I've had one since before the military adopted it. I've been carrying it for years daily. It has never once went off on its own. I run with it, jump with it, have carried it in a small cross body bag. It has never just fired by itself. I have over 5k rounds through it.

The only time my gun has went off was when I pulled the trigger. Has your gun ever went off without pulling the trigger?

Most of the videos I see on YouTube are people who were fiddling with the gun, in some kind of physical altercation, or carry some sort of back on the side they carry. I didn't get the fix from Sig either.

I think it's crazy to use anecdotal evidence to decide to continue to use a gun with a small chance of accidental discharge.

No, mine has never discharged without intention. I have had it for years and have put thousands of rounds through it. I keep it clean and maintained properly, and the only issue I've ever had with it is some jamming when using crappy FMJ range ammo.

All that being said, I'm not trying to say there is definitely an issue with the P320, but there is enough out there to give me some doubt. Perhaps there will be a fix at some point, but until then it's just not worth it to me.

This also isn't happening with other guns. If you google any other gun brand and the words unintentional discharge, you will still only get results for the P320.

I mean, that’s quite literally survivorship bias…
