WCP320 Carry any Issues Login/Join

I know there is a lot of “bad press” so to speak on the Sig P320. My old agency carries all Sig P320 and have done so since 2015. I have bought a Wilson Combat WCP320 Carry in 9mm. Can anyone say or point to these discharges without touching the gun that is supposed to be happening? The WCP320 does have a light trigger (1.45lbs to be exact), but I sure do not want any accidents with it. I am scheduled to take a handgun class in about a week and was wanting to use the WCP320 for some if not all of the class. It would give me an opportunity to run 300-500 rounds through it.

1.45lbs is pretty darn light for a P320 trigger. Are you 100% sure about that measurement? All the ones I've handled have been more than double that...usually 4-5lbs, which is still pretty light for what is essentially an SAO trigger in a carry gun. It doesn't take much of a mistake with a trigger like that to make the gun go bang when you don't want it to.

I'm with you. Everything I've read about that model says 3 to 5 pounds depending on whether or not you get the one with the GreyGuns trigger.

I wouldn't want a carry gun with a 1.45 pound trigger. That's more appropriate for a bullseye gun.

I have a 4 P320s in the house, 2 X5 Legions and 2 CW FCU built Carry sized guns. The two Legions have trigger pulls right under 3lbs and the two FCUs come in just over 3lbs. I am not sure that I would feel comfortable taking a class with a 1.4 lb trigger. My biggest concern would be the lack of trigger to “prep” and either over prepping the gun or mashing my way through without a good “prep”. I have a 1 lb SA trigger on a 625 S&W and it is scary light. If in fact your WCP320 has a pull weight below 2 lbs, I would think it was unintentional from Wilson.

I'm another 320 guy. The stated 1.4lb trigger makes we wary. I am NOT CERTIFED as a 320 Armorer, but I wouldn't be surprised if that fall below what SIG recommends for a trigger pull weight. You might want to check with Wilson Combat as well.

Question, how are you measuring trigger pull? When was your last calibration?

Op.. are you perhaps meaning the WCP320 has a trigger that is 1.45 lbs “lighter” than a factory trigger?

The Wilson Combat product listing for the WCP320 states this at the bottom of the Product Details:

quote:
NOTE: The Grayguns P320 Competition Hybrid Trigger System for the SIG Sauer® P320 is a drop-in, enhanced trigger package with competition sear for your P320 that reduces trigger weight as low as 4 pounds while preserving all mechanical safety values. Includes our hybrid trigger, with built-in over-travel adjustment. This system is for competition or range use only.


That implies that the standard, non-tuned trigger is heavier than 4 lbs.

I've spent a lot of time shooting 1911s with 2 lb. triggers. No way I would carry a P320 with a 1.4lb trigger. Not even for range use only. Is 1.45lbs the correct pull weight?

The obsession with the trigger pull weight not withstanding, run the gun in the class and enjoy it.

All non-intentional discharge involved a holster. No P320 discharged while on a coffee table untouched.
