Only good thing out of this p320 mess is my bank account is now safe from a payment for a p320 x5 legion.

It's like none of you even read the article LOL.

I read the article: An officer was carrying the newer version of the P320 and during a struggle with a perp the officer's holstered pistol went off, striking another officer in an undisclosed location. In other words, the P320 will still fire without pulling the trigger.

Reading is fundamental.

"MPD has not had any discharges that had been caused by a mechanical issue with the Sig Sauer pistol. The cause of the discharge from the incident that occurred on the 600 block of W. Garfield Avenue is under investigation," an email from the department's public information office responded"

In other words. They don't know what caused it. Hint: Glocks used to get blamed many moons ago for similar ADs with LE, many turned out to be NDs.

If the pistol is defective to the point that the striker can slip and fire the pistol, then it should be a full recall, not a "voluntary upgrade".

Kind of hard to "full recall" a gun if the owners refuse to send the gun into the manufacture for the repairs. I have several P320 guns and on the one that was affected Sig threw in all sorts of goodies to entice owners to send the guns in for the repairs.
