Interestingly, Canik has a striker fired DA/SA.

“Is P320 one of the Sig decocker DA/SA actions?”

Nope. Striker fire.

Yea they’re a nice gun, but from a safety perspective they have had problem from day one. How the government let them be a service pistol given the issues let’s you know some palms were greased in that decision making process.

The accidental discharge.

Its not accidental is called a negligent discharge. Modern pistols can't fire themselves.

I’m not even sure the firing pin has enough tension on it to even fire in the static position.

Most modern auto loaders are not "cocked" until you cycle the trigger. There is a block between the hammer and and the firing pin that only moves out of the way when you cycle the trigger.

He grabbed the gun to pick it up and touched the trigger.

I own one. Hasn’t fired on me yet.

Better poke it with a long stick prior to handling it, as it may pop off a round or two in self defense.

My all time favorite is a Beretta 92. High capacity, anti-jam open slide, field strip easy as hell, accurate.

It’s a full size weapon. 9mm doesn’t have quite the knockdown, but the mag count helps.

That’s a helluva good eye for a man of 102.

What other tricks are they teaching you over in geriatrics?

The triggers awesome. 90deg break. Quick reset. Very nice. But then again, it’s all about how it feels to each shooter.

But, those guys story is ridiculous.

He was on the range qualifying. Drew his pistol and pulled the trigger a bit too early. And now not willing to take responsibility for what he did.

But i this isn’t as bad as the DEA Agent in the classroom.
