Tell it to the cop who dropped his duty belt in the parking lot. AKA as shit happens.

PS There are now accounts of several other incidents and possibly people injured by P320 due to their not quite drop safe status. Soooo, something to think about.

Local 3-gun match here banned them last weekend unless they where 'upgraded'. They where worried about dump buckets and such. Offered loaners to folks that still wanted to play.

I do see a lot more pistols coming out of holsters during 3gun matches vs USPSA.

By the way, he's a member here, though he doesn't post much. As such, calling him a douchenugget is actually a violation of the CoC. He has a pretty thick skin, though, so I doubt your opinion of him matters enough to him to care.

I believe the upgrade will involve a bitbof machining, which, if correct, ought to be fairly distinguishable, even if it involves removing the slide to verify before class starts.

I hope that is the case.    I was interested in getting a P320 and if I decide to get one, I have no intention of buying  one that is not "upgraded."  

I really want to like Sig but this mess has left a bad taste in my mouth.

A number of people take issue with some things he's done in the past. At one class, years ago, he took a students pistol and tossed it for some reason (a one time event). He also was pushing something he called ShotFit, which was Crossfit meets shooting, where he introduced physical activity meant to get the heart rate going prior to shooting. One of the things he did on film was hang upside down from the overhead cover at a range and shoot at the target.

He's also not a fan of micro 1911's, as he says they don't hold up well to serious use, such as at a multi hundred round class.

-I would need more information about the pistol throwing to be pissed about that (did he have permission, was there a valid reason, etc...).
-Physical activity and shooting?   No problem there.  I sure as hell could use more of both in my life.
-Hang upside down and shoot at a target?   Unorthodox, maybe, but I don't see a reason to be upset at that.
-Micro 1911's (officer models) that don't hold up well to serious use?   I thought that was common knowledge.  

Apart from the first issue, and assuming he didn't have a good reason, he sounds like an interesting guy.

Currently as in he doesn't support Trump now or he was a Nevertrumper during the election and came around after the election?

I wrote openly about wanting Trump to be replaced at the GOP convention (I wanted Cruz).   I didn't think Trump would win and I didn't trust him.    I am happy to admit I was wrong and will gladly vote for Trump when he runs for re-election.

1911
View Quote
Please. 1911's need to have old/worn out firing pin springs and be dropped directly on the muzzle onto a hard surface like concrete. Dropped at any other angle, the gun will not fire. Should this happen the round will discharge at the ground. This is corrected by installing a FP/EP firing pin spring and/or the series 80 mechanism. When drop fired, an in-spec 1911 hammer does not fall...

The Sig? Fall any which way and BAM, the striker drops, firing the round any which way.

The first is simple physics. The second is a design flaw.

I'm a Sig fan and my EDC is a P938 which is fantastic. They dropped the fucking ball and need to own it.

In light 9f the seriousness of the issue, why wouldn't he, and why would a student have a problem with showing the instructor that the gun has been made safe? Afterall, the instructor's job is not just to impart knowledge, it's also to take reasonable precautions to mitigate the danger to students.

Most officer models have aluminum frames, about 1999 or earlier one of the gun writers wrote about one of the manufacturers rating their Al frames in the low 20k or something. Much asshurt at the time. Also the smaller guns are harder on parts.

None of the above except the Cory reference as has once in the Army.  No skill, no real LE or military background, no competitive background.  I would honestly say that Yeager has a better resume.
