P320 - Interesting Testing Re: Uncommanded Firing Potential

[Lab4Us]

Didn’t want this to get buried at the end of one of the existing P320 threads where folks may not find it. Over on GlockTalk an armorer/instructor posted about some testing on their departments P320s - not good. If interested, you can find here, I think post 383 forward. They are soon testing a neighboring departments P320s.

This guy was a P320 proponent until they did this testing at his department.

Was going to reply to a post that was here concerning poster in my message above and his credibility; post that was here seems to be removed. Here is that GlockTalk poster’s profile, along with his currently operational website, where he provides some customization services to polymer framed pistols.

Yeah, that's a lot of activity he's had in his almost 20 years on GT

i dunno..i have a P-320, with the Wilson frame, and i love it.

of course, it is a range gun, not a carry

i too had a video of the connector where an expert smith(?) showed the problem of the earlier models and the correction.

I keep hearing mine go off in the safe without a mag in it. it's like it makes it's own ammo to fire.

I had an early model X-Carry, though never carried (too big for me to carry), and a couple X-Compacts. Never had trouble with them, but never carried them either. But I prefer to err on the side of caution and saw enough to tell “me” perhaps I should go with something a little safer. So no more P320s for me. They kind of sucked as range shooters anyway and have been gone just about 2 years.

SS P320 X-Carry - 19 Mar 19 - 18 Apr 23 - 742 rounds
SS P320 X-Compact - 9 Apr 19 - 18 Apr 23 - 885 rounds
SS P320 X-Compact - 15 Apr 19 - 18 Apr 23 - 790 rounds

i dunno, mine doesn't seem to suck at the range

I found the P365 and P229 more accurate than the P320s, at least for me.

Well apparently another Sig 320 discharged in a holster and was on video. A class in Tennessee yesterday April 12th

Here is a video from Achilles Heel Tactical that was doing the class as well as Ben Stoegers touched on it

And the 3rd is the Instructor addressing it afterwards

Now that's a keeper. Any gun that makes it's own ammo so I don't have to....
