Would you be willing to back up your statement by replicating the video you're basing it on with your own gun? Please drive a screw into the frame gap in front of the trigger on your gun of choice, drive the screw into the trigger to press it backwards, point the gun at your brain, and then rattle/knock/pull/press the crap out of that gun, to prove your point. Please don't. That's not how "safe" shooters work.

I agree that wedging a screw against the trigger is a head scratcher at first, but when it is used to demonstrate that a gun prematurely goes off less than 1mm into its normal 4-5mm of trigger movement after the slack is taken up (like in the WGP video), that is irrefutable evidence that the gun is problematic.

I have not seen evidence confirming this on the current design in any testing, and I've been looking - very actively. This was absolutely true of the original commercial design with the "adverse trigger." There have been multiple reports, now, claiming to damningly confirm "it goes off on its own!" I carefully review every one I find with an open mind. In every case, they seem to be conducted and consumed by people lacking critical thinking skills - including the flawed initial FBI report (the FBI admitted to flawed testing and released a subsequent report). Every single test resulting in "repeatable" uncommanded discharges involved sticking something in front of the trigger, to move the trigger rearward, prior do doing some manipulation or other to the weapon to induce a discharge. Please, fellow gunners and instructors, who will be the first to raise their hand and die on the hill of, "Yes, I tell my shooters that if they press the trigger to the rear and the gun goes off, well, that's the gun's fault."

Factually incorrect: DHS/ICE just extended the P320 contract for another two years. Also, the report linked above does not tell the whole story, here. Any inclusion of this report should also mention that the testing informing this report was done with three critical problems in its methodology: 1) using a screw to pre-load the trigger, pressing it to the rear 2) cutting a window in the backplate of the FCM, destabilizing the sear springs and allowing them to become unseated under recoil. 3) using a punch to press the sear down, defeating not only the primary sear but also the secondary sear, while simultaneously pulling the trigger bar (thus, trigger) past the break point, essentially resulting in a commanded discharge through a trigger press (via the sear). The FBI admits to these shortcomings, and immediately re-tested correcting these flawed conditions. The subsequent report, just released, resulted in ZERO uncommanded discharges. Last point: Even the case in point is in question. The holstered pistol in this report arrived with a specific recent scratch inside the trigger guard. The officer was holding keys in his right hand at the time of the AD. The FBI lab used a key to reach into his holster and successfully pulled the trigger, discharging the firearm. Afterwards, they found a new scratch matching the preexisting scratch, in the same location within the trigger guard. While not a definitive conclusion, it certainly takes away from the notion that this report proved P320's go off on their own. Postscript point: Sig's corporate response to their initial trigger flaws, denial and obfuscation to the initial (and ongoing) real ADs resulting from their "adverse trigger," failure to issue a recall in favor of a "voluntary upgrade," ongoing marketing and customer service arrogance, and general asshattery are legend. I think these factors give anyone inclined an absolutely legitimate reason to swear off their products just on principle. However, I think it is misguided to confuse a choice based on principle with the idea that there is damning proof that the current design is flawed. By the numbers, many more people have been shot with their own Glock that "went off by itself" - but didn't.
