SigP320 Safety Problems Continue – Resulting In Bans from Police Training Ranges!

[Lab4Us]

Um, because of the lawsuits. And the lawyers.

I mean unless you can think of another manufacturer who is currently fighting multiple lawsuits for guns that supposedly shoot themselves. Which is ridiculous.

i think we’re (maybe just me) missing communication connections. Why is only Sig the one fighting “multiple” lawsuits concerning the P320 when many other manufacturers make similar weapons, even Sig with their non P320 strikers, and those guns aren’t getting involved in as many (if any) such lawsuits? And what would stop lawyers going after those other manufacturers if people were reporting uncommanded discharges concerning firearms besides P320s? Ambulance chasers are ambulance chasers, they don’t care about the target (other than how much money they can make).

I just find it hard to believe that only people that buy or use basic P320s engage in such large scale unsafe gun handling practices and since that would imply there should be just as many people improperly handling non P320 guns, where are those lawsuits for the other manufacturers? Or where are even reports of uncommanded discharges from competitors to the scale of the P320?

And for the record, I didn’t insinuate they shoot themselves. I provided my theory on why the uncommanded discharges might be happening. Don’t claim I’m correct, but certainly claim it’s a possibility, especially given the P320s fully cocked striker when loaded footprint. Certainly more likely (I believe) to fire from bumps and bangs and never being reset before an event than a partially cocked striker model might be.

I’ll admit I’m not a believer in 100% absolutes, 100% of the time. Such as a “Sig P320 could not possibly ever be involved in an uncommanded discharge”. I would not believe that about any gun, even ones advertised as drop safe.

I’m not looking for anyone to agree with my thoughts, just thought I’d share them like everyone else.

Well, it was all started by female cops carrying them in their purses. Obviously not wanting to look stupid, they blamed the guns. The departments, not wanting the heat associated with having stupid cops, sued Sig. If it was Marissa from Festus Missouri, no one gives a crap, no lawsuits, we’d have never heard a thing about it.

One thing is certain. Those Sigs do not fire without human interaction with the trigger. It’s not a gun problem. It’s a people problem.

The same incidents/coments/controveries came up when the Glocks arrived.

Any striker-fired Glock0type trigger system needs to be protected against anything snagging on/going into the trigger guard/trigger area.

And ambulance-chasing lawyers will dive into any controversy to make $$.

From this article posted, You can see the trigger in this holster set up with the large gap.
Which leads me to believe a foreign object has access to it as well
