    Same. I work for the Department of the Army as a civilian security guard and I've heard from a couple not-unreliable sources that we might be switching to these next year. I'm not holding my breath but I'd rather buy one in case and take a small loss down the road if we don't switch than to end up without a personal gun to practice with. As much as I hate to give money to Sig...

    Former SIG Test tech and spent a decent amount of my life working on this project before it was released. I still don't have any form of P320.

    Also former Army Officer, and a current USCG officer. Supposedly the USCG is getting them eventually, with immediate priority going to the units I have listed on my dream sheet for transfer next summer...

    Wait, you worked on this and don’t have one? Any particular reason?

    You’re gonna have lots of folks wanting to pick your brain about the entirety of this project.

    I was walked out of the building a couple months before it was released. The ensuing long-term unemployment left me a bit... low on cash. I like the gun and I'm a huge believer in it. It just wasn't a priority purchase, until the M17 was announced. That's a piece of history, both militarily and personally, and supposedly my future service weapon.

    I wasn't in engineering, I was in testing supporting the engineers. I've posted plenty about what I feel comfortable talking about. IE: Drop failures, etc... Usually I just get accused of shilling or fan-boying

    The sound isn't the best but hopefully you can get the idea.

    Looks like maybe as soon as next month for the M17 civilian clone.
