And wouldn't you know it----the MSRP is slightly below the Sig 365.

I saw one of these today at Academy with a price tag of $499.00. It is very ergonomic with high viz sights, all while holding 13+1 and not apparently any larger than the Sig 365.

This pressure on local FFLs is not only limited to Illinois; my pistol smith, an FFL licensee, is also feeling the pressure with increased scrutiny and regulations from the BATF.
