I'm not very familiar with the Sig P320. I own several Sig's, but all are older models with DA/SA operation. The P226 & P232 are currently represented, but I have also owned P220's and P228's. All are perfectly safe and excellent tools. If Sig designed a striker fired pistol that is defective, it would be quite surprising. There are a plethora of striker fired pistols with firing pin blocks and trigger blocks that are virtually fool proof. The safeties are passive and all internal and can withstand tremendous forces that prevent unintentional discharges. There exists a potential for failure, however it is far more likely that people pull the trigger causing an "accidental discharge". Due to the highly improbably mechanical failure causing and AD, most experts do not use the term accidental discharge, instead we use the term Negligent Discharge. While it is possible for there to be a design flaw, if it went through extensive Army trials, it would be highly unlikely that they could have won the trials with such a flaw going undetected. If it did, then the trials must have been insufficient, fraudulent or corrupted. Perhaps this is the investigation that should be required.

Thank you! Great post
