Hi All,
Have you seen the new Sig P320?
Based on the description of the pistol, I personally believe it will be the new Canadian Forces pistol. I believe they pre-selected the P320, then put out the requirements based on the specification of the P320. Why you ask, because there was a post which was sourced from a thread at Army.ca which listed the apparent requirements which were part of the SOR in 2012 or so.
Here they are, read them then watch the new Sig P320 video on youtube.
1. Full Size, DAO Trigger
2. Current NATO Service + 2 years
3. 9mm
4. Magazine >13rds, >15rds is better
5. Unloaded weight + empty magazine must be < 950g
6. Barrel must be 102mm or longer
7. Trigger pull must be between 4-8 lbs
8. Ambidextrous magazine release
9. Must not need to pull the trigger to disassemble
10. No magazine safety
11. No safety devices to manipulate
12. Must have an M 1913 accessory rail
13. Trigger pull weight must be consistent every Shot.
