Still won’t carry a Sig P320. Too many safer choices.

Looks to me like nothing in that brief statement says “The gun wasn’t at all responsible.”
Maybe wait until all of the info comes out before shouting “Sig is vindicated!”
Has the AF rescinded their stand-down of the M18? If not, why not, given this information?

In reply to Pete. M18 user here. Just a civilian and I chose the M18 because it has a safety. Loved the feel of the 320 but, the trigger is light so, I chose to check myself. IF I have a beef about the M18 is when concealed IWB, it can depress the magazine release and at times, I have to click it back in. Other than that, for myself, I like the M18.

Given the scant information here, it might be a case of breaking the “don’t catch a falling gun” rule.

I’m not a Sig fanboy – but I have completely disassembled several, and understand the workings fully – and I’ve been saying from the start, that it cannot fire without manipulation of the trigger… Many have been yammering about the youtube video where a guy puts a screw into the trigger, and becoming giddy over the fact that he pulled the trigger to just the point its about to fire and manages to make the sear trip- but ignores the fact that he manipulated the trigger, which by design unlocks the striker….. the short-sighted see a failure – look below the surface and you’ll see he just proved the design works…as designed. anyone whose trigger is fouled to that point, that doesn’t notice and loads the gun is incompetent.

Much conjecture here. We do not have all facts that should be discovered in the investigation. Were the Sig P330 without a reputation for accidental (notice I did not say negligent) discharge, there would probably be less of a reason to point toward the pistol. Let it play out.

However, this is a case of the proverbial “where there there is smoke, there is fire” and Sig may have to own that. I have been a strong Sig fan and own 2. I wouldn’t buy the P320.
