So it actually depends on the P320, the issue with the going off comes from differences in parts tolerances primarily with parts sourced from Indian factories as I understand it. The CAF ones have no such parts and are thus not prone to the issue but people think P320 = P320. The issue with this case specifically is the member in question used an unapproved custom holster for the P320 that allows their finger to be in the trigger guard while holstered. I doubt they will win the case as the gun would’ve been inspected by a qualified technician and any gun issue would’ve been flagged.

None of what you said changes the fact a qualified technician inspected the pistol and found no mechanical faults or reasons for it to just discharge and ruled it a user error. The issue with the sig is 100% due to the trigger bar and striker not being machined correct to tolerances due to poor quality control that doesn’t affect the C22. See Hilton Hicks report.

If you don’t trust a Weapons Technician trained on the C22 platform with the sig technical books idk what to tell ya 🤷🏼‍♂️ time will tell what happens with the law suit but I bet it gets tossed

A qualified tech looked at my p320 before it blew up. I know of 4 people who have blown up handguns. All were p320s.

Ever occur to you that the qualified tech doesn't know what to look for? Just like the mechanic that could not diagnose my car?

Any source for that? Tried to google it but can’t find anything at all about Sig Bribery except a Reddit post from a meme subreddit which I wouldn’t take as gospel at all.
