Videos tagged with Drop Safe Test

Honest Outlaw conducts a rigorous drop safety test on the new Sig P211 (also referred to as GTO), a 1911/2011 style pistol. The firearm is subjected to multiple drops onto concrete from waist height, including critical nose-down impacts, with no primer detonation observed. The testing methodology, which includes verifying primer functionality by firing, demonstrates a high level of authority and expertise in firearm evaluation.

This video discusses potential issues with Sig Sauer P320 pistols, specifically concerning the striker mechanism. The speaker, Ben Stoeger, explains a "punch test" that can cause the striker to fall on some P320s, suggesting variations in manufacturing tolerances and quality control may be contributing factors. He notes that not all P320s exhibit this behavior and that observed accidental discharges often occur during physical activity rather than when the firearm is at rest.
