Is that a Sig P320?
Yep.
sigh
Is it the one that shoots if you look at it wrong?
Well hopefully its not that bad...
...but yes, its the one thats been doing a whole lot of uncommanded discharges.
I'm uncertain of the 'precise' cause of this, but basically it isn't drop safe, and it appears to not even be 'stored in certain kinds of holsters' safe.
Even worse, sometimes, it'll go after... basically a random amount of time after its been jostled in the wrong way.
At least that's what I remember from when this was a whole big thing in guntube some months back.

stories

No no no!! You don't understand! The four-man stack of flesh as a battering ram pressed through a narrow openning has been around since cave-man days! Those cave men knew what's up!
Just ... ignore the cave paintings of mammoths getting chased into ambushes. Different discipline, all that "hunting" stuff.
