Sig P320 fires during drop safety test

[Aloha_Shooter]

$60 per gun... I think that might be low.

I'm betting people are not getting their exact slides and frames back.

Does it much matter as long as they are getting back working firearms that won't AD as shown on the various tests and that have the correct serial numbers as well as any aftermarket equipment the owners had installed?

All the more reason mine won't be going back. Magwell, sites, trigger, magazine release are all aftermarket.

That's certainly your choice but making a conscious decision to NOT participate in a safety recall will likely affect the liabilities if something DOES happen. What would be the problem if the fix included a new frame or slide but they put all your aftermarket equipment back on and the weapon you got back had the correct (same) serial number as what you sent in?

The Frame/Chassis is the serialized part of the handgun on the P 320, the slide I believe is serialized to the frame as well
Sig has had enough bad PR without them swapping folks slides, and grips around. I would be suprised if they didn't do these one at a time.

I'm not with the ATF or a lawyer but as the manufacturer who is responsible for keeping track of the serial numbers, wouldn't they be able to swap the slide and/or frame with the correct (old) serial number then destroy the old part?

I must be missing something because I don't understand why people are freaking out over THIS part of the problem instead of the fact the gun can fire when bumped. So many of us have spouted the mantra, "there's no such thing as an accidental discharge, just negligent ones" that I wouldn't have expected all the denialism about the P320's potential for ADs. Would we then classify any drop-fires or slide-bump fires by owners who DIDN'T send their pieces in to be fixed as NDs?
