That's a fair point, and at least regarding the recoil spring I agree with you. The next conversation Mark and I have I'll query him specifically about that, and see if I can pin him down to...

BH Spring Solutions Article; I found this to be both a good read and empirically (at least in my case) right on the money.

SIG's Customer Support has been great-they immediately issued me with an RMA and a shipping label, and subsequently are providing me with an interim slide cover. Whille actually acessing a human...

Not that we're likely to find out, but I'm very curious of the weapon's production date.

Some good points here. I agree with the magazine seating difficulties with 8 round welded baseplate magazines, but have not had such issues with 8 round extended tube magazines (all of mine are...

We'll see how mine comes out. Mine has held its zero nicely in the 16 months I've had it. Our LE rep got me a steel shroud to enhance physical durability, which is a nice addition-as I recall, that...

Appreciate the responses and advice. GJM, mine is actually a 2nd Generation Romeo 1.

JCN, Your suggestion is probably spot on, but I talked with SIG Electro-Optical CS, and they've sent me a RMA...

Crap. I competed with my P320 at an IDPA match on Saturday, and I realized early on the RDS had some malfunctioning issues; at start and on the first shot it was fine, but then at the second shot it...

Nice update-I just qualified with the G21. Not that the qualification course was unduly difficult, but what was interesting to me was that I actually qualified on it 1 point better than with my G19...

In my opinion,where the M17/M18 runs the risk of falling off its collective and individual wheels could be in protracted use in hostile environments with limited higher echelon support/resupply...

Concur-and that's why I prefer the V1.5 with a medium TRS-it provides the trigger pull resistance I desired withoug going overboard in the process.

None of us are thrilled about the ammunition shortage-and it's starting to have organizational effects also is what I'm picking up. Ammunition is available-but at increasingly skyrocketing prices. ...

Your post reminds me of a very illustriative video that Larry Vickers put out a couple of years ago, where first he had a gifted USPSA shooter clean a scenario, and then he shot it in a realistic...

I'll throw out another factor to consider with LEM: That the more receiver tailorable HKs, such as the P30, with its multiple backstraps and side panels may mke LEM more palatable, or at least a bit...

George, I don't disagree with anything that you're saying, but I think that the point of LEM is that it gives you an extended margin to stop the firing sequence-as well as also self-decocking. ...

I have absolutely zero issues with the paddles-althought I prefer the larger ones as offered on the P30 and VP.

The interesting "outlier" to the USP vs P30 discussion to me is with the .45 ACP...

I think the LEM is a superb system. I fully recognize that I simply won't be able to shoot it as fast as most of the other competitive trigger systems (and I'm certainly not the fastest shooter...

Or LEM...

Forecasted disposability/replacement is one thing; shit breaking at unforecasted times/situations within the projected weapon/component replacement/preventive maintenance schedule is another...

Additionally, I increasingly suspect that the P320/M17/M18 FCU, while technically a repairable unit, is in actuality being treated as a disposable/replaceable in toto item when issues with it occur. ...

I don't blame SIG for the M18/M18 testing process, I blame DoD. Both in the contract terminology and in the actual testing and vetting process. SIG was sharp enough to see how the way the contract...

FWIW, if you want a .357 SIG barrel from Glock, you'll need to get a Gen5 specific one-the ones made for Gen 3 and Gen4 won't fit...And to the best of my knowledge, there's no Gen5 .357 Glocks...so...

Great question. here are others here on p-f that are far more 1911-centric and 1911 knowledgeable than I, so take this for what you think it's worth (and I'm certainly interested in what others...

Wes Dahl of Privateer Leather has provided me with a magnificent OWB holster for the GSR; he has the proper mold for the older SIG 1911 profile (as well as the newer ones). this one is his Castaway...

That eminently makes sense. Disregarding the cloud over the P320's inherent safety, trudging through or being immersed to mud, sludge, water, etc, and then having to detail-disassemble in the field...
