Frequently Asked Questions

Were early Sig P320 models prone to accidental discharge?

Yes, original P320 models had a drop safety issue where they could discharge if dropped at a specific angle on the rear sight due to trigger inertia. Sig addressed this with a voluntary upgrade program.

Are current Sig P320 models safe from accidental discharge when dropped?

According to the speaker, current P320 models, if unmodified and in proper working order, are considered drop-safe. This is supported by the rigorous testing required for the California Handgun Roster.

What is the 'sport disconnector' for the Sig P320?

The Sig Armorer's sport disconnector is an aftermarket part designed to reduce the distance the P320's slide can travel rearward while still being able to fire, mitigating risks of out-of-battery detonations.

How can magazine over-insertion be prevented on a Sig P320?

Magazine over-insertion can be prevented by avoiding holding the magazine release while slamming the magazine in. The M17 and M18 models incorporate a physical stop on the grip and magazine base plate to prevent this.
