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.

and to reiterate: that doesn't change the fact that the P320 no matter in what variation is an inherently flawed design. There's no getting around it. I wouldn't place much trust in it just because it's designated as "C22/C24" here.

Could it be better with fire control group parts that are milled out on a CNC machine instead of MIM'd? Perhaps, but I would still be leery & doubtful that it would have as long of a service interval compared to a Glock.

Also "Qualified Technician" doesn't mean shit, if there isn't any vetting to find ties of any kind to SIG in any shape or form, he can be some random hobo picked off the street for all I care.

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

SIG USA has a history of bribing, intimidation & extortion since Ron Cohen took over as CEO and the faults of the P320 & other products began to emerge.

If you can't put 2 and 2 together, then I don't know what to tell you.

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.

Ben has covered the SIGcidents a fair bit and mentioned a couple of people were offered tours but I can't remember which one specifically, if you want to shove your head in the sand and keep downvoting the truth then by all means. However you like your fish fucked my dude.

Jerry Miculuk's daughter ditching SIG should be a big clue to the fucking shit show the company is.
