On a different forum which is approaching 3,000 posts regarding the Sig Sauer M18/17/p320, with daily updates of p320 bans occurring at various training facilities for police and public as well as more bans at various police departments or police departments evaluating banning the p320. I am providing the following more recent developments shown below. "Sig themselves discovered primer strikes when the gun was subject to vibration. Here's a report, done by professional engineers in August 2022, who discovered that Sig had evidence of those primer strikes back in October 2021. Look at page 15 for the narrative, and 16 for the photos taken by Sig themselves. It's possible that those particular primer strikes weren't strong enough to ignite them. But the photos absolutely show that there can be uncommanded strikes. As to why Sig's written product contradicts their own photographic evidence, I can't say." https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XCGiOsP9aymOaEKg6pLSObYXM9tRBv4p/view?pli=1 The first FBI report from Michigan State Police p320 uncommand discharge incident which MSP then sent the M18 to the FBI for testing. https://www.outdoorlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/MSP-M18-Pistol-Evaluation_FINAL_Redacted_Outdoor_Life.pdf Dick Fairburn's video whom has first-hand experience in weapons selection program provided a very good overview of the issues with Sig Sauer as a company, the cost saving third party manufacturing (Metal Injection Molding) of parts and the p320. Yes, it is long video of 48 minutes. I recommend not fast forwarding through the video except for the sponsor section. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OuVWCVsn4Yo Air Force P320 Inspection Guidance Leaks https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZuywB41xi0k

From the gun store video, it looks like four long guns were stolen. Not sure if the burglars grabbed any handguns to put in their backpacks. https://www.franklintn.gov/Home/Components/News/News/11515/1801 The crime occurred just after 3 a.m. on Wednesday, June 18 at Outpost Armory on Lakeview Dr. During their investigation, detectives discovered that two masked burglars stole two firearms before exiting the store and fleeing with a third suspect in what is believed to be a red Hyundai Sonata or Elantra. Anyone with information on the suspects or their vehicle is urged to contact the Franklin Police Department at (615) 794-2513. Anonymous tips can also be submitted to Crime Stoppers of Williamson County here, or by contacting the organization at (615) 794-4000. If the information leads to an arrest, Crime Stoppers will pay up to $1,000 in reward money. The ATF is also investigating. Store security camera video.

Hi Will, I agree with your point. Just a clarification regarding Baby Face Nelson was shot 17 times is a misquote from the press due to a misunderstanding of the statement from J. Edgar Hoover stating "seven to ten wounds" to Nelson's body. In reality, Nelson received one .45 slug from an FBI agent Crowley’s machine gun to his lower abdomen that would eventually kill Nelson later that evening. Nelson also received 8 buckshot pellets to his legs by FBI agent Hollis. Unfortunately, both FBI agents were killed. Agent Crowley died at the hospital from his wounds and agent Hollis died at the shootout scene when he was shot in the head by Baby Face Nelson. The details of the shootout event are at the link below. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baby_Face_Nelson#Death

Also the Marine Corps is encountering uncommanded discharges. https://www.wearethemighty.com/military-news/sig-p320-engineering-review-recommended-in-marine-corps-report/ I am also reading from police firearms instructor/armorer that police agencies are starting to replace Sig 320 with Glock G45/47s , S&W M&Ps and Walther PDPs. And other police agencies have banned the Sig 320.

At one of the Glock centric forums, one of the members called Smyrna GA regarding the discontinued models and was told by a customer service representative: Another member posted a 2022 BATFE's annual firearms report that supports the Glock customer service representative's information at the link below. https://www.glocktalk.com/posts/33087369/

That’s profiling!

I noticed that the Associated Press left out Candance Owens as an influence on the shooter. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14318197/nashville-school-shooter-manifesto-hitler-candace-owens-solomon-henderson.html https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14315485/solomon-henderson-antioch-high-school-shooting-motive-revealed-manifesto.html

Monday, January 20th at 4:05 AM, five teens of ages 13 to 15 years old attempted to break-in using a likely stolen vehicle in an attempt to smash through the front windows of Arms and Ammo in Franklin. Thankfully the teens were unsuccessful and captured by the coordination of various police agencies. https://www.wsmv.com/2025/01/22/13-year-old-among-5-teens-accused-breaking-into-franklin-gun-store-using-vehicle/

The impression I had from reading the article is the mother, Marcee Gray and sister Brown discovered something after the shooter had already left for school. Neither parent is going to win any awards and the following information does not condone the shooter's actions. Marcee Gray criminal history: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13819865/Troubling-history-Colt-Gray-Georgia-school-shooting-suspects-family.html Family evicted leaving behind two German Shepherds: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13823345/Former-landlord-reveals-father-Georgia-school-shooter-kicked-door-retrieve-guns.html

The call logs show the Gray family contacting the school and having a 10 minute phone call with the school counselor and text message about a half hour before the shooting.

A password creator and password manager that I like to use since it does not use the cloud is KeePass. Most of my account passwords have different login IDs and passwords. Any breach of one site or company does not impact any of my other accounts.
