the new P320 x5 .. absolute price gouging!?!

So you believe that an enlarged magwell and controls, upgraded sights, trigger, and longer sight plain are only a marginal improvement to the function of a firearm?

You said yourself the difference was marginal, not exponential. It seems people are finding them for better prices now so the luxury may be worth it for some. Some buy leather, sunrooves, nav and a turbocharger for their vehicles. Unnecessary luxuries are certainly not confined to the shooting sports but they sure sell well. That's business and good for SIG for their success. I'm just advising on the sucker play.

When did that happen? The difference is enough that after spending substantial time shooting a P320 I have little to no interest in owning one, but the X5 is something I'm considering as a future purchase.

The rest of your post is hilarious considering the country we live in. Following your logic we might as well dump all handguns (as unnecessary luxuries) and make the switch to pellet guns. Your tooth and nail defense of the bone stock P320 is commendable though so good on you for that.
 
Your right it was somebody else that said it was marginal, sorry. The rest of what you said is nonsense, however. The basic need for firearms is fundamental. The addition of unnecessary luxuries are not. As already stated. Perhaps use a ruler so you don't miss lines in the future.

P320 itself is overpriced. Think about it, if the grip is no longer a firearm but a part that can be purchased for $40 and the most expensive part of the gun is the slide, which requires milling and so forth and the frame, which is nothing but a few stamped and bent metal parts, how is p320 not $200 tops?

And that is how modern manufacturers are making their shareholders very happy.
