"One of America’s Favorite Handguns Is Allegedly Firing On Its Owners"

    Comment:  First post:  A most thorough article yet including animations of how the P320 gun works.  Second post rapid replacement of P320 by Federal Agency.  Third post is a more detailed explanation from the family of the man shot.  All to say firearms in the military are making the news.  Summary from these articles:  There is a lack of regulation of the firearms industry; the military has a huge investment in a gun that is unreliable;  training of security personnel dealing with what appears to be a medically induced security incident all show a need in dealing with firearms.

    SIG Sauer’s P320 pistol has wounded more than 80 people who say they didn’t pull the trigger — and no U.S. agency has the power to intervene.

    Federal Agencies Reject SIG Sauer P320 Amid Growing Safety Concerns

    ICE and the U.S. Air Force Global Strike Command are the latest to stop using the popular pistol, following law enforcement agencies across the country.
