so glock has apparently stopped sales of its COA gun, the rumor being *somone* has to replace the m17/m18/p320 shitshow... www.usacarry.com/glock-coa-pi...

Just give MP and tankers semi-auto PDWs and/or carbines. No one else actually needs a handgun. They suck at everything. We've known this since the 30s.

Could also be DHS needing/wanting a bunch of them. I don’t think you can safely send ICE agents out with the gun that fires itself

To be fair, from the photos of the people purporting to be ICE agents, I don’t think you can safely send them out with a gun that fires at all.

Don't waste the money, just hunt down some older Tauruses.

The funny thing is Sig absolutely makes guns that could replace the P320, but by fucking this so hard they ensured they wouldn't be given the opportunity

SOCOM has had this solved forever with the MK27 Glock. I think the Glock COA guns are an obvious improvement on the MK27 (minus light). But honestly, the big Army should probably just go back to the M9 and call it a day.

Truly remarkable how SIG has totally fumbled the bag here.

the base design isn't even bad! it's pretty normal except for the modularity thing! i suspect the sear/striker assembly interface is just a teensy bit close on tolerance so if you get any wear in there you start getting discharge chance.

i mean, I think that does make the base design bad

you fix it by adding more meat on the striker assembly and a little less on the sear itself, is just a parameter change. It's not like a Type 94 or some of the early Czech attempts at a handgun where the solution is to junk it and start making Browning copies.

i think if sig had just checked parameters and done a root cause analysis from the start, going to an A1 model instead of the "trimming the trigger to decrease mass" thing they would have been fine

at heart the mechanism is very similar to the Glock 18

mine was intended for competition so i discussed smithing for tuning with Pete (formerly Detonics). he advised me to avoid the sear area - on a 1911 you can lightly stone/polish to improve break (I'm oversimplifying) but on the Sig he thought it would get dangerous
