I'm just going to copy and paste this reply of mine from the last 320 thread that I was in...


It would be nice if people could rub two brain cells together and think about this without emotion because their gun didn't win a .mil trial.

The 320 Pro (no safety) has been issued at an SMU for ~ 5 years and used in various configurations. If you know anything about how they select weapons, they don't issue shit because it is new or "cool". No one else in the world has the budget to test weapons as extensively as they do and they have to meet pretty stringent requirements.

Now, think about what they subject their pistols to. They are in and out of vehicles, helicopters, cruising around in SxS, riding dirt bikes and banging them on all kinds of shit. Do you think that command would issue a pistol that "just goes off" and risk injuring guys that they have invested millions of dollars in? Do you think they will risk a mission that is handed down from the highest levels of the government over a pistol that is faulty? How about doing an offset infil where they hike in for miles and a guy takes a fall and his gun "just goes off" compromising his team and the operation over a pistol? Yeah, it isn't happening. If the pistols "just went off" they would have discovered it by now and shit canned them.

What the guys at that level are, and 87% of cops aren't? Pros. I have said it many times here, that equipment management is an issue and the vast majority of cops suck at it. Most don't give a shit about their gear, guns, if a jacket pull is hanging or a piece of gear that they don't need is impeding their draw etc. It is a constant battle trying to get people squared away.

Remember the JTF-2 investigation from 4-5 years ago that "the gun just went off"? It was discovered the operator was using a holster that wasn't made for the 320?  Yeah well, they are issued them now with good success.

It is a DEVGRU operators issued pistol. They obviously take advantage of the modularity of the 320. The still/photo was part of a massive "JSOC leak" a few months ago.

Despite what a few naysayers post here, the modularity of the platform is used often. For example this SF guys 320 at the end of this video.

IF it's actually a gun failure, I would think it would have to be some kind of severe tolerance stacking or combination of out of spec parts.  Otherwise I think we'd already have evidence of multiple catastrophic parts breakages that would cause it.

It would depend on if it’s an early civilian version, a military version, a manual safety version, or a post voluntary upgrade version

The dangerous ones are the early civilian guns lacking a manual safety

SIG said if you have one between X serial number range send it in and we will fix it. That was for 320's made before August of 2017. 7 years ago.

That's a hell of a lot more than Glock did with their pile of shit G22's kabooming and 9mm's breaking slide rails off.

We get it bro, you don't care for the 320.

Cops have been NDing since forever. Doesn't matter if it is a DA revolver, Beretta 92 or a Glock with a dingus.

Did you read it? There's no physical proof the guy didn't pull the trigger just that it fell out of his truck and discharged and killed the other guy. They didn't even go into any detail how a P938 or that specific one was defective in a way that it had a ND when dropped. Big chuck of that suit is negligence against the owner too.

The foregoing assumes that Caleb Boutwell did not pull the trigger on the
pistol. That is what Caleb Boutwell told law enforcement officers immediately
after the incident occurred. One of two things is true: Either Caleb Boutwell did
not pull the trigger, in which event Sig Sauer is clearly liable, or Caleb Boutwell

3

did pull the trigger, in which event Caleb Boutwell is liable. It is also true that
even if the trigger was not pulled by Caleb Boutwell, he was nonetheless negligent,
as outlined in Count Five, below.
