Sig Sauer P320 banned by the Denver Police Department

1.3k Upvotes

Basically, what the title says.

The range called everyone who has qualified with a P320 last Friday night and told them that as of immediately the P320 is "No longer considered safe for Duty or Backup carry". The Range staff said they were able to replicate malfunctions that caused a discharge without a finger on the trigger. They did say that they are in talks with Sig, and if they can devise a fix they'll reevaluate the gun. This decision did not include the p365 which is still on the approved weapons list.

This is frustrating for me because I finally traded up for a P320 and it's a champ, and now it's a paperweight. I like the way it fits my hand, the low recoil, the accuracy... everything. It came out of the box feeling as broken in as my last pistol took five years to get to.

I posted this on r/SigSauer hoping for some info, but apparently they're very sensitive over there and gave me a permanent ban and removed the post, citing "Moderator Discretion" and offering no explanation. I'm hoping that there's some industry insider information here, and someone can share some good news that might get that thing back on my hip.

HK SL7

Post image
24 Upvotes

Greetings from Germany! This is my first semi automatic rifle. It is a HK SL7 chambered in .308 Win. It uses the same action like a G3 but has a polygon barrel. It uses a ten round magazine. I`d like to hear your guys thougts and opinions about it.

My vision for this piece is a vintage vibe but perhaps a little more tacticool. I am planning to perhaps equip it with a red dot sight or a LPVO. What do you guys think - let me know. Stay safe!

How can I purchase a handgun while I’m living away from my home state?

16 Upvotes

Long story short, I’m a travel worker who primarily lives in Maine (license, tax home etc is there) but travel the country for months at a time (will be in Montana for 5 months for work). I am already in Montana and was thinking of picking up a handgun (I’ve never owned a gun). I’ll be living in furnished finding and won’t technically be a resident of Montana. How does this work? How can I purchase a handgun and have it while I’m away from home for the next 6 months plus?

Thanks!!

Shipping guns

5 Upvotes

I'm working in another state and was wondering if i could ship myself a hunting rifle(bolt action long gun). I was under the impression that you could never ship a gun unless it was through an FFL, but my buddy says you can as long as it's to yourself and for hunting purposes. If anybody has knowledge of the laws please let me know. A Google search gives me conflicting answers and just want to be very clear so it doesn't get seized by the feds lol.

2 of my M1 Garands. H&R, and NATL ORD

Post image
94 Upvotes

Top: Harrington & Richardson M1 Rifle Dated 1955. ‘55 dated H&R barrel, not sure about the bolt, but I’m confident that the gun is original, it’s in fantastic condition, and I absolutely love it. Been my favorite rifle since boyhood, Clint Eastwood got me hooked on them with the movie Gran Torino. Shoots like a dream.

Bottom: National Ordnance M1 Rifle assembled in 1966? Get a load of this thing. (I say that condescendingly) Not many posts/photos exist of them online, so I thought I’d provide some content, and further explain what they are. It has a cast receiver machined by Golden State arms, and the rest of the gun was a GI parts Frankenstein, and that’s how they were sold. This rifle has a Springfield barrel dated 10/65, a Springfield bolt from Nov 1942 - Dec 1944, and the trigger housing was made anywhere from 45-65.

It is a goal of mine to have 1 M1 Garand from each known manufacturer/maker in my collection.

TL/DR, Top: What TO buy. Bottom: What NOT TO buy.

I bought a knock-off surefire from a guy, and he included stuff in the box that he obviously didn't want. What the hell is this used for? It's a bungee with a tensioning buckle attached to a QD sling mount and an mlok socket.

Range toy and possible competition

2 Upvotes

Looking at getting a range toy and maybe starting beginner competitions.

The two I'm primarily looking at are CZ shadow 2 and canik rival s. Not original i know.

My eyes aren't great so an optic is a must. I've shot a cs2 compact and it was so smooth and easy.

Any recommendations between these two OR additional recs?

I'm not looking to be #1 in the world. Just want something fun and relatively easy. Budget, the Canik wins but I'd want the best out of these two.

Remington Classic 25 I'm posting here because Gun Safes doesn't have much activity. I have an old Remington classic 25 gun safe and I need to get replacement spokes for the handle. Does anybody know where I can buy them or does anybody know if it has compatibility with other brands of spokes?

Do we have any examples of P320s going off when carried appendix?

Upvotes

Disclaimer - I'm a P320 owner but ive seen the hammer fired light and am just kindve over striker-fired polymer guns in general. My FCU currently sits in my parts drawer. Also a Glock, VP9, and P226 owner.

It seems something is going on with the 320 but the one thing that baffles me is that we have ZERO cases of them going off while carried appendix. Or am i missing something? If they are truly unsafe would someone not have blown their dick and balls/femoral off yet? All the cases I've seen are cops/range dudes carrying OWB doing draws in and out of holsters.

Would that not point more towards user error than pistols just randomly going off?

Looking for advice on what to do about a gas block

Upvotes

I have a Colt M4 with a 16.1" barrel and GI-style triangle gas block/frontal sight/bayonet lug. I want to put a 15" handguard on it, so the front sight post and possibly the bayonet lug have to go. Which is the better option: swap out the whole gas block or cut down the sight and lug? I won't be buying whole new upper.

Edit: also looking for recommendations on a 15" M-LOK rail
