazine for the P365 XL, it will fit, although there may be a slight overhang. This guide will focus on the installation process for the XMacro magazine.
Tools Required
Before we begin, ensure you have the following tools ready:
1. A punch tool
2. A flat surface to work on
Step-by-Step Installation Process
Step 1: Disassemble the Magazine
To start, you need to take apart the existing Sig P365 XMacro magazine. Follow these steps:
1. Use the punch tool to push down the center piece of the magazine.
2. While holding the center piece down, slide the rear base plate forward to remove it.
3. Set the old base plate aside.
4. Remove the spring and push the follower down to extract it from the magazine.
Step 2: Prepare the New Spring and Follower
Next, you will need to prepare the new spring:
1. Take the new spring and attach the follower to it.
2. Ensure that the follower is securely in place before proceeding.
Step 3: Reinsert the Follower and Spring
Now, reinsert the follower and spring into the magazine:
1. Insert the follower and spring into the magazine in the correct orientation.
2. Make sure the follower is positioned correctly to avoid any feeding issues later.
Step 4: Attach the New Base Plate
With the spring and follower in place, it’s time to attach the new base plate:
1. Compress the spring by pushing it down.
2. Slide the new base plate over the bottom of the magazine.
3. Ensure that the base plate is pushed down firmly until it locks into place. You should see a dimple indicating that it is secured next to the metal ear on the magazine.
Step 5: Final Check
Once the base plate is attached, give it a final check:
1. Ensure that everything is locked in place and that the magazine feels secure.
2. You are now ready to use the magazine with your Sig P365 XMacro or Sig P365 XL.
