More problems with the Sig Sauer P320 and variants. It's even got a safety and they still go off. The Glock 19X lost to Sig because Glock refused to put a safety on the pistol.

2A news.

Answers why the guards checking IDs at Air Force bases suddenly were carrying M4 rifles on Monday

Ask me? All-in-One tools are never as efficient as the single right tool for the job. Only Management Dickheads and Accountants will disagree.

“...identity of the service member has not yet been made public, nor has the circumstances of their death,...”

It’s hard to form an opinion without knowing specifics.

Based on a report from another site, he placed the holstered pistol on a a table and it went off.

It's even got a safety and they still go off.

I'll wait for results from a thorough investigation.

SIG makes some remarkably high qual products, so I'll reserve judgement but give them the bennie of the doubt.

“All-in-One tools are never as efficient as the single right tool for the job. “

They are more efficient when you only have one tool.

“More problems with the Sig Sauer P320 and variants”

The article doesn’t give the circumstances of the death....kinda jumping to conclusions aren’t you?

[DesertRhino]

Not anymore. Their recent efforts are junk. Their main design feature is heavy and blocky shaped. Very overrated.

Why does our military insist on using foreign manufactured firearms?

What’s wrong with good ‘ol S&W?

[logi_cal869]

I was on the range and my sig suddenly wouldn’t fire. Something went amiss with the trigger mechanism.

I took it to get ‘repaired’, traded it in and have been Glock exclusive on sidearms ever since.

Sigs have serious issues.

[Seaplaner]

A reasonable question, my FRiend.

The P320 Strikes again....

“What’s wrong with good ‘ol S&W?”

Modern S&W autos are essentially Glock knock offs.

The question should be.. What is Wrong with the tried and true Beretta M9?

[VTenigma]

This is what happens when you pay your engineers the same as McDonalds pays a burger flipper. A few years ago Sig was plastering the radio around here looking for help (engineers, assemblers and the like). My son applied (he’s a B.S. in electro-mechanical eng.) with a very good resume’, they offered him $19.20 an hr. F-Sig

[Big Red Badger]

Wait.
.
WHAT?

[Red Badger]

Big but effective...............

[Big Red Badger]

On table And Holstered?
.
Yikes!

They failed to meet the bid specs ...
