The problem is actually that the P320 does not offer any capability that isn&#8217;t available in a multitude of other pistols that are, for all practical purposes, indistinguishable from the P320. There is so much uncertainty about the gun now that it&#8217;s hard to imagine what reason any agency would have to choose it over the other options. Military adoption was a huge advantage for SIG, and a factor that probably let lots of buyers skip right over the testing and trial process simply by trusting military procurement. With the recent Airman&#8217;s death however, that pillar of reputation may well fall away completely.<\/p>\n<p>The actual mechanical problem with the 320 has yet to be specifically identified, and it remains theoretically possible that there actually isn&#8217;t a mechanical defect. But that no longer matters very much because of the growing tide of organizations rejecting the 320 and I think the doubt is pretty much permanent in many peoples&#8217; minds now. We still have doubts about shooting low-serial 1903 Springfield&#8217;s form a century ago; people still hate Ruger for its now-dead owners comments decades ago. Can SIG rehabilitate the 320? I doubt it. <\/p>\n<p>All the best firearms history channels streaming to all major devices:<br \/>weaponsandwar.tv<\/p>\n<p>The best firearms reference books: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.headstamppublishing.com\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.headstamppublishing.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/utreon.com\/c\/forgottenweapons\/\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/utreon.com\/c\/forgottenweapons\/<\/a><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.patreon.com\/ForgottenWeapons\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.patreon.com\/ForgottenWeapons<\/a><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.floatplane.com\/channel\/ForgottenWeapons\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.floatplane.com\/channel\/ForgottenWeapons<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Cool Forgotten Weapons merch! <a href=\"http:\/\/shop.forgottenweapons.com\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/shop.forgottenweapons.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Penguin Brutality patch and t-shirt available from Varusteleka:https:\/\/www.varusteleka.com\/en\/product\/forgotten-weapons-penguin-brutality-t-shirt\/81986 The problem of the P320 has evolved past the actual mechanical issue with the pistol &#8211; which still hasn&#8217;t actually bee identified.
