The SIG Sauer P320 Has Never Been Good

Yeah, the US Justice department, a place well known for its "folklore". You really are weird, man. And its 112 of them democreep departments now.

you didn't get that from the "official" US justice department, that's for sure, and again, you're quoting the most UNDERTRAINED groups, most of these people will NEVER pull their pistol from their holster for their entire career in law enforcement, other than the odd yearly mandated testing,if that.

Right. My POINT being that very, very few of us recreational shooters on CGN have ever"duty carried" a P320. So the entire "conversation" is rather academic, no? Near as I can determine, the P320 was designed for safe recreational shooting just as much as it was for "stressful combat situations". Handled properly in the former context, the P320 has performed just as "safely" as any other pistol in my stable....

I am not saying that the P320 is entirely without issue. The ability of the internals to move during rough handling is problematic and needs to be addressed. But handled properly (eg. safely) during recreational shooting there is nothing whatsoever to be concerned about. This business of people with P320s being afraid to use them for recreational shooting is ludicrous, and a complete over-reaction to the occasional problem associated with rough handling while loaded.

This doesn't take into account for a lot of people using the P320 in IPSC, where they do in fact holster on a loaded chamber.

From a psych perspective I just find it interesting that some have this need to defend massive corporations as though they are the latest adult you are aligned with. Now arguing with your new daddy makes me a bad person or something.

You still see this defense mechanism with people defending decades of Remington and their shotgun triggers, pharmaceutical companies after drug recalls and certain car manufacturers decades after famous events that got many people killed but are still forming a part of your persona and outward affectations to the world.

Here Wyoming Gun Project does some new drop tests with their modified 320.

The rear projection of the new style sear is removed so the simultaneous sympathetic movement of the sear and the trigger is prevented, also the spring itself is changed to one that adds +10% more force in the forward direction, towards the muzzle. This acts in opposition when the gun lands on its rear end or is whacked by the mallet. Its not clear yet if it is the sear mod itself, or whether it is reducing the sear weight by so much by having done this mod to it, that is actually having the effect.
