While I never bash people on their buying choices, I will continue to feel free to comment on companies and their practices. Especially the ones where I’ve purchased, owned, used, and dumped numerous of their product (at least 9) because of the way they treat customers and their continued refusals to accept responsibility for a flawed product. In other words, I had a dog in the fight to the tune of about $6k+.as i have stated a time or 5, my P320, is a fine gun, but it does sadden me, that i am in the minority of owning a gun, that obeys the rules of "self shooting", and just does not shoot itself off.
also, as a matter of fact, i own a S&W MP 2.0 in 45 ACP, and i had the choice of "safety or no safety", and i went with the no safety model....
i have no issues buying a gun with no safety, if offered.
those that i do own that are equipped with a safety are all of my 1911's....and all 3 of my CZ's (in 9mm).
my "principle" is......."buy what you prefer, just do not bash others either the people or the companies, that go against the grain"
and NO, you are not bashing anyone or anything, its just what so many others do however.
And with no intention to rehash a never ending argument, no one ever stated that ALL p320s were the problem. Ones sitting in safes getting used once or twice every six months at the range will probably never have an issue…mine didn’t over thousands of rounds (though I never owned a base P320 - one Carry and two Compacts). The majority P320s that DID have a problem were those carried daily, subjected to bumps and nudges getting in and out of cars and myriad other things LEOs do daily, with some who take their service weapons home likely not resetting their striker at least daily. Then there’s the matter of subjecting a fully cocked striker, with no manual safety, to that environment. I wasn’t part of the process, but I’m willing to speculate that’s why the US Military demanded a manual safety on their P320s for the front line troops (because of the environments they would be subjected to).
By all means, enjoy your P320s and any other Sigs you own. I’ll take your other advice and buy/shoot/enjoy what I prefer.
